The PERSIAN GREEN SCREAMER aims to attain the ultimate tube screamer sound. I've combined a typical tube screamer circuit with one of One Control's own designs. One Control believes that this effect has to have the ability to create a vintage original sound and yet have an authentic modern underlying tone. That’s where BJF circuitry comes into play. The PERSIAN GREEN SCREAMER is a pedal that creates a vintage TS sound and a modern overdrive sound pedal at the same time. A switch has been added to the side of the body for exactly this reason. You can switch between two modes, Vintage & Modern. One Control felt like this was essential to satisfy the wants of players while encompassing these two contradicting elements. The Vintage mode creates beautiful distortion that is unique and similar to the “TS-808.” It is a creamy, warm solid tone. Its dynamic range is not too broad and the mid-range is emphasized. The classic TS effect was described sometimes as "nasal", yet we were able to attain a perfect balance through advanced circuitry design. Vintage mode can create a perfect vintage sound with single coil pickups or P-90. It’s a bit different with a humbucker or high-output pickup, but sounds vintage when placed before Granith Grey Booster (GGB). Suppression with overpowered output is the key. The Modern mode allows for a 'transparent' overdrive for a perfectly clean boost. It gives life to the guitar and amp sound without changing it drastically. The overdrive can be used like a preamp or a compressor as well. You can change the gain easily by adjusting the Volume knob or by changing your picking strength. It has a wide-range and high response. You can leave it on throughout your performance in order to give a thickness to your guitar tone. In Modern mode, you can adjust the TONE setting whereas in Vintage mode, you cannot. The Modern mode is compatible matches any guitar whether single coil or a large-output guitar. Sudden transformation of the vintage TS sound into open and clear sound surprised everybody but they really liked both modes. You can also use the pedal as a booster if needed. Simply set DRIVE to minimum and LEVEL to maximum. On the other hand, the TONE knob adjustments are limited to allow minor and specific changes to your rich and subtle sound. Few players use the entire level of TONE on the TS808. Why? Because changing the tone on the guitar is more effective. If the tone is changed dramatically on a TS effect pedal, it creates a sound that is too 'light'. Therefore, One Control established a range that is limited yet required by guitarists. The PERSIAN GREEN SCREAMER operates under high voltage when used with up to an 18V adapter. With higher voltage, head room is increased to allow even richer expression while reducing the gain slightly. It is an effective way to add variations to tones. The ability to switch between the perfect vintage TS sound and a modern sound just by sliding the switch is what made it the overdrive that everyone was dreaming of. The PERSIAN GREEN SCREAMER shocked the world, now try it for yourself..
