Bearfoot FX Model G
Bearfoot FX stellt hochwertige Boutique Effect Pedale her, die allesamt von Björn Juhl persönlich designed wurden. Das Motto dieser Effectschmiede lautet “Better than Amp-Like!”
The Model G captures the unique voice and response of an often overlooked brand of amps from the 50s/60s : the Gibsons that were right there at the beginning with Fender, Valco,Vox, and Marshall-- somewhere near the tweeds and Supros but with a stronger and clearer voice and a particular upper-mid sound & snarl. The Model G is related to the Bearfoot Honey Bee the same way a Gibson Falcon or GA40 is related to a Supro: cousins with obvious similarities, but important differences.The volume, drive, and nature controls are on both models; the C knob is a big part of the difference - it controls several things at once: the upper-mids EQ and snarl and slight speaker compression, like adjusting to different speaker choices and ages or even like moving a mic aimed at the speaker.
About the color: the Model G started out as a limited edition of 10 units for the 10th anniversary of BJFE a few years ago. It was Bjorn’s most expensive drive pedal ever and had a special paint job that used gold leaf over black. For the BearFoot edition we chose Sherwood Green for the Sherwood Forest band of merry men who 'took from the rich and gave to the poor' … G = Green and Gold.
Bearfoot FX is the brainchild of Bjorn Juhl of BJF Design and Donner Rusk of Donnerbox. Every pedal is handpainted and no two are exactly alike. The pedals now ship with a plain, unpainted bottom plate to help ensure the most secure contact with adhesive Velcro for use on pedalboards. Bearfoot FX pedals are handmade in St. Louis, Missouri, USA.

BJFe/BearFoot have built a reputation for building the most “amp-like” guitar effects around. Our pedals not only sound, but feel and perform like the amp features they emulate: the early Tweed/Blonde/Plexi response of the Sparkling Yellows, the warm, tube-like equalization of the SBEQ, or the perfect emulation of amp/speaker compression from the Pale Green Comp. BearFoot FX pedals reproduce the sounds of your favorite recorded amps and they do it at any volume through any clean amp. Yes, you can stomp through your collection of the most musical amp tones ever made and even the best compression, EQ and modulation in exactly the amounts you need to sound like…YOU! That’s better than amp-like.
