Description
News
The Screamin Blues Overdrive / Distortion is designed for guitarists who need a pedal that responds to playing dynamics. Blues players in particular will love how the Screamin Blues gives them total control of their tone. Playing lightly gives you a mild overdrive, but dialing up the gain and digging in hard will make the Screamin Blues sing with ultra-rich harmonics and sustain.

Features

Level controls distortion output level.

Low adjusts boost and cut of bass frequencies.

High adjusts boost and cut of upper harmonics.

Gain sets the maximum distortion amount when playing your hardest.

Dual Outputs. The Amp output is for connecting directly to a guitar amplifier. The Mixer output features Cabinet Emulation circuitry for connecting directly to a mixing board or recording device.

"My secret sound weapon."
Feature:
The only knob that would make this better is a mid control. Other than that it's great overall and can take a beating.

Quality:
This thing seems bullet proof and I've been gigging steadily with it for over 2 yrs. now. My only complaint is it's a bit noisey but, hey I'm using single coils.

Value:
For 50 bucks I don't think there is a better distortion pedal out there. I'm probably going to buy another so I can have to two levels of gain...Steve Ray and Led Zeppelin and everything in between that you get with the picking responsiveness.

Desirability:
Like I said, I'm probably going to add another to my setup.

Sound:
I play this through a Fender Deluxe and a Boss EQ pedal, which definitely helps fatten up the sound. The first time i tried it I was blown away, especially since I have gone through numerous other distortions with bigger reputations.It works great live and what really impressed me was the sensititvity and response to lighter or heavier attack. I use an unmodified 57 reissue Strat and I can get distortions ranging from Stevie Ray to AC-DC.

Ease of Use:
It can't get easier.

Support:
Had no need for support.

Overall:
I'm surprised more people aren't using this but that's okay 'cause I'd rather sound better than them anyway.

"To sum everything up in one word?! Wow!"
Feature:
The knobs are all there except for one, the mid knob. You can still tweak the low and high knobs so that you get al mid tone, but I wish there just was a mid.

Quality:
There is no flaw what so-ever. The paintjob is realy nice two, sparkling blue!

Value:
I bought my Screamer combined with a original Dunlop Crybaby (recommendation!) and spent a total of €140,- (about $170,-), which is not a bad price!

Desirability:
The lay-out is magnificent, paintjob (as i said) really nice and the overall shape is not bad!

Sound:
The sound is pretty much what I've been searching for the last 6 years. Obviously, the Gain knob changes the screamin' of the overdrive. The sound of the gain fully opened is raw and, depending on the low and high settings, sharp or warm, and not the eardeafening grunt you get on, lets say the Digitech Death Metal.

Ease of Use:
This pedal is easy as in, even I know how it works!

Support:
I wouldn't know, for my pedal never let's me down!

Overall:
The only overdrive/destortion pedal I might consider in buying, apart from this one, is the Dunlop Fuzz-face. But that's just because of it's amazing apeal to me as a Hendrix fan. (Buy this one!)
