Little is the New Deadly. GHOUL SCREAMER JR is a super powerful overdrive circuit, wrapped in a micro-sized box. It is the smaller, meaner brother of our Ghoul Screamer, featuring the most used settings at half the size and twice the gain. Yes, it goes to 11. This ghoulie is powerful enough to be your main overdrive and also works great for boosting an already pushed amplifier or bringing out the best from its neighbours on a pedal.
Controls
- DRIVE Controls the gain of the circuit. At lower Drive settings, GHOUL JR operates as a clean boost, with a characteristic medium bump. For more distortion, turn the Drive knob up to increase harmonics, compression, and power. Remember: the usual gain range is from 1 to 10, but GHOUL JR will take you to 12!
- VOLUME Controls the overall output volume of GHOUL JR.
- TONE An active high-frequency tone control. At 12 o'clock it is neutral. Rotated clockwise, it becomes raw, aggressive, and helps you cut through the mix. Rotated counterclockwise, it reduces the highs for a softer, warmer tone.
- VOICE is the bass and body control. CENTRE is the base setting. UP enhances the low frequencies to fatten your tone and add massive low-end, while DOWN improves the tonal response in the mids, as well as tightening the tone and clipping, particularly effective with guitars in lower tunings.
- STYLE Offers three levels of gain and headroom. UP is your base setting, with the most compressed classic sound. CENTER brings a more dynamic, cutting tone. DOWN is a completely brand-new mode with the most aggressive, fullest setting and a bonus dose of gain for sustain and cut-through and more.
- FOOTSWITCH Activates GHOUL JR in “on” mode or True bypass.
