  • robertkeeley.com/Germanium+Su... The BD-2 Blues Driver is one of the earliest Keeley modified pedals. It is a wonderfully complex circuit that has many layers of tube amp simulation. It’s a Fender Super in a box essentially. It is dynamic and expressive and captures many tones that guitar players love. Fast forward 16 years and Keeley has added a germanium amplifier stage right after the tone stack to simulate a tube power amp section. The result is a more aggressively voiced overdrive with a spongy compression and fuzz that only germanium transistors give. The Germanium Super Phat Mod - Hand Built Edition not only has the perfect JFETS for tone, it has the attention to detail only a hand built product can provide.

    Second day in a row I woke up singing that intro riff. What a cool thing Mike.

      This might be the fuzz pedal for those who can't get the articulation required out of a fuzz. LIKE ME.

    Bought One, :)
    A very loud and bright pedal. In Flat mode I seem to lose all bottom end (Bass Cut) and my Strat sounds so bright, a high treble boost, not the normal EQ as stated. (into a Marshall DSL401).
    Therefore to get a flat response and the bottom end back I need it in Phat mode with the tone at about 11 o'clock.
    It's so loud, I find I need to turn the amp down so I can have the pedal gain at about 10:30 and volume at 10:00. It has such a great crunchy Fuzziness. Really opens up and gives such a clear fresh tone.
    Great sounding and very responsive

    That sounded just great! Want one :) But, will it play nice with a buffered signal?

    • @RobertKeeleyTV
      @RobertKeeleyTV 6 років тому +9

      Yes, we've taken care of the concern by placing the germanium amplifier in the center of the SPM design. You don't have to worry like you might with a standard fuzz face like germanium fuzz.

    • @josefeld7164
      @josefeld7164 6 років тому

      Robert Keeley that is awesome, always a bummer If pedals dont work with a buffer.

    You have so many amps, but you use the Swart for these videos a lot. Any particular reason why? (Sorry if this is off topic.)

    Mike Hermans continues to contribute to the impoverishment of guitarists everywhere with yet another stunning demo of a new product. Guess I'll get my cardboard sign and go stand by the roadside and panhandle for a few days.This has got to stop. :)

      @mattgilbert7347 6 років тому

      I like this but D&M covers more bases.
      If you got a Tubescreamer or Klon-stlye pedal (eg EHX Soul Food) and the SPM Ge you would be set. No need for a D& M.
