OVERDRIVE- BARONI LAB Bernie Marsden Overdrive... a bad video a great guitarist what the F.

 BARONI LAB BERNIE MARSDEN OVERDRIVE 

Baroni Lab from Italy have been making both tube amps and pedals for years.
All are handmade and the quality is there. A lot of their pedals can be a love or hate thing
because they are not afraid to go their own way.
I have their ISLAND DG it is an OD but they use the Fuzz like voice of a pair of Germanium tranisters
best know as the sound of the Fuzz Face Hendrix first used. The pedal is a hybrid of Fuzz/OD. All the controls are set up just like your average OD.

Bernie Marsden played in White Snake in the 60's. He still plays and does a lot of clinics.
he has an actual 59 LP that he bought when Clapton traded it in on a 1960 because the neck on the 60's is slimmer. LOL
Yes back in the late 60's a 59 LP was a 'used guitar' not something that god himself made. lol

OK...check out Bernie ...he is the Stevie Ray of the LP. He quite simply is all about exquisite tone
straight from his fingers. He is not about speed and shredding.
You 'will' be impressed!! I was going to listen for a bit to get a handle on the guy ...I not only sat glued to the vid I immediately checked out a few more.

So back to the pedal. It has only just come out and there are no reviews. But this vid from the NAMM show will give you an idea.


NOTE: Not much of a demo!!!! The guy was overkilling the lows and gain. Bernie pulls out a lot of mids in his tone. We got to hear maybe 15 seconds of that at 1:19!!!
I will up date this pedal at a later date. 
In the mean time check out Bernie. Since the 60's every player worth listening to went time after time to hear Bernie play at a concert ...no mater who he played with!!
