West Co Pedals Releases “Grease Juicer”
Two new pedals now shipping—one voiced specifically for bass and another for electric guitar, both featuring a unique analog signal path
West Co Pedals has announced the release of their first signature pedal, the Curt “Kirkee B” Bisquera “Grease Juicer” – an envelope filter pedal with attitude. The Grease Juicer features a unique analog signal path with knobs making it easy to control its complex chain of fuzz into an envelope filter with a sidechain. Two versions are available—one pedal is voiced specifically for bass and another tuned specifically for electric guitar. If players want a little extra grease and grit this pedal delivers, but it can also function solely as an envelope filter for a clean sound. The envelope filter was designed to accommodate a massive dynamic range—everything from very quiet playing on a guitar with low output single coil pickups, all the way to thumpin’ n’ pluckin’ on a bass with active pickups. The Grease Juicer also sounds incredible on synths, electric piano, and clavinet. To get the kind of sounds and control that the Grease Juicer offers, it would normally take 2 or 3 separate pedals. The Grease Juicer is available through Clif Jones’ LA Vintage Gear store in Burbank, CA, or through the West Co website directly at www.westcopedals.com for $329.99 USD.
