Super sick!!!

After months of extremely detailed and thurough research on a versatile yet superbly great Marshall tone for my studio, I decided to go with the @. A little skeptical at first since to be honest, I hoped that this pedal had more gain since my main use for it is in the studio and as a very experienced producer for many decades in the industry, I need something that will provide more… read more flexibility and a wider range on possibilities. When I connected this pedal and I stetted playing with it, WOW!!! another category on it self! the tone is superb! and extremely easy to use, It feels like an amp in a box! I give this pedal not 5 stats, but 6!

Perfectly dialed in and sweet tone.

This pedal exceeded my expectations which were already on the higher side. I have been playing professionally for about 26 years and have played pretty much every pedal and amp out there up to now. I am picky about gain pedals and have sensitive ears that hear everything. I always loved Andy's tone and wanted something similar. This pedal does that tone perfectly. I have a ton… read more of nice overdrive and distortion pedals by Friedman, King Tone, Keeley, Rock Box, Suhr, Vemuram, Xotic, Jetter, the list goes on and on. This pedal is perfectly dialed in and can get you the tone you want fast due to the intelligent eq design. Lead tones are fat, juicy and responsive with great smoothness but the midrange voicing allows it to cut through in a sweet way that is easy on the ears. The boost is great and adds gain when you want it. Settings for the Timmons tone are: gain all the way up, volume at 11 o'clock, air at 11 o'clock, eq at 11 o'clock boost at noon and in the 100 watt middle toggle setting. Fat and smooth tone is this pedals best thing. Sustain is great too and the pedal is silent with no noise. They really did a great job with this pedal, it is honestly in the top 3 high gain pedals I have ever played which is crazy, but true. The only thing I wish it did better is clean up more naturally, but it was designed for Andy Timmons who uses a treble bleed in his Ibanez so I am guessing that is why it cleans up darker. This pedal sounds awesome in stereo with a Strymon timeline. Currently using it into two clean tube Amps (Friedman) with 2 212 Friedman cabs with V30 speakers.

JHS AT Drive Pedal, Best Pedal I Have Owned.

Over the past 35 years, I have owned more than 100 distortion/overdrive pedals, ranging in price from $45.00 to $450.00. No joke, the JHS AT Drive is the best sounding and most powerful I have ever owned. I use the pedal through a Fender 65 Twin Reverb Reissue, with 2 replacement 1250 Eminence Speakers. The sound I get with a 2011 Am. Strat (Super Distortion Hum-bucker) is full,… read more powerful and either smooth or biting depending on where I have the Wattage toogle. With very little effort, I was able to nail the exact tone on Andy Timmons True Fire Lesson (The Melodic Muse). Amazing pedal at a discounted price and limited ed. black and red coloring.
