"It's really transparent. It's really more of a boost. There's a little bit distortion to it that retains the character and the tone of the guitar, especially if you're playing the Strat. [...] You turn this on, and it just gets kind of a warm-sounding." - Greenberg about Bluenote pedal.

"It's just an old school, old CS-2. Compression is all the way off, and I use the buffer in it, because the buffer is also a lot important. Because if you have pedals with buffers, it gets your signal back to the place where you've had your cord straight in." - Greenberg about Boss CS-2.
