Pédale d'Effet du Jour: Boss JB-2 Angry Driver

To celebrate the 40th anniversary of BOSS compact pedals, BOSS and JHS Pedals have come together in a historic creative collaboration between the two industry leaders. Housed in the classic BOSS compact design, the JB-2 Angry Driver pairs the tones of the iconic BOSS BD-2 Blues Driver with JHS Pedals’ popular Angry Charlie. Working closely together, the two pedal innovators have developed an all-new combined circuit with refined sound and performance perfectly tuned for dual-mode drive operation.

The JB-2 Angry Driver features three dual-concentric knobs that provide independent drive, tone, and level control for each overdrive type. Via a six-position mode selector, you can use each overdrive independently, or combine them together in series and parallel configurations. With the ability to blend the Blues Driver’s famously expressive low-to-mid gain tones with the Angry Charlie’s aggressive rock voice in any combination, the JB-2 Angry Driver delivers unmatched range and versatility from a single overdrive pedal.

Features include:

• All-new overdrive pedal with massive tonal range, jointly developed by BOSS and JHS Pedals
• Combines the voices of the BD-2 Blues Driver from BOSS and Angry Charlie from JHS Pedals
• Three dual-concentric knobs provide independent drive, tone, and level control for each overdrive type
• Mode selector for choosing individual overdrive types, two series connections for stacking, or parallel connection for unique new sounds
• Also includes a mode for toggling between BOSS and JHS overdrives with the built-in pedal switch
• Remote switch jack for controlling pedal modes and bypass from an optional footswitch or effects switching system
• Multi-color LED indicator shows BOSS mode (blue), JHS mode (red), and both together (purple)
