Andy Timmons Full Range Overdrive.
It's an overdrive workstation that allows you to orchestrate everything from a clean boost to a treble supercharger, from a chimney tube amp overdrive to a square wave, germanium fuzz generator, and more.
The Muse Driver combines a three-control blues driver circuit with two switches for the voicing of Drive and Tone characteristics. Robert and Andy developed these switches to give players a broad range of drive tones.

Set the Drive Switch up for AT Clipping - this mode features asymmetrical LED diode clipping and is Andy’s Super AT Mod sound, offering a bright and more articulate attack. Setting the Drive Switch Down for RK Clipping engages two germanium diodes for a smoother, slightly compressed drive which can sound a bit like a vintage fuzz pedal with a softer, smoother feel.
In the AT position, the Tone control features Andy’s preferred voicing and low-end response. Each note in a chord is clear and articulate. The RK Position features the legendary Phat Boost providing a more low-end frequency response, perfect for pushing up vintage or single coil pickups.
Every part of the circuit has been optimized for tone and the demanding needs of a recording and touring artist such as Andy Timmons. Simply adding the Muse Driver to your pedalboard will make your rig sound better. This professional grade overdrive can be switched between true bypass and buffered bypass at any time.
