JDM Pedals Fuzz 292

The key to our Custom Silicon Fuzz Pedal “Fuzz 292″ is a 3-way voicing switch; treble-boosted fuzz, a standard moderate gain voicing, and high gain fuzz-fever freakout. So at the flick of a switch, the Fuzz 292 changes it’s overall character and how it reacts to your picking and guitar volume knob adjustments.

In addition to the (naturally necessary) volume control and 3-way voicing switch, we’ve added a tone and gain control.

– The “bias” control shapes the character of the fuzz, bending the sound from a smooth, overdrive-like fuzz into a gated, “ripping velcro” fuzz tone (a la some of Homme’s best solo tones in QOTSA.)

– The “Gain” control acts just like the volume pot on your guitar – for a fuzz, this means it smooths the tone, providing a more overdrive-like quality. Or crank it for a blast of 60’s/70’s retro fuzz fry!

ProCo Vintage RAT

Pre-2003 model in 2019

Vintage RAT 1991-2005
As the vintage instruments market surged, demand grew for a reissue of the “large box” RAT pedal. The Vintage RAT can easily be identified from an original in two ways. First, the Pro Co logo does not contain the “Sound Inc.” text written down its right side. The reissue also features an easy access battery compartment on the pedal’s bottom.

For 25 years, discerning guitarists have used the Rat’s “magic” sound, its perfect blend of distortion, sustain and cutting power, usually found only at a volume too loud for club and studio work. Painstakingly researched and designed to produce a sound that is radically different from any “fuzztone” your have ever heard — a sound that sings and wails the blues, or spits and screeches the hardest rock’n roll. A sound that is as subtle as a vintage “twin”, or as bone crushing as a wall of those famous English stacks. The Rat’s smooth harmonic distortion and effortless sustain put the extra punch in rhythm work and makes solos cut through with authority and power.

Tune in just the right amount of overdrive, get the presence you need without any tinny treble, and balance the volume for the perfect extra “kick” for lead breaks. Distortion, sustain, fuzz, overdrive: the sound remains unmistakably yours. Not fake or gimmicky. Also the rat will not change the tone or power of your guitar when it is turned off; its true bypass switch disconnects it completely from the circuit when it is not in use, eliminating the loading effects common among other devices.

The Vintage Rat is a reissue of the original production models built circa 1977. It offers fat smooth distortion with effortless sustain. It gives a Marshall feel to Fender amps and humbucker muscle to single coil pickups. There is a wonderful natural compression to the Rat. As you search for your sound, you owe it to yourself to check out the Vintage Rat at great music stores everywhere.

Marshall JVMC212 Extension Cabinet

The ultimate portable JVM extension cabinet, previously known as the TSLC212, the JVMC212 150w cabinet will give you more creative control over the appearance of your rig. It maintains that classic Marshall tone with one G12 Heritage and one G12 Vintage Celestion speaker. Where the Heritage offers a punchy, brighter sound, the Vintage has a more rounded midrange. Wherever you go – this cabinet is powerful but lightweight with full-size carry handles for easy transport, making it a great investment if you play at a variety of venues.

The JVMC212 cab is constructed from the finest Baltic birch plywood in the Marshall UK factory and hand covered in traditional and hard wearing elephant grained vinyl covering. This is a 2×12″ extension cabinet that feels larger than life in the way only Marshall knows how to do. The Marshall JVMC212 speaker cabinet is suitable for most amp heads.

Tonal excellence – the two different speakers, heritage and vintage, give a deep tone to your sound as well as delivering that unparalleled Marshall volume. Speakers aren’t just there to move air, they’re an integral part of an amplifier’s tonal voice. After exhaustive testing of every speaker available, all agreed that the pairing of a Marshall/Celestion ‘Heritage’ with a Marshall/Celestion ‘Vintage’ was the only way to go as the combination produces a fantastic depth and breadth of sound while maintaining a tight, musical response and a solid low-end thump.

TECHNICAL SPECIFICATION: Model JVMC212
Speaker configuration 2×12″. Power handling 150w.
Speaker model 1 x Celestion Heritage G12H (8Ω, 80w) , 1 x Celestion Vintage 30 (8Ω, 70w)
Unit impedance 16Ω Mono. Weight 24 kg / 53 lbs.
Width 690 mm / 27.2″. Height 490 mm / 19.3″. Depth 265 mm / 10.4″.

Electro-Voice TL806

The Electro-Voice TL806 low frequency loudspeaker system is a vented-box (bass-reflex) design with gross internal volume of 1.3 cu. ft. (36.8119005696 Liters) The system has been designed for use with the Electro-Voice EVM12L 12 inch loudspeaker. The usable frequency range of the TL806 is roughly 60 to 1600 Hz. The efficiency of the TL806 is 6% (half-space load, 100 to 800 Hz, 8 ohm nominal impedance) and as a result will generate outputs of 6 acoustic watts at the rated input of 100 watts.

The design provides a selection of two different low frequency response curves by the optional use of a removable port cover. In the normal configuration (port cover off) the response is flat down to the lowest possible frequency. In the step-down configuration (port cover on) the response exhibits a sloping gradual low frequency rolloff but with about a one-half octave extension of low end response. The step down mode of operation is intended to be used with simple before-the-power-amp equalization to flatten the response (only 6 dB maximum boost required, equalizer details available on request).
