Can anyone identify what it is and why? Never seen it on one.

It could have been used as a "dirt" boost though with envelope effect off (via the toggle switch). There are definitely times that he sounds a bit "dirtier" than his normal clean sound yet not a distortion pedal dirt. Just speculation though.
