An updated version of the popular Little Green Wonder, the Mad Professor The Green Wonder is a high-output overdrive/boost pedal optimized to sound great with single coil and humbucking pickups and different amplifiers no matter if clean, overdriven, or distorted.
It delivers the uncompressed and touch-sensitive tones of the predecessors adding extra Bass and Treble controls requested by many players who loved the original.
The Bass knob’s range goes from a slight low-frequency cut to a significant low-end boost, while the Treble one can make your tone warm and smooth or bright and cutting.

CONTROLS:
VOLUME: Sets the overall output level of the pedal. Even when used as a clean boost, The Green Wonder provides enough level to push the front end of the tube amp into natural clipping.
DRIVE: Sets the level of overdrive. Set counterclockwise for low overdrive or a boost and set clockwise for more overdriven tones. This will take you from clean boost to bluesy crunch, and also to rock overdrive. Tight and heavy distortion can be obtained when The Green Wonder is used with other overdrives.
BASS: Sets the low end of the pedal. Adjustment range is from a slight low-frequency cut into a significant low-frequency boost. Good starting point is at 1 o´clock.
TREBLE: Sets the brightness. This takes you from warm and smooth into bright and cutting tones. Good starting point is at noon.
