BBE Green Screamer Vintage Overdrive Pedal Reviews

6 People rated this product :

"Buy this pedal!"
Feature:
It came with an adapter! Most don't, and it sounds like an original Green Screamer.

Quality:
This is a tight fitted pedal, hasn't broken down on me after some serious hard gigging with it. Brings a whole new meaning to the term "stompbox". No cosmetic damage after throwing it around, and after dropping it in a puddle fully submerged, it still sounds great.

Value:
Get this and don't spend more money on other overdrive pedals. It's a waste of time.

Desirability:
I own it. I loved it the first time I used it.

Sound:
Sounds fantastic, excellent tone, good highs lows and middles, great for using as a plain boost as well.

Ease of Use:
Three knobs, self explanatory on the labels, easy to step on to turn it on or bypass it. I love it. Easy in and out, clean audio signal both ways, works great with every amp I've used.

Support:
Not necessary for something this good.

Overall:
Like I said, buy this pedal and don't waste any time. It lives up to the name, and I wouldn't trade for any other overdrive pedal.

BBE Green Screamer OD Customer Review
Feature:
I hear these things come with an adapter which is pretty awesome. The controls on this little guy are basically the same as on a TS9. Very durable and easy to tweak!

Quality:
This pedal has a metal chassis that is basically indestructible. I have gigged and gigged with no failure. The battery lasts forever...or as least i can't remember changing it.

Value:
This is the best $100 you'll ever spend if you're looking for a clean overdrive just mean enough to scare a few folks.

Desirability:
The Bright blue LED light rocks! You can see it a mile away which comes in handy in those dark bars.

Sound:
I have been using two Ibanez TS9s for as long as I can remember. I found a green screamer at randomly at my local music store and tried it out. Long story short I bought it immediately. It took me three websites to find a store that wasn't sold out. It's everything that a TS9 is...with a little more grit.

Ease of Use:
Ain't much to this one. If you can't figure out these controls maybe you should try another hobby. One thing I really like about it is that the knobs are really heavy duty and have a little resistance so they don't move while you transport you gear.

Support:
No problems here...haven't had to call.

Overall:
I had no idea what I was looking at when I was this thing in the store. And like I said, now I'm back buying another one. Let me tell you something...THIS PEDAL WILL BE A CLASSIC! Once the industry catches on BBE won't be able to churn 'em out fast enough. Trust me! I've turned a number of guys on to these things already and none have been disappointed.
