The DRI VE ME CR AZY is developed by EBS with input from several
Swedish top session guitarists. It turns any nice clean guitar combo
amp into a full force high gain stack. The Drive Me Crazy features
dual drive engines and low-range compensation.
Can I use it with bass too? The Drive Me Crazy offers a dynamic
drive sound for bass with a lot of edge to it to cut through the mix.
The low-range compensation preserves the bottom of your sound
when the ef fect is used with bass.
