Revv Amplification Joey Landreth Signature "Dirt Dog" Drive Pedal in Pearl White

Vintage Soul, Modern Reliability.

The Revv Dirtdog is a unique, musical overdrive born from the creative collaboration between Revv and Juno-winning artist Joey Landreth. Inspired by a quirky, handmade vintage amp Joey used extensively on his album Dog Ear, the Dirtdog was designed to bring that specific "small amp on 10" magic to a road-ready pedalboard format. This isn't just another overdrive; it is a touch-sensitive tonal companion that distills the bloom, sag, and rich harmonics of a 1940s-style circuit into a compact analog pedal.

Interactive Tonal Sculpting
The Dirtdog moves beyond standard "Drive" and "Tone" layouts with a highly interactive control set. While the Gain and Level knobs allow you to balance the organic breakup against your amp's front end, the true power lies in the frequency shaping. The Bite knob acts as a precision high-end control, dialing in everything from a smooth, dark warmth to a chimey, aggressive "Communication Breakdown" chug. The Tone knob is specifically voiced to shift the midrange character, moving from a punchy, mid-forward snarl to a chewy, vintage scoop.

From Clean Sweetener to Gutsy Grit
Whether you are using the Dirtdog to add a layer of "edge-of-breakup" complexity to your favorite clean amp or pushing it to its limits for a fat, singing lead tone, the pedal responds instinctively to your playing dynamics. At maximum settings, the Dirtdog begins to sputter and sag like a dimed small-box combo, offering a harmonically dense distortion that feels alive under your fingers. Hand-built in Canada with top-mounted jacks and true bypass switching, it is the definitive tool for the roots, blues, and slide player.
