Up for adoption is my EXCELLENT Riverside Multi-Stage Drive pedal. It sounds fantastic with any guitar you plug in: PAFs or single-coils or flatpole pickups, etc. It's crisp, biting, with rich saturation you can dial in easily.

I bought this pedal new in 2023. It's never been gigged or recorded and has lived in my temperature- and humidity-controlled music studio since I got it. It has less than an hour of play time on it.

I have a plethora of drive pedals, don't use this one, and it needs to go to a home where it'll be cranked and loved.

There are two very small dings on the bottom of the enclosure - otherwise, there are no scratches or bumps. The original box includes a Strymon sticker and the pedal's original adhesive feet.

It requires a 9V power cord (not included).

The sticker on the box shows the price I paid - $299. You'll get it for much less here.

No trades, please.

From Strymon:

Multistage Drive

The first stage of Riverside’s custom multistage drive topology is an all-analog, ultra-low noise, discrete, class-A JFET circuit. This gain stage is digitally controlled to maximize headroom while adding up to 20dB of pure analog gain, with tight integration to the subsequent DSP gain stages.

With our hybrid approach, you get the best of both analog and digital worlds: The JFET stage provides exceptional touch sensitivity and dynamic interaction with your guitar, while the incredibly powerful SHARC DSP facilitates the great level of detailed complexity and responsiveness you’ll want to hear.

Riverside’s continuously variable circuit tuning dynamically tweaks multiple parameters under the hood so that the sweet spot follows you at any gain setting. As you turn the Drive knob, Riverside makes continuous adjustments, tuning the circuit for optimum tone. This results in an incredibly versatile drive pedal, equally capable of providing sparkling cleans, mild overdrive, high-gain leads, and heavy saturated distortion.
