MGR/Green Machine.. where ya been? « Aramat Effects Green Machine »
Published on 12/16/03 at 15:00Price Paid: US $135
I correponded with Keith via email one week.. ordered it the next.. and had my slimy paws on it the next.. and I live in Australia.
..very happy
..easypeesy ..setting up is a non issue.. plugin.. and THE sound is there! ..a little tweaking later and you're in orbit!!
No manual is necessary.. its all in the ear.. the tone I've been hunting for..
It inspires me to play better 'cos I sound better..
What I DON'T like? ........ er.. sorry can't think of a thing..
I've only just purchased the green machine but I reckon by looking at the
sturdiness of it ..it would outlast just about anything I could throw at it.. very tough looking unit.. hammond box, switch and knobs are definitely of industrial strength.
.....with a sound to match!!
Our band plays a mixture of 70s blues/boogie (skynyard.. zz top.. muddy etc.) and I'm using a 100w 'woogie' head (marshall clone) thru quad box 4 X 12 eminence spkrs.
An Ibanez RG440 and a LP (for slide).. on the floor: -> Crybaby wah -> Green Machine -> BD2 Bluesdriver -> Danelectro Coolcat chorus -> Ibanez DE7 delay.. I noticed I had to lift the bass on the amp head a bit ..but then it IS a pedal with a shitload of bite!
What can I say? ..I've used a considerable amount of o/d pedals in my time (20 or so years of various (Boss OD1s ..Jen.. BD2.. J-Station etc.)
But I gotta say I think I've finally got the one I want!!
Its got that "jangley" harmonic that other pedals seem to lose in the clip.. Its more full in its range than a tubescreamer..
with more middle being the keyword.. and at that price? ..unbeatable!
