John Dyer Baizley

"I’m gearing-up for our upcoming trip to Australia and New Zealand, and I’ve been wanting to update my low-gain-drive for this tour. I decided to try out the MXR Double-Double Overdrive this morning. I could not be happier. I have barely cracked the surface of this OD, and I’m already a huge fan of the dynamic range with the Treble and Bass settings, as well as the fact that there are two internal Gain circuits (so it’s as comfortable with a growl as it is with a roar). The harmonic overtones are nice and warm, there’s plenty of headroom and full-bodied chords ring extremely true through this stomp. The true test is when this thing hits the stage; but with as much boost as it’s capable of, and the aforementioned characteristics, I hardly think there’s any cause for concern. Another extremely fine job by the folks at MXR." John Baizley - Baroness

"This Week in Pedalboards: THE PAUL COCHRANE “Timmy Pedal”. I am a MASSIVE fan of transparent, low-gain drives. They are indispensable for me to slightly color my amps, and more often than not, to feed into fuzzes and higher gain devices. I like to think of them as preamps for my pedal circuit. The Timmy’s been in my rig for a few years, and when I’m recording, its much easier as a smooth guitar EQ than so many of the outboard hardware devices that fill up studios or the actual knobs on many amps. The range of gain is, as i said, fairly low, and that makes it a great “fine-tuning” tone shaper, as well as a great box for playing rhythm parts which would suffer from being either too clean or too distorted. It has a great deal of output gain comparatively, and allows you to really accentuate highs or lows (sorry mids, you’re not part of this one.) You can really drive a tube amp hard with it. This isn’t a drive pedal to use across the board; it’s very specific, and i use it surgically; but thats not to say i dont use it frequently. Think of it as something in the “Klon universe” of sounds (that doesn’t quite do it justice, but it’s a reference point.) Highly recommended."
