Conclusion
The Drive Recovery pedal from Thrilltone sounds great. No doubt about that part. In the very crowded sector of the overdrive pedals, it's very difficult to propose a new product. The two stage drive pedal is a great feature to have in a pedal because you can easily dial a rhythm tone and a lead tone on the same pedal.
The Character setting is one of the strong point of this pedal as it allows to really change the structure of the gain, going from an very dynamic type of drive to a more compressed one.
The price is probably a bit high at 269€ (around US$ 300) as you can find a lot of great overdrive pedals from established brands for a lower price.
Until the next gear review, keep on playing the guitar !
