This is a classic overdrive in a compact, pedalboard-friendly enclosure.
The East River Drive maintains the character of your guitar and playing style while adding an edge to your tone that ranges from mild overdrive to gritty distortion.
True bypass switching keeps your tone intact when the pedal is bypassed.

FEATURES

• Great for getting some dirt out of a clean amp or pushing your dirty amp over the top
• True Bypass
• 9 Volt battery included
• Optional 9.6DC-200 power supply available
• Tough, compact die-cast chassis

CONTROLS

• DRIVE Knob Controls the amount of input gain. As you turn DRIVE clockwise,
the overdrive ranges from mild edge to classic distortion.

• TONE Knob Emphasizes a range of tones; from bass to treble as the TONE
knob is turned clockwise.

• VOL Knob Sets the output volume of the EAST RIVER DRIVE.

• FOOTSWITCH and LED The footswitch selects whether the EAST RIVER
DRIVE is engaged or in true bypass mode. When the effect is engaged, the LED
will be lit.

• INPUT jack This 1/4 jack is the audio input for the EAST RIVER DRIVE. The
input impedance is 375.

• AMP jack This 1/4 jack is the audio output from the EAST RIVER DRIVE. The
output impedance is 250.

• 9V Power Jack The EAST RIVER DRIVE can run off of a 9V battery or you
can use an optional 9VDC AC Adapter capable of delivering at least 25mA to the
9V power jack, such as the EHX9.6DC-200. The AC Adapter must have a center
negative plug. The battery may be left in or taken out when using an AC
Adapter. The EAST RIVER DRIVE has a current draw of 6mA at 9VDC

A mainstay on the chain, this is a great little OD pedal and is every bit as good as the more expensive vintage pedals I've owned.

I love this pedal. Great subtle grit to heavy overdrive. I can't tell the difference between East River Drive and TS808.

The tonal character of this drive pedal is fantastic. From subtle to great rock or blues drive. Highly recommended.

Performance Warranty Banner

Protect your investment with the Long & McQuade Performance Warranty

A warranty can be a very important factor when making a buying decision. Because repairs can be very expensive in terms of parts and labour costs, manufacturers usually only provide one year limited warranties that generally only cover items that malfunction due to a manufacturer’s defect. With an important purchase such as a musical
instrument or piece of studio gear, however, many people want to have the peace of mind in knowing that their investment will be protected should the product no longer be performing at 100%.

Because of this, Long & McQuade provides our customers with a FREE one-year Performance Warranty on most of our products. The Long & McQuade Performance Warranty supplements the manufacturer’s warranty to ensure that our customers receive complete “no hassle” warranty coverage within their first year.

How does the Long & McQuade Performance Warranty differ from most manufacturers' warranties?
  • Performance Guarantee: Normal wear and tear is covered, so your product will be performing as well as the day you purchased it for the entire duration of the coverage. Band and Orchestral Performance Warranty does not include replacing pads or cleaning for woodwind instruments, unless deemed necessary by our repair staff. Ultrasonic cleaning for brass instruments will be provided if deemed necessary by our repair staff, but is not routinely offered under the Performance Warranty.
  • Product Replacement: If your product cannot be fixed or costs too much to fix, we will replace it with the equivalent model for no additional charge. If this is not possible, a full refund will be provided.
  • No Lemon Policy: Your product will be replaced should the same problem occur multiple times.
  • Convenient: Easy drop off and pick up of the product at any Long & McQuade location.
  • Guitar Setup: Guitars purchased at Long & McQuade come with 1 free setup, to be redeemed within 1 year for new guitars and 90 days for used guitars.
  • Loaners Available: A loaner product may be given while the product is being repaired.
  • Power Surge Protection: Your product is covered even if damaged from a power surge.
  • Accessory Coverage: Any peripheral devices or accessories that come with your product (i.e. foot pedal, case) are also covered.
  • Commercial Use Coverage: Music and recording professionals who purchase gear for “heavy-use” commercial purposes will still be covered.
 

Long & McQuade reserves the right to restrict the purchase of additional years of Performance Warranty. Used products come with a 3-month Long & McQuade Performance Warranty. Some products (i.e. computers, software, cymbals and other items) are covered only by the manufacturer‘s warranty. Consumables (i.e. strings, reeds, drum sticks, batteries, tubes, cross faders) are excluded as they are designed to be replaced. Cosmetic Damage, Accidental Damage, or problems caused by Humidity or Temperature Issues are not covered. Speakers damaged by overpowering are generally not covered. Our coverage does not provide compensation for loss of use. As of June 2018 the Performance Warranty is no longer transferable. The warranty is only valid in Canada.

Purchasing additional years of coverage

Some manufacturers provide warranties for longer than 1 year; however, these are usually limited warranties that do not provide the same coverage as the Long & McQuade Performance Warranty. Customers interested in more complete and convenient (but not necessarily longer) coverage are still able to purchase additional years of the Performance Warranty.

If you are interested in receiving this coverage for longer than one year, you have the option of purchasing additional years of the Performance Warranty. The pricing is as follows:

  • NEW products: 4% of the current new selling price to double the warranty from 1 year to 2 years. 4% for each additional year.
  • USED products: 4% of the current new selling price to increase the warranty from 3 months to 1 year. 4% for each additional year.
  • GUITARS: 4% of the current new selling price to double the warranty from 1 year to 2 years. 4% for each additional year. $45 maximum. An additional free setup is not included with additional purchased years of Performance Warranty.
  • BAND and ORCHESTRAL instruments: 4% of the current new selling price to double the warranty from 1 year to 2 years. 4% for each additional year.
