General

Since guitar pedals tend to emphasize the middle and high frequencies, they're not really the best option for keyboard players. Fortunately, Lounsberry Pedals and Roger Powell have thoughtfully designed a special series of pedals that all cater to keyboards, including this Organ Grinder here. Fitted with a so-called clonewheel, it's an intriguing bit of kit that makes for an award-winning team in combination with a Wurlitzer or Fender Rhodes, and can make a world of difference when it comes to authentic instrument sound.

The Lounsberry Pedals OGO-1 Organ Grinder Analogue Preamp/Overdrive

So, the Lounsberry OGO-1 Organ Grinder is a true bypass-ready preamp/overdrive pedal designed to simulate tube-sound, and truth be told, it's quite a successful design at that. A touch of overdrive quickly results in authentic tone, and the more you turn it up, the closer you'll get to the sound of tube amps in old leslie speakers (so Roger says). Next to a true bypass switch, the Organ Grinder is outfitted with a Level and a Drive pot.

Steam Punk Graphics by Mark Hershberger

The steel housing of the OGO-1 sports a candy apple red powder coating and steam-punk artwork by artist Mark Herschberger. In terms of power supply, you can either pop in a 9V battery or hook up a 9V adapter (neither are included, unfortunately).

Tested once and is of an amazing quality built into realistic tube like distortion but with that natural overdrive typically caused by tubes saturation.

Ik gebruik het pedaal samen met de Viscount Legend Live via de effect in en uit. Het geluid is erg goed. Het voordeel t.o.v. de interne drive is dat je het level zo kunt instellen dat er geen volumeverschil optreed tussen clean en drive. Dat is voor live situaties erg handig. De kwaliteit en het uiterlijk is erg mooi. Aangezien ik het pedaal met de hand bedien is de voetknop wel wat zwaar. Kortom: een aanwinst voor een mooi Hammond geluid met drive.

ik heb dit pedaal 2 weken geleden gekocht om het hammond geluid van mijn NS3 meer te laten scheuren. Ik ben heel erg tevreden, het is letterlijk plug & play.
De Lounsberry heeft slechts 2 knoppen, erg overzichtelijk en de sound is traploos in te stellen.
Je kunt als alternatief ook de AMP sectie van de Nord gebruiken, maar dat klinkt toch anders.
Ik ben er erg blij mee!
