Description

The Browne Amplification Gritador takes inspiration from an iconic version of the "green" overdrive pedal. From Stevie Ray Vaughn to John Mayer, this particular "TS" stompbox has been part of more recordings than any other overdrive pedal. This, however, is the version that Browne Amplification's resident genius in chief has tweaked to perfection! He dialed in the mid-range to be more nuanced, still producing that classic signal bump but without some of the inherent "nasaliness" that can sometimes plague this circuit. He also altered the clipping to be slightly less symmetrical, and ajusted the low-end to yield more fullness while still maintaining a tight and punchy bass response.

Why 'Gritador', you might ask? Because it means "screamer" in Portuguese, of course! This is Dave Brown's favourite version of his most treasured overdrive. Just plug it in, and let go. This thing really does scream! It has soft switching with an adjustable startup state and a beautiful glossy 'Bullfrog Belly Green' colourway, keeping the Gritador in the militaristic aesthetic loved by fans of Browne Amplification.

Overdrive

Like a golden layer of melted cheese — warm, gooey, and just put it all over. It adds just the right amount of richness and grit, turning a clean signal into something smooth and savoury. Designed to mimic the natural breakup of a tube amp pushed to its sweet spot, overdrive delivers the flavour of classic rock and blues in every bite. From creamy mid-gain warmth to crisp edge-of-breakup sparkle, it’s the comfort food of guitar tone — simple, satisfying, and endlessly versatile. Whether it’s a mild crunch or a full-bodied roar, overdrive is where good taste begins.
