4.0 out of 5 stars Good Pedal, March 3, 2010

This review is from: BBE Green Screamer Vintage 808 Overdrive Guitar and Bass Pedal (Electronics)

I bought this pedal as an overdrive for my 59 Fender Bassman. It sounds great for blues, country, rock, and punk. I did have some intermintent crakle sound problems with the pedal when I first got it that required some tinkering with the internal circutry. I do like that the pedal does come with a ac adapter because batteries get expensive quick. Just as previews reviewers have stated, the gain is slightly high end shifted meaning that the pedal produces most of it's break up high in the frequency spectrum. I tend to like my sound with a little more low end then this pedal produces but if I am playing the aforementioned genres then this pedal cuts through perfectly in both live and studio mixes. I don't recomend this pedal for metal and I only recomend playing this pedal through a tube amp as it was intended.

I bought the Green Screamer just after Christmas and have used it for three gigs since then. It has a better bass than the Ibanez Tube Screamer that I have been using for at least 10 years. The design, parts used and especially the true bypass make this a winner. The pedal has a real switch that you can feel when it engages, the tone is almost instant Santana and makes it easier to play, especially with a Fender tube amp. I play Blues and Pop music with a Jazz touch and have been playing for 43 years. Favorite guitar to use with the Green Screamer is a Telecaster and the amp is a Fender Blues Deluxe.

4.0 out of 5 stars Green Screamer --- A darn good pedal, December 24, 2008

This is an Ibanez Tube Screamer clone. It gives a nice tube like break up. Also a bit of a volume boost if you want it, though you can twidle with the knobs to get to unity gain. It's one of those effects you can leave on all the time. It has slightly less low mid range than the Ibanez, and slightly more upper mid break up. Definitely an overdrive, not a distortion. I like it. All in all, a darn good pedal. Plus it comes with a 5 year warranty, a battery and a wall wart! Whoooo-hoooo! I got it at one of the amazon affiliates for a great price, amazon and musicians friend were a lot more.
