1981 Inventions DRV - vs - ProCo Rat

A quick, informal comparison of the 1981 Inventions DRV to a ProCo Rat. The DRV is a distortion/overdrive pedal designed by Matthew Hoopes of Relient K and Jon Ashley of Bondi Effects. It's based on a Rat circuit but with a number of adjustments made to offer different sounds and capabilities. Here I compare a DRV to my vintage ProCo Rat to highlight the similarities and differences. ------------------------------------------- Unless I state otherwise in the video, everything I test out on here is stuff that I bought myself. There are no paid reviews on this channel and only a couple times have I ever had items sent to me for review. All opinions are my own!
