Product Description
The Roland JB-2 Angry Driver Overdrive Pedal is a collaboration between BOSS and JHS Pedals, merging the smooth bluesy tone of the BD-2 with the high-gain crunch of the Angry Charlie. Designed for maximum tonal flexibility, it offers six different operating modes to blend or stack both circuits.
With dual drive circuits and independent level, tone, and drive controls, the JB-2 allows players to dial in everything from subtle breakup to roaring distortion. The switchable series, parallel, and independent modes give musicians unprecedented control over their overdrive textures.
For guitarists looking for a powerful, flexible drive pedal, the JB-2 Angry Driver delivers legendary BOSS reliability and boutique-quality tone shaping.
- 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.
