Value For Money :
Excellent
Overdrive pedal.
Settings:
-Level
-Tone
-Overdrive
-Switch Warm / Hot
Switch activation (bypas true!)
LED staut (visible)
Input / output jack
Boss-type connector for external power supply 9V (required, there is no battery power)
It is a metal box, which seems correct strength. It still feels the Chinese manufacture, assembly level and the overall look but nothing alarming.
Miniaturization has a price: the level and tone knobs are not very convenient to handle. Large fingers will galleys.
UTILIZATION
Usage is very simple, it is in the classical setting.
Nothing is easier than editing sounds.
The manual is more than enough. No such adjustment but is it really necessary on an overdrive?
SOUND QUALITY
Then the sound.
It seems that the Green Mile is a clone of the famous Ibanez Tube Screamer, with no basis for comparison, I can neither confirm nor deny.
In any case, it sounds! Caution is the overdrive, not the distortion! Even at the bottom drive, it's still rock 'n' roll. For AC / DC hairy, will have to push back to the amp.
If the knobs are responsive and usable throughout their race.
Warm in position, drive it nicely, it's precise and well defined. By engaging the Hot it gets fat and hairy, there is more than to grow a beard, put on boots and a Stetson and go for the big rock to ZZ Top!
The small problem that does not make me a better rating is that when going in Hot, greatly augment the volume and vice versa. In this is no big deal, but on stage it requires to adjust the level at the same time with the approximation that entails.
OVERALL OPINION
I do not have this pedal for a long time, so I can not judge its place in the long term.
I have not tried other model before I bought the'm on a whim and I had no experience of overdrive distortion being more metal. The Blackstar HT-metal allows me to get crunchy sounds but remains ultimately quite "metal" character. With the Green Mile, I have true overdrive.
It is without hesitation that I would do this choice, the price / quality ratio is excellent!
It's good!
