Greer Amps Introduces the Southland Harmonic Overdrive

Greer Amps Introduces the Southland Harmonic Overdrive

The pedal features more gain, a focused midrange, and a bit of presence on top of the signal.

Athens, GA (September 24, 2014) -- We are happy to announce the release of a new product. The Southland Harmonic Overdrive is our newest offering, in the Greer Amps line. Building on the Lightspeed platform, we have developed what we believe to be the best overdrive on the market. The Lightspeed was built with the specific purpose of being a light to mild overdrive. The Southland is the next logical step for the Lightspeed platformā€”more gain, a focused midrange (not that annoying ā€œhumpā€), and a bit of presence on top of the signal, to help cut through the mix. This pedal, like the Lightspeed, is touch sensitive, responds to pick attack, and has dynamics that just wonā€™t stop. On top of that, weā€™ve selected a chip to drive the Southland that takes it to the next level.

The Southland is available for dealers to pre-order now. We will be officially releasing these, for shipping, and publishing them on our website on October 14, 2014. We will be building up a stockpile of these units, in hopes that we wonā€™t get bogged down on the production side of things with the Southland.

When the first Moog synthesizer appeared, it freaked out a lot of musiciansā€”not least for the way it blurred the divisions between instruments and their roles. Was it percussion? A keyboard? A reed instrument? Many effects makers build from this philosophical foundation. The Latvian company Gamechanger often seems to revel in itā€”an attitude thatā€™s manifest in the companyā€™s Auto Series pedals, which includes the Auto Reverb.
