Many illustrious guitar players dream of the day when, they, mere musicians can own a pedal built by the oh so awesome Marc of Skreddy pedals. Well, guess what? I, Josh, a bassist, have attained what many guitarists dream of.
The Skreddy Screwdriver is an overdrive pedal that combines a boost circuit with a fuzz contraption. The result, awesomeness. Now, lets be clear, it looks hot. Just needed to get that out of the way. It's hotness can be directly attributed to the awesome cross graphic which is unfortunately no longer standard. Mr. Skreddy has moved to a powercoat red, which while still awesome does not rise to quite the same level as the old graphic.
Moving past the outside appearence we find that Mr. Skreddy has built into his Screwdriver a varity of tones that blows the mind of many. Including myself. It can do it all. Ajustments come from the 3 knobs on the outside which are from left to right, volume, gain, and sharpness. In addition to the 3 knobs there are 2 trimpots that are accessible from the side of the pedal through tiny holes and can be adjusted with a tiny flathead screwdriver. These trimpots are called brilliance and pre gain. They makes the tonal possibilities of the pedal quite epic. It can literally do anything from mellow gritty boost to FUZZ.
In conclusion. Skreddy has crafted himself an awesome pedal with the Screwdriver, it can do much and sound incredible while doing it all. Normally there is a considerable wait for this pedal due to it's superb awesomeness. However if you are aware it can be had every now and then at tonefactor.com
