The Revival Drive Compact. What can I say that hasn’t already been said? This is the third Origin Effects pedal I have purchased. The other two, The Cali 76 Compact Deluxe and The DCX boost, preamp pedal sound amazing! And as far as The RDC this will be the second time I have purchased this pedal. The first time I decided on the full size Revival Drive. Unfortunately, that pedal I pawned during an occupation change and by a terrible mistake let my 90 days lapse. I went to pay on the items and as I was waiting in line I seen the giant Revival Drive out front in a display case and I was devastated. Anyway now that I have found steady income I decided to go with the smaller version. It is much easier to dial in great tones. It’s more difficult to get a bad sound then it is to get awesome sounds out of this unit. But this review is more about zZounds B- stock inventory. I have purchased factory resealed items from zZounds on a number of occasions and couldn’t tell the difference between the resealed and brand new. However I was skeptical about the blemished inventory. Well my skepticism was put to bed. I can’t find a blemish on this unit. There is very minor scuffing on one side but it looks like it could be the way the pedal was made if I didn’t have the other side to compare with. Even with that being said I’m still not 100 percent sure if I am looking at scuffing. Bottom line I saved over $50 on this unit labeled blemished yet it looks and sounds great. With the no credit check payment plan I have obtained some great gear I never would have otherwise.
