The Green Screamer is an overdrive pedal with three knobs: Level, Tone and Gain. It works by 9v battery (on the back of the pedal a little flap handy!) But in doing so I think we lose volume in relation to its use with a 9v adapter (mine works very well with an Ibanez or 9v a power supply).
From the beginning we are seduced by the look of the pedal (mine in the plane which gives it a little retro very nice) and its robustness. Everything here exudes quality and strength. Already
UTILIZATION
if you plug the device and leaving all the knobs at 12 o'clock, the sound is there.
Then we see that by turning the knobs are very comfortable to handle because they offer a slight resistance and then almost unroll beneath your fingers.
Everything is then a matter of settings, and they are fine, you can find your sound.
SOUND QUALITY
Gain allows you to go with a light crunch to overdrive "soft". Here no question of distortion or even large overdrive gear is built for blues, rock and roll, pop.
The sounds you will embrace different styles; chorus to Hendrix, agreements crunch, the rhythmic Vaughan etc ...
The Green Screamer is also a great boost to muscle behind a distortion sound or in front of an amp on the distortion channel to add grain and color the sound (it works very well with a Peavey Delta Blues and an Orange Tiny Terror) .
OVERALL OPINION
I use the BBE Green Screamer for almost a year now and I found a lot of charm and a welcome versatility on any pedalboard.
For a reasonable price you TubeScreamer a high quality (I have many times played on TS9 and it sounds like in my memories) that you will open your sonic palette by simply changing the space on your chaining.
