In this video I want to show you a Demo of the VL Effects Greentone Overdrive Pedal. This pedal is in the family of tubescreamer style overdrive pedals, but this pedal is a lot more versatile in my opinion.

You can check out VL Effects Here Vincent is a great guy and hand makes some of the best pedals I’ve ever used. They are built like a tank and should last a very long time.
Sounds great man! I love the “art” on the pedal — definitely boosts the curb appeal haha.

I didn’t see the Greentone on his site but based on the prices of his other pedals it’s WAY out of my price range. I’m not sure why he would charge so much.
The best sounding and most flexible OD pedal I’ve heard to date — of course, your playing and tone always sound killer irrespective of the hardware. But as Andy pointed out, that price tag is in tube amp land. Shame they can’t bring the price down, because I’d get one yesterday. The cost of these boutique pedals have me wondering if a digital stompbox might be the way to go…
