Description
Long before boutique pedals existed, guitarists chased the woody, organic breakup of a certain British amplifier lineage that powered players like Jimmy Page and Paul Kossoff. Xotic distilled that vintage character into the SL Drive, a compact overdrive/distortion built for anyone who wants amp-in-a-box authenticity without hauling a half-stack.
What sets the SL Drive apart is its dual personality. Flip open the internal dip switches and choose between two voicings modeled after the classic 1959 Super Lead and Super Bass circuits: Super Lead delivers a brighter, higher-gain edge, while Super Bass thickens things up with more low-end push and a softer top. Both settings respond dynamically to your guitar’s volume knob, letting you dial back for cleaner, chimey tones or push forward into full saturation just like riding a real tube amp.
Built into a rugged, small-footprint enclosure, this pedal is made for working musicians who need reliability on crowded boards. True bypass switching keeps your signal path uncolored when the effect is off, so tone stays pristine through the rest of your chain.
Power it with a 9V battery or standard AC adaptor (neither included). This listing includes the Xotic SL Drive pedal, instruction manual, and original packaging, plus two 6″ patch cables to get it connected on your board right away.
