BOSS + JHS JB-2 Angry Driver Overdrive Pedal - Dual Overdrive | No Limit Guitar Co, Idaho Falls
The BOSS + JHS JB-2 Angry Driver is a landmark collaboration pedal, built to mark the 40th anniversary of BOSS compact pedals by combining the voices of the iconic BOSS BD-2 Blues Driver and JHS Pedals' popular Angry Charlie in one housing. Independent controls for each overdrive type give players an enormous tonal range, from expressive low-to-mid gain warmth to an aggressive rock voice, in any combination. This pedal is built for guitarists of any level who want serious drive versatility from a single, road-ready overdrive.
Product Overview
Housed in BOSS's classic compact pedal enclosure, the JB-2 pairs an all-new combined analog circuit with three dual-concentric knobs, giving players independent drive, tone, and level control over each overdrive voice. A six-position mode selector lets players run either overdrive independently, stack them in series, or blend them in parallel for entirely new tonal combinations, while a built-in pedal switch also lets players toggle directly between the BOSS and JHS voices on the fly. A multi-color LED indicator makes it easy to see which mode is active at a glance, showing blue for BOSS mode, red for JHS mode, and purple when both are engaged together. A remote switch jack rounds out the control options, letting players manage modes and bypass from an optional footswitch or effects switching system.
