BJFE Pine Green Comp. - Wow!

[Adam Zaiger]

I picked one of these up for a reasonable mark-up a few months back figuring I could ways re-sell it if it wasn't for me.

Well....finally got around to plugging it in the other day, and frankly I am astonished. It sounds great at high-comp and low-comp settings.

It's hard to describe, but it just sounds "right"....so natural and not artificial at all.

I now understand the hype and buy into it. This thing rocks.

My PGC is easily my favorite pedal ever... Man, I can't believe you had it for months and have only just tried it! You were missing out big time!

 

[brettmoor]

Sort of missing mine recently...I do love the Mad Professor FGC too!

Yep. It's the one that does it for me. Firmly attached to my board since 2006.

Thanks again Brett. I'm excited for it!

Anyone tried the BJFE against the Mad Professor Forest Green? Any differences?

They are different circuits...and the MPFG has a sustain mode. The PGC adds a beautiful sweetness to the tone that i've never heard from another pedal before.

The best move is to get a BJFE PGC DLX, if you can find and afford (usually they go for around a grand on those rare occasions where one surfaces) one. That way you have both the standard PGC beauty and you get the sustain mode of the FGC, too. Frankly, I almost only run my PGC DLX in the sustain mode.

Yes, had both. Kept the PGC. Definitely adds some magic that the otherwise excellent FGC just doesn't have. Pixie dust or something they say. I dunno. But it's beautiful.

Got on the waiting list in October. I don't expect it anytime soon.

Sorry if this has been covered a million times already, but any word on whether Bearfoot will ever be making these?

If plans are in the works, Donner's lips are sealed. No mention or hints that I am aware of.

 

[durbanpoison]

Well, he's hinted that they might be making a BF PGC:

[MasterEvan07]

Ooo, that'd be cool...I have been keen on trying one...

 

[letloverule]

well there now is a BF PGC to all those interested.
