Imagine the ability to
combine the best and defining characteristics of different overdrive
& boost pedals in order to create hybrid sounds no one has ever
played through before. That is exactly what we've engineered with the
Noble Screamer. It’s a 4-in-1 pedal that gives you two very familiar
drive circuits and two brand new amp-like overdrive and distortion
tones. It’s almost like pedal-modeling, except these are 100% analog
circuits, and you decide which tone-control or clipping-section you
want to play through. Toggle between battle-tested, classic overdrive
effects or innovate your sound using new hybrid tones; let your ears be
the judge. Even with all of these features, the pedal remains a
user-friendly three knob overdrive. The innovation in the Noble
Screamer doesn’t end there; our new design features true-bypass or
buffered, truly silent switching, on the fly. The Keeley Noble Screamer
Overdrive and Boost is entirely manufactured at Keeley Electronics and
is the first release in our new aluminum enclosure.
Tone Control
Broad
Spectrum Tone Control or Narrow Focus Filter Control: The Noble
Screamer gives you two tone control circuits to choose from. When the
Tone Switch is up and in the OD Position you will hear a 'Spectrum" type
of tone control that has the ability to go from a flat EQ to an EQ that
has a boost in the treble and bass response. If the Tone Switch is in
the TS Position you have a Low Pass Filter that rolls off the high
frequencies only.
Diode Clipping
Hard
or Soft Clipping: The Noble Screamer gives you both styles of diode
clipping. Diodes are used to create hard clipping distortions or smooth
overdrive sounds. If the Clipping Switch is in the OD Position it
features Hard Diode Clipping which is an edgier, more aggressive tone.
When the Clipping Switch is in the TS Position that uses Soft Diode
Clipping, like a tube amplifier softly overdriven.
Noble Screamer Has Both Buffered and True Bypass
The
Keeley Noble Screamer features our Vitamin K Infused Buffer for noise
free switching. We have developed an amazing sounding buffer which not
only makes your rig sound better, it gives you silent switching with no
tone loss. No more pops and clicks to distract from your music. If you
want to turn that feature off and go back to true bypass, simply press
and hold down the foot switch for two seconds and the pedal will switch
to True-Bypass (LED will flash twice). True Bypass is great for players
that want the effect of plugging directly into their amp when the pedal
is off. Alternatively, players that want a strong and clear signal even
when the Noble Screamer is turned off, simply hold the stomp switch down
for two seconds and the effect is back to Buffered Bypass (LED flashes
three times). Enjoy truly silent switching and let your music be the
only voice.
Made In The USA
We
design, engineer, and manufacture the Noble Screamer in Oklahoma City.
Everything about the Noble Screamer is geared towards the professional
musician and their quest for an inspiring tone when the performance
demands it. From the inside of the pedal and its meticulously built
circuit boards and metal construction audio jacks to the outside of the
effect its newly fabricated aluminum enclosure; we make guitar effect
pedals to be finely crafted musical instruments.
