G-TOD: User Comments

  • TONE TONE TONE!
  • The G-TOD is one amazing animal.
  • It sounds way sweet. Cops “Funk 49″ to a “T”.
  • This thing goes from clean to mean with great in-between breakup.
  • The G-TOD is everything I thought and more. Still switching around on different amps with different tubes. Each amp has its own sweet spot with the G-TOD.
  • As far as note definition this pedal is the king. Most pedals DO loose clarity but the G-TOD remains transparent.
  • Here’s the coolest part. This thing cleans up beautifully with rolling back the guitar volume. Not a hint of hair. I do not know of any pedal that does this.
  • The first gig I used it with my strat I had guys coming up to me asking how I was getting my tone!
  • I set my G-Tod on Drive 1 with gain at “0″ and warmed up my POD 2.3 bean wonderfully.
  • FYI everyone… I got the SWELL G-TOD a while back and absolutely fell in love with it.
  • I FINALLY found something that doesn’t color the tone of my guitars and amp.
  • I tried it with my Mesa Boogie Maverick, and I think I saw God.
  • The best way I can think of to describe this pedal is… It makes me feel completely “connected” to my instrument.
  • You know it must sound great when the band and the soundman actually notice something is different, and comment about how good the tone is.  That’s what happened when I used it on the first gig. Now, all my friends here in town are scrambling to find one.
  • Now I don’t have to work so hard trying to pull those subtle nuances out of my axe.
  • It’s pure, musical, and harmonically accurate. I hear alot more “hand tone”.
  • This pedal sounds amazing across the board!
  • From bluesy to full throttle modded Marshall - it’s got it all.
  • The tone knob is really musical sounding not harsh or floppy, so tweeking is a breeze. 
  • This is the first pedal that allows the true tone of my guitars to shine through.
  • It’s SUPER quiet and being a session guy, the last thing I need is a noisy mess!
  • Very cool! It sounds like a freakin amp! I cut a few tracks on my protools rig and you really couldn’t tell that it was direct.
  • It’s built like a tank with a 10 year warranty (Wow), it sounds great, and the guys at SWELL are cool.
  • This has been the most significant and best overall change to my pedalboard EVER!
  • I think that overall I would have to give this little box a big fat 10.
  • I made some real estate available on my pedal board for some more SWELL stuff.
  • I would highly recommend this pedal!

G-Drive: User Comments

  • WOW!
  • The tone knob allowed me to get creamy tones as well as sparkling shine.
  • Tone City!
  • Very versatile.
  • It sounds like an old 60’s combo amp… a good one.
  • I didn’t think I needed another “drive” on my board. Boy, was I wrong.
  • Great job guys! Mucho Kudos!!!
  • More to come…

BEST IN SHOW!!!

Dave from Love Monkey Studios visted the SWELL Pedal booth at NAMM and fell in love with the G-TOD.

The following is taken from Dave’s NAMM Report Blog…

” SWELL Pedals: If I had a best in show, this would be it.

These guys are a new startup company based out of Nashville, and their overdrive pedal was by far the best overdrive I’ve ever used.

It’s called the G-TOD, and I just couldn’t get over how good it sounded.

I’m thinking about adding one of these for my clients(and me!) to use.

I also used their EQ pedal(VM-TEQ) which was equally great.

Really outstanding!

I hope they’re a huge success.”
