SKU: JB-2

Product Description

The JB-2 is Boss' first collaboration pedal! They’ve teamed up with awesome the JHS Pedals to combine two of their best stompboxes into one sublime little unit. The JB-2 Angry Driver blends both the JHS Angry Charlie and Boss ' own BD-2 Blues Driver.

Everyone from pro guitarists to bedroom jammers are familiar with the biting tone of the Blues Driver, but you might be less in the know about the Angry Charlie. This searingly hot circuit captures the essence of a high-gain Marshall amp in a box. With both styles at your disposal, you have every flavour of classic, saturated tone to sculpt your unique sound.

Multiple Modes

The classic Boss chassis houses both circuits which can be accessed individually or stacked in two different ways. Run the BD-2 into the Angry Charlie or vise versa. You can access both circuits by using a remote Boss footswitch. Simply turn the knob on the far right of the pedal to the relevant setting.

This pedal is exceptional. I've used a Blues Driver for years as it's the best low gain rhythm sound I've found, but always wanted a higher gain option. The Angry Charlie side compliments this perfectly, both as a high gain rhythm sound or stacked with the Blues Driver. I'd definitely recommend an external footswitch, it gives you so many more options. I can't see this leaving my pedal board any time soon.

Hmmmmm. This takes some calibration to work with a Fender Blues Junior. I wanted to run the amp clean and get all the gain staging from the pedal, but it sounds flabby with overly distorted low freqs. Before returning it, I tried running the amp as I would use it without a pedal ie with master on full so the amp is distorting, and then using this pedal to push it a bit further and shape the tone - and it works very well for this . It is a bit of an expensive way to do this when cheaper pedals can do a great job.

The flexibility of the pedal is amazing. Excellent range of sounds, easy to dial up the right sound.

Great sound, only negative, can not be turned on and off as two individual pedals, needs to be done by selecting on the dial on the unit, this may be a problem if playing at live gig in the dark, I use it for playing at home so suitable for my application.
