Carl Martin / Hot Drive'n Boost MK3 / Effect For Sale
Hot Drive'n Boost MK3
The anniversary Hot Drive’n Boost MK3, featuring a complete new overdrive design that gives an even more authentic “tube” simulating overdrive than the original HDB, which is known to be one of the best.
The new HDB MK3 sounds like a tweaked up quality tube amp, and on contrary, nearly every other overdrive pedal does not change the original tone, has no midrange pronouncement, no low end cut off, no high-end cut of, all that gives a tone of a clear brilliant tube drive of its own.
With the BOOST feature, the Hot Drive’n Boost MK3 is a “TWO IN ONE” pedal. That allows you to get that extra “kick” (up to 20db) for solos to really stand out.
The Hot Drive’n Boost MK3 has a built-in regulated (+-12V) power supply. This enables us to design circuitry of the highest quality with maximum headroom.
The low output impedance insures a lo noise connection and gives improved working conditions for the guitar amp.

ESR was founded in 1990 as a professional PA sound rental company. Shortly after we began producing custom made audio equipment.
Our goal was from the very beginning to develop and produce products for the demanding professional musician, with a superior sound quality and features not seen on any other guitar effect pedal. As a result of that our first guitar effect pedal, The Hot Drive'n Boost, was introduced in 1993.
Due to our extensive knowledge of the professional music industry, and our contacts with a wide range of demanding musicians, we have been able to maintain a high quality of products and now have a range of 28 high quality guitar effect pedals, with more to come in the future.
In 2005 we released our first point point handmade tube amplifier the Custom Shop 50, the line now includes heads,- caps as well as a bass system.
