Keeley Noble Screamer, Overdrive and Boost (KNoble)

I had a JHS Bonsai and found out that the Keeley mod sounds the best to me. So I sold that and bought this instead. It comes with a buffered bypass which I love.

This pedal will take your tone from so-so to amazing. I like using the noble side with the screamer tone for a whole different lead tones. For Crunch/rhythm I put the screamer drive with the nobles tone. Can you say thick and punchy. Of course, with two different circuits in one pedal you’re gonna have volume drops when you switch from the Nobles to the screamer side. That’s not bad though.

Nothing this pedal does remotely justifies the price. Better off with a stock tubescreamer.

From edge of break up to gritty dirty it does it all.

Since I can't respond to another review, I'm adding this review to correct/inform the review about 'no battery' and being unable to find a '9v 23ma' connector... finding only a '200ma' and being unsure if its compatible.Not having a battery is a choice. Some of my pedals have battery compartments, some don't. I don't use batteries in any of them. I used a power supply that has 9v (and an 18v) outputs. These are STANDARD sized power leads that fit almost every modern guitar pedal on the planet. What this reviewer needs is a pedal power supply and power cable (which often come bundled with a supply, but can be purchased separately). Plenty of fine choices for single or multiple lead power supplies to be found. One such single-pedal option is this: https://www.amazon.com/Blucoil-Power-Supply-Adapter-670mA/dp/B06XHNP9SB/ref=sr_1_1?crid=2U28TNV8R3GAL&keywords=blue+coil+pedal&qid=1696019044&sprefix=blucoil+pedal%2Caps%2C83&sr=8-1Now, concerning 23ma -- this is just the rated power draw of the pedal. So ANY standard guitar pedal power supply and cable/connector just needs to handle at least 23 milliamps of current (they ALL can). When seeing something indicating 200ma, that just means it can handle about 9 times the current needed. You won't actually push 200 milliamps of current into something just because it's rated to handle it. The device will draw the current it needs and in this case, it only needs 23 milliamps so using something rated for 200ma is 100% fine and normal. 'nothing to see, here'.I hope this helps someone, particularly the reviewer. If a pedal doesn't have a battery compartment you just use an external power source. Decide if you want a single power adapter for a single pedal or if you want a supply with multiple outputs to handle multiple pedals, now or in the future.

Really good TS sounds, better than most I would say. The Nobles side I don't understand. Mine had some issues. The build quality just holding it in my hand wasn't great, but the biggest thing that happened is the LED turned off but the pedal was still on. Very embarrassing during a show, and I had to stomp on it about 8-10 for it to turn back off. Returned as reliable gear is paramount for a pro.

I play pedal steel in a band that covers classic country and rock. I’m looking for something that can give me a bit of tube amp breakup and also — when I want — more of a fuzz tone feel. I have a DigiTech multi fx unit with a TS808 that works better with my single coil through a Quilter so I will stick with that.This unit would probably work fine with a different setup -, just not for me.

Can't give a review on how it sounds because it has no battery port and I could not find an adapter for 9v 23ma, and they don't even have one listed on the Keeley store page. There are some showing from a search, but they were 200ma, so no idea id that's safe or notIf you can't make a $200 guitar pedal without including a way to power it, maybe you shouldn't be in the guitar pedal business.
