BBE and Ozzy/Firewind guitarist Gus G. have teamed up to create the OG-1 signature overdrive
Huntington Beach, CA – (Jan. 24, 2013) – The music of Gus G and his band Firewind can be described as melodic, soaring and punishing – in short, metal masterpieces. But just as Gus is shaping the bleeding edge of metal, he is deeply passionate about its roots, as evidenced by his scoring the coveted gig as guitarist for Ozzy Osbourne.
For years, the BBE Green Screamer was Gus’ overdrive pedal of choice. But working closely with BBE’s legendary mastermind Paul Gagon, Gus has now dialed in his tone still more, for solos that power his vision for the modern metal realm:
“My new G Screamer pedal lets me drive even more harmonics, and they’re focused right where I need them to be for a cleaner, tighter distortion. It delivers explosive power with precision. It’s my new weapon.”
