G&L makes pedals??

Ran across these auctions on eBay:

http://cgi.ebay.com/G-L-BUCKSHOT-Overdr ... 20b4e6ca04


http://cgi.ebay.com/G-L-DOUBLE-BARREL-V ... 588ac5824c

Obviously I am aware of the pedals offered by BBE, but was not aware that "G&L" actually sold pedals.

The auctions state "brand new", so should I assume that these are in current production? The G&L website has no mention of these unless I am blind and could not find them.

They were announced during 2010 Winter NAMM. See the News page on the main G&L website.
I also posted this on the Let's talk G&L lnstruments sub-forum.

When the products are ready, G&L will update their website and I will also post about them here, too.

Stay tuned.

The Double barrel looks interesting

I bought a prototype Buckshot pedal several months ago and it's great!

How does it compare to the BBE Green Screamer? By the description it sounds like a different animal. The Green Screamer as I understand it is another Tube Screamer clone.
I'm not a real "pedal" guy, but I bought a Green Screamer last year and I find I use it mostly as a clean boost to hit the front end of the amp a bit harder and make the tubes work a bit more, with the gain on '0' and the level on '10'.

I checked with Dave (aka Darth Invader) and he said:

"They arrived and we started shipping them. Unfortunately they're not on our site yet as the photographer is going to shoot them tomorrow. Then we'll get some demo vids up."

So, you might check your local G&L dealer to see if they have any yet.

Hope this helps.

Very cool...I've been in the market for a new overdrive pedal and this looks sweet.

I'd like to find one that's gonna make my single coils (Strat and my soon to be born G&L ASAT) (YEAH!!!) sing. I'd imagine that these would fit the bill.
