This is something brand new and I feel honoured to be one of the first to try it. I hope I've done this mean little beast justice.

So, what's it all about? Let's hear it straight from the builder, Keith Aviles of Machine Head Pedals.

"The Code Green is the pedal of choice when subtlety is not desired. It provides either a fundamental wrecking ball tone for harder music, or authority for solos or parts of songs that need to stand out. It is not a mere noisemaker. The top end has been shaped to keep it from being overly bright, the lower frequencies are plentiful, and the midrange has
been tailored to enhance sustain. It treads where other fuzzes and such pedals might not completely reach.

The Punch and Shove controls are highly interactive and dependent upon where each is set. Punch controls both the gain and the overall frequency spectrum equally. At lower settings it is focused and fairly tight, and can even be notched sounding. At higher settings the frequency response opens up, the bass increases, and distortion becomes much more aggressive and fuzzy. Shove controls gain as well, but also controls boost more than Punch
does. It also adds more top end at higher settings.

...For tight and focused - Punch low and Shove high (relatively speaking).

...For gargantuan and heavy on the fuzz - Punch high and Shove low (relatively speaking). Moderate amounts of both will blend these characteristics, and add others. With extreme settings on both controls, all bets are off!

  • How does it sopund on a Guitar people can effort? Try that. Thanks

  • @ProbTron Try this: Learn how to spell, think, convey some sense of self dignity and intelligence, and not make a total dick of yourself in front of the international community. Blocked.

  • @Burgerman666

    Well maybe I should talk Dutch?

    Tis een onzin ding en commercieel. Ook de rijke kids gebruiken voor de vid is een beetje eng. Het geluid is ok trouwens. Helaas wat die gast speelt is nietzo geweldig.

  • @ProbTron De gitaren die ik gebruik zijn standaard gitaren. Het talent is het niet. Dat is aan jou. Elke gitaar, pedaal of versterker kan een fantastisch geluid in de juiste handen. Periode. Speelgoed speelgoed zijn. Talent is talent.

  • Hi Burgs,  were those new pickups on your SG? If so what are they? Sounds very good as usual =)

  • Yeah, thanks for asking. I get a fella called Mick Brierley to handwind pickups for all my guitars. Mick's a legend over here in Oz. An Englishman that found himself here somehow, he does incredibly detailed work. Now it's bloody hard to use any other pickups at all! Google Mick Brierley. He's not expensive and he's very, very good. Thanks for watching Fredster!
