One Control Persian Green Screamer
One Control · pedal
The One Control Persian Green Screamer is a Tubescreamer-style overdrive designed by BJF (Bjorn Juhl) for One Control of Japan, offering switchable Vintage and Modern voicings. Vintage mode delivers a creamy, warm, TS-808-like overdrive with emphasized midrange and valve-like character, while Modern mode opens up into a more transparent, less mid-humped overdrive that boosts an amp's own voice without overshadowing it. The Tone control ranges from round and warm to a snappy sizzle, and the circuit stays notably quiet for a Tubescreamer-style design. It suits blues, classic rock, and hard rock players wanting either an authentic vintage Tube Screamer voice or a more open, transparent modern alternative in one pedal.
