Full Description
View Full DescriptionSignature tone from a punk rock classic
The MXR DD25V2 Dookie Drive V2 delivers the unmistakable sound of Billie Joe Armstrong’s guitar tone from Green Day’s groundbreaking Dookie album. It recreates the dual-amp setup used during recording, where two heavily modified amps were blended to produce a unique balance of saturated distortion and articulate clarity. One amp was set up with scooped mids and heavy gain for searing aggression, while the other focused on defined midrange to cut through the mix. The Dookie Drive V2 captures both and lets you blend them to taste, unlocking a punchy, dirty, yet musical tone that's instantly recognisable to fans of punk, rock, and pop-punk genres.
Dual gain circuits for ultimate flexibility
At the heart of the Dookie Drive V2 are two discrete gain circuits—Crunch Gain and High Gain—each voiced to reflect the sonic characteristics of Billie Joe’s original amplifiers. With separate controls for both circuits, you can craft your own mix of tight mids and raw bite, or push one to dominate the blend for more aggressive or more refined textures. This setup isn’t just about replicating a classic sound—it also opens the door to a range of distortion tones that go far beyond the original album. You can shape sharp attack for rhythm work or rich sustain for lead playing, all with the clarity and bite you'd expect from a high-performance drive pedal.
Limited edition artwork with rugged build
The DD25V2 isn’t just about sound—it also makes a visual statement. This version features limited edition artwork inspired by the explosive elements of the Dookie album cover, reimagined with a sleek brushed aluminium enclosure that’s both eye-catching and durable. The juxtaposition of bold, cartoonish graphics against industrial metal gives the pedal a unique personality, making it as much a collector's piece as a tone tool. The rugged housing is built to withstand the rigours of touring, rehearsals, and pedalboard reshuffles, so it’ll hold up no matter how hard you push it in a live or studio setting.
Built for the stage and studio
Practicality meets performance with the Dookie Drive V2. It runs on a standard 9-volt battery or via common pedalboard power supplies such as the Dunlop ECB003 adapter, DC Brick™, Iso-Brick, or Mini Iso-Brick (all sold separately), so it’s easy to integrate into your existing setup. The compact footprint means it won’t take up too much real estate on your board, and its intuitive layout ensures quick tweaks during rehearsal or on stage. If you need raw, expressive distortion with rock-solid reliability, this pedal delivers every time.
