Product Description

Here's what Mr. Black say about the JDS-50

While the JDS-50’s un-assuming looks may insinuate you’ve got a standard overdrive pedal before you, it really isn’t quite like anything else out there.

From its perfectly balanced frequency spread, to the ridiculous dynamic response held inside, I think you’ll find this little silver box as not only totally indispensable, but much more of its own instrument than a pedal.

A special limited run of truly spectacular overdrive pedals available Spring 2017.

Jack Deville original design.

That sound you’ve been searching for. Your sound. Your signature.
While the JDS-50’s un-assuming looks may insinuate you’ve got a standard overdrive pedal before you, it really isn’t quite like anything else out there.
From its perfect frequency spread to the ridiculous dynamic response held inside, I think you’ll find this little silver box as not only totally indispensable, but much more of its own instrument than a pedal.
Like all Mr. Black pedals, this finely crafted instrument was entirely handmade in the industrial South-Easy side of Portland, Oregon U.S.A.
The Basics:

  • The JDS-50 isn’t hard to work with.
  • Connect your guitar to the input jack (cleverly marked “IN”) and your amp to the output jack (aptly labeled “OUT”).
  • Start with all the knobs set to noon and kick it on.
  • Grab a strong chord and adjust the controls to find exactly where you like em. It’s totally okay if you find five or six different tones you really like right away.
  • Features:
  • Clear, full, articulate and natural overdrive that seamlessly integrates with nearly every pedal and amp setup out there.
  • Three extra-simple controls.
  • 100% True-bypass
  • 9VDC power (2.1mm negative center pin adapter) or internal 9V battery
