Does the Zendrive Live Up to the Hype? (Full Tone Test)

This week I’m trying the Zendrive for the first time to see if it’s really as “special” as people say. I’m running it into my Orange TH30 (clean channel) and using a Schecter Nick Johnston Telecaster to test everything from low-gain touch sensitivity to the highest gain tones the pedal can deliver. There’s also a backing track improv (by Backing Tracks by Tim) so you can hear how the Zendrive sits in a real mix—not just isolated tones.
