User Comments regarding the Bias mod upgrade: Hi BK, I got the Tube Driver with Bias last week and was too busy to. Butler Audio Inc is not responsible for. Demo of the Chandler Tube Driver Rack. This is a little different than the BK Butler Tube Driver (I'm told). This is one of my most favorite Effects Units! That cool Joe, I also prefer a lower gain NOS preamp tube in my Tube Driver. I have the 3 knob Tube Works/BK Butler model like what Andy Timmons uses. Joe is 100% correct about the voilin tone. You need a cranked up Plexi style amp with the Tube Driver, Echoplex, reverb, and optional compressor. EJ use to use a TC Sustain in the old days. I love my Keeley Compressor to fill those duties. Also don't overlook the effects of a non true bypass wah on the signal path. I get a way better violin tone when my Vox wah is in my chain (really helps mellow the sound). Chandler Tube Driver PedalSuggested Tube Driver settings: Volume 9-10 o'clock, all eq knobs to '0', and gain to taste. My gain settings are between 11 o'clock and noon. Don't forget the 12AT7 or 12AU7 tubes. They are a lot less harsh and the gain is much more controllable with these tamer tubes. Genz Benz acquired the rights to Chandler. So now they are the same company. BK is still in business though. I own a 910 and a 12AU7 will make the best sound in the world. I will slightly disagree with JB here in the need for the plexi, although the route he suggested is certainly correct. Though he is one of the high priests of tone (much respect JB), one fact was overlooked: two BK TD's stacked through a cranked black face bassman or bandmaster. ![]() Of course no Fender guitar, instead a G&L Legacy! I am on again off again with my Bk Butler Tube Driver w/bias mod. I definitely need to try a 12at7 or a 12au7 in mine. It can be a little harsh and raspy and I assume that is because I still have a 12ax7 in it. The only other problem I have had is getting it to cut through in a band situation. You guys are going to ignite my GAS for a plexi. Just once I would like to play through a rig that has the late 1980's EJ tone on Austin City Limits! I'll bet the Good Lord has those rigs lined up in Heaven! Is it also true that Tube Drivers work better at high volumes?

Hylafax install centos 6 to usb. not sure if these are what I'm looking for. Check The Gear Page dude, they are on sale there quite often for way better prices than eBay. A new BK one with the bias will probably run you between 250-300 bones.
