Ryan, a session and commercial player, reviews the Junior Rangers Glaciers pedal by Spruce Effects, which is a more affordable version of the Americana series. The Glaciers pedal functions as a preamp and is praised for its cool sound. Ryan demonstrates its use on multiple guitar tracks, bass, and Rhodes, showcasing its versatility. The pedal features controls for volume, gain, depth, and EQ, allowing for a range of sound adjustments. Ryan highlights the depth control, which enhances low-end content without simply adding bass, and the EQ's ability to shape sound effectively. He appreciates the pedal's ability to produce a clean distortion that sounds clean in a mix but has a subtle edge when isolated. Ryan prefers this version over the original Americana series for its less aggressive gain and better performance in nuanced sound areas. Priced at $119, he finds it a great value for its capabilities.
