Discover Mezzabarba’s Latest All Tube Preamp Pedal

 

Founded in 1998 in the scenic Etruscan town of Farnese, Italy, Masotti Guitar Devices and its high end brand, Mezzabarba Custom Amplification, have made a name for themselves among rock enthusiasts both in Europe and around the globe. Their amps, renowned for a combination of raw power and crystal clear tone, are entirely handcrafted in Italy, setting them apart in a market dominated by industry giants. With a firm dedication to original research and development, Mezzabarba Custom Amplification focuses on creating gear that offers a modern edge while breaking away from the repetitive designs seen in many amps today. 

The latest offering from Mezzabarba Custom Amplification is the Even Drive, a compact, all tube preamp pedal. Inspired by the MZero Overdrive Head, the Even Drive is designed to capture its powerful, fiery tone in a portable format. This preamp pedal uses two 12AX7 tubes to deliver the signature warmth and dynamic range Mezzabarba is known for. Ideal for both studio settings and live performances, the Even Drive is built to deliver exceptional sound quality with no signal degradation.

The Even Drive is more than just another overdrive/distortion pedal, it’s a full all tube preamp in pedal form. It offers two distinct modes to cater to various playing styles. In "Overdrive" mode, the Even Drive delivers a smooth, focused tone, making it perfect for genres like Pop, Blues, and Classic Rock. It maintains all the natural compression of the tubes, giving players rich dynamics and plenty of sustain. For those looking for a more aggressive edge, the "Distortion" mode is where the pedal shines. This mode offers a tight, fluid sound with saturated distortion that is perfect for Modern Rock and Metal, all while maintaining clarity and harmonic depth.

Built with premium hi fidelity and military spec components, the Even Drive is engineered for durability and superior performance. With an internal operating voltage of 350Vdc, it ensures high quality sound at all times. The pedal features a true bypass switching system, using gold plated relays to preserve your tone when the pedal is bypassed. It’s also equipped with a cathode follower for pure tube buffering, ensuring seamless integration with other pedals and amplifiers. 

FX Pedal Planet Online Store is proud to announce that we will be stocking the Mezzabarba Even Drive pedal. Guitarists can finally experience the magic of the MZero Overdrive in a compact, pedal sized format that fits into any rig.

The Mezzabarba Even Drive is designed for guitarists who demand excellence, whether they’re recording in the studio or playing live on stage. With easy maintenance, high quality construction, and a robust, dynamic sound, it’s an ideal addition to any pedalboard.
