The best tube screamer I have ever used!! Sounds great with any guitar and more versatile than a ts9

Great sound & very versatile. Unlike my other overdrive pedals

I'm not a TS guy but I was tired of my "transparent" overdrives. Still I don't care for the midrange bump and lack of bass of Screamers. But the extra knobs seemed interesting. The first thing I did was 5 out the knobs and put the switch on "Classic" (original Green Rhino mk I) and as expected got everything I hate in a TS. Flipping the switch and moving the bass to about 8 and backed the mid back to about 3 got a nice sound I used for practice for a week. Then I was wishing it reacted to the amp more, in other words coaxing controlled feedback and sustain through pushed tone frequencies as opposed to piling on more gain. Putting the mids back to 5 or a bit more did it. Also there, with the bass on about 9 I found my "transparent with more garlic" tone. It is truly the "Tube Screamer for everyone".Less

It just feels great to play

I'm always looking for certain overdrive tones and so I have a bunch of distortion and overdrive pedals, some tube and some analog and so why the Green Rhino right? The thing that intrigued me the most were the fine tuning knobs that allowed for frequency and curve adjustment, which is something that I don't see on a number of overdrive pedals. Its usually tone, volume and drive and if you have something like a Chandler or Real Tube (I have both), you get high medium and low tone control, but nothing that works on specific frequencies. First off, the Green Rhino gives you what I think is a much wider range of tonal options than other overdrive pedals. Its durable and the sound is really transparent even when using the volume control on your guitar. What's also great about the Rhino is that when flatpicking individual strings, you can dial in a really clear tone that doesn't bleed into itself even when using other effects (i.e. chorus or delay). Here's the downside, this is not the warmest pedal that I have, my tube pedals are far warmer, but a little less transparent. So if you are using the Rhino, with a tube amp, no problem (I used a Vox AC30), the amp offsets the harshness of the Rhino. If you are using a solid state amp, then its a different issue, you may want to using a cheap tube overdrive unit in bypass or low active mode to warm your tone, which is what I did with a cheap solid state amp. I also have an inexpensive Behringer VT-999 pedal and ran that after the Rhino in bypass mode and that solved the warmth problem and when you dialed in the Behringer, it gave you some additional cool tones, but my focus was tone warmth. The Rhino is a different kind of overdrive, than some of the other well known overdrives, but I think that its versatility stands alone, which is why this is now a permanent resident on my main pedal board. I think if you try one, you will truly appreciate what the Rhino can do. Way Cool Way Huge!Less

I can't even guess the number of overdrive/distortion/metal pedals I have ranging from gritty pieces of junk to expensive collector's item boutique boxes and for what I do there are two pedals I demand using for the last couple years which are the Green Rhino and the Dark Matter... For tightening up already very dirty amps/pre-amps this is it! I own the Maxxon overdrives every heavy dude considers to be the standard of tightening up metal amps but they don't touch the Green Rhino! The 100Hz fine tune knob is so great for dialing in extra punch in your tone and I actually love the tone of this pedal so much I dial up the distortion on it, max the volume and cut a little gain on my amps (ENGL Fireball 100/Marshall JVM410H). You have to watch for some signal clipping sometimes but if that's the case just dial out some volume on the pedal. In my experience you CAN NOT go wrong with Dunlop's Way Huge pedals!Less

Was in the market to replace my old Boss OD-1 that had finally given up on life. Read all the reviews, then watched all the youtube video's, and this pedal lives up to the hype. I've been playing with it for 3 weeks now and so far, best replacement i could have asked for.
Feedback:
I like playing different guitars and this thing works!! A gretsch,a tele,a paul, a PRS, try them! The unique means in dialing in your sound via a drive pedal. Have fun....
