Ok so this has been a hard call but I've made a decision to let go of my Fuchs Plush Drive. They describe this as Robben in a box and it does just that and a bit more thanks to its "touch" control. Minor scuffs on top from normal use. I'm looking to get $110 shipped within con. US I'll have pics up later!

Re: FS/FT: Fuchs Plush Drive
I'm interested in buying it, but I would like to know a few things. I have played the Valve Job which I heard was the Plush Drive with a preamp tube. The problem I had with it was that it only sounded good at the end of my signal chain, after my overdrive. It only sounded and responded good if I had the touch almost full on, the input level up high, and the gain way up high. I did not like how the controls interacted, but I loved how it smoothed out my tone to where it sounded a lot like Eric Johnson.
How would you describe the Plush Drive and how the controls interact? Also PM if Paypal is accepable. Thanks.

Re: FS/FT: Fuchs Plush Drive
Pretty much the opposite of the feel you described. I find it very touch responsive with the feel almost off and it just gets tighter and less "squishy" (my way of saying less of a sag feel) the higher you bring the feel control. I've run this in several spots at different points of my pedal chain and I didn't notice a big difference. I love this pedal both as a overdrive and also as a clean type preamp, I used it on a Bad Cat Cub II and when I had it on clean it gave it a much more rounded fender type feel. My only gripe would be that it can be a bit dark on some amps. I've used it on several Fenders and Vox amps with great results. The volume does not have to be cranked and I favor the gain at about 12-3 o clock for a nice singing overdrive.
