Description
Built alongside Firewind’s Gus G — a player who’s shredded arenas with Ozzy Osbourne and still keeps one foot planted in classic-rock tone — the G Screamer takes the beloved BBE Green Screamer circuit and sharpens its focus for high-gain lead work. This isn’t a vintage-worship pedal; it’s a modernized sequential-diode distortion stage voiced for players who need their solos to stay defined even when the amp is already running hot.
On the board, it earns its spot as a lead-boost/overdrive stacked in front of a saturated amp channel, or as your main gain source if you’d rather keep the amp cleaner and let the pedal do the dirty work. The 1MEG Ohm input impedance keeps your pickups loading properly for full harmonic content, while the 10K Ohm output impedance when engaged means it plays nicely with whatever’s next in the chain — wah, delay, or straight into the amp.
- Gain, level, and tone controls for dialing between crunch and singing sustain
- Modified classic sequential-diode distortion circuit for a focused, cutting midrange
- 1MEG Ohms input impedance for proper pickup loading
- 10K Ohms output impedance when engaged
- 1% metal-film resistors for consistent, repeatable tone
- High-voltage poly caps for improved clarity
- Military-spec circuit board for road-ready reliability
- Blue status LED, easy-access battery compartment
- True hardwire bypass keeps your dry signal untouched when off
- 5-year warranty
A gain stage engineered by a working metal guitarist, refined with BBE’s Paul Gagon — built to power leads that pierce a wall of amps without turning to mud.
