CHARACTERISTICS of the Tube Screamer? So there are guitarists who do not know the pedals!

Joke hand, it is a design classic pedals. I find it nicer than Boss but also think more in terms CHAC battery (9V but you can also use an AC adapter). For he is in a trap located under the pedals which do not ncessite disassembly always too long.

UTILIZATION

The basic principle of such pedals is relatively simple. APRS having branch, it RULES three pots:
- Drive: the saturation level
- Tone: Tone is expected one but it's actually a plutt SETTING THE mdiums band (as a electro-acoustic amp). This requires a familiarity.
- Level: the output volume.

SOUND QUALITY

I use a Danelectro with various amps and in each case, the sound is to go. This as said, the particularity of rglage "tone" I demand an adjustment period and made me even hsit with a Boss SD-1 but had a better Tube Screamer Agues got my rendering. The SETTING THE saturation is gradual trs.

I first bought it because my amp is a lamp Stimer Garen 1962 and then dpourvu channel saturation. The rendering is plutt organic and warm (normal is analog technology) and it is easy to forget that it is a machine transistors. It also works perfectly in front of a Pignose.

- Crunch: Grand musical.
- Satur: Crmeux and blues-rock hope. The pedals offer a contribution in sustain (sometimes I got too) while having a brand personality trs. This is an excellent saturation, but that of pedals, not that of an amp.
- Mtal: Do not saturate enough. For this aim plutt a Pro Co Rat.

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for 9 months. I like the sound organic, progressiv of rglages. As said prcdamment I hsit with a Boss SD-1 (trs good and half price) but I found the Tube Screamer more subtle in its tone. It said so much, I think you pay the price of the legends more than enough, however, this is a legends MRIT: This is terrible for PDAL blues-rock.
