Vertex T Drive Owner`s Manual

VOLUME

Adjusts the output
level of the effect.

TONE

Why no tone knob? The T-Drive
has a “built-in” EQ designed to
work in conjunction with your
amplifier’s natural EQ, shaping
itself according to how you’ve
adjusted the tone knob(s).

PRODUCT
MANUAL

The T-Drive is a sonic recreation of the legendary
Trainwreck™ Express amplifier. Rooted in the
tradition of British amps from the 60's & 70's,
Trainwrecks™ are famous for their fast pick response
and their exceptional dynamics from chimey "Vox"
style cleans, to a soaring "Plexi" overdrive. To most
accurately recreate the harmonic complexity of
the Trainwreck™ amps in a stompbox, we took
painstaking measures to find a "real deal"
Trainwreck™ Express to compare for sonic
accuracy & consulted longtime Trainwreck™ user
Glen Kuykendall for guidance, providing us with
recordings & feedback A/B-ing his Trainwreck™
against our T-Drive prototype. Our quest to create
the most accurate "Wreck-in-a-box" has resulted in
the T-Drive, a pedal with the dynamics, harmonic
complexity, and "voice-like" overtones reminiscent
of the amp it was inspired by.
