1981 Inventions LVL Overdrive

I happened to get my hands on the newest pedal from 1981 Inventions, the LVL. This is only the second pedal they've ever released, and I was favorably impressed by their first one, the DRV, so I was excited to check this one out. If you aren't familiar, 1981 Inventions is a boutique pedal company started by Matthew Hoopes of the band Relient K. As a huge, lifelong Relient K fan, I've always been interested in what he's up to. ------------------------------------------- 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!
