The Canadian company聽Revv is above all known for its聽Generator tube heads.聽In 2018, the company released its first pedal, the G3.聽It went on to introduce the G4聽at NAMM this year, a high-gain pedal aimed at metal and hard rock players. The G2 is a different, perhaps tamer, animal and captures a particular Revv amp sound in a stompbox.

Revv G2

The sound of the聽G2聽is based on the Green Channel of聽the Revv amplifiers.聽It’s all about dynamics聽and a “creamy” crunch.聽When used in conjunction with the volume control your guitar, it should get you a wide range of sounds. I suppose it would behave more as though it’s part of your amp, like having another channel available. This pedal might be most attractive for those running a rig with a one-channel amp, or those needing another聽tonal option.

Amp in a box?

The G3 has three different drive modes, going all the way from聽boost聽to “amp in a box”. Listening to the demos, it sounds transparent聽in the low gain settings but you can also get some high-gain聽lead sounds, too. Revv has included a 3-band EQ with聽bass, mids聽and聽highs.聽The audio examples in the linked videos sound delicious!

Value for money?

The聽Revv G2聽costs USD聽229.聽Compared to the new Robert Keeley ‘modded’聽Maxon OD808-40K 40th聽Anniversary pedal this聽is a bargain! It聽also聽appears to be more flexible, with its 3-band EQ and various gain聽settings, potentially making a lot more聽versatile.

If you are looking for a neat, medium gain overdrive pedal with amp-like tones then the new Revv G2 is definitely worth checking out. Watch the videos below to hear it in action.

RRP – USD 229
