Well, everything has been said about the technical features of this pedal so I will not stay again, just to emphasize the very good build quality and extent of the possibilities of adjustment.

UTILIZATION

Like any pedal, it takes a little searching to find his sound (héhé..) But it's still pretty simple. Just an observation, the dual controls on the buttons are useful but not very practical, and finally got used to it ... .

SOUND QUALITY

It's still good reason why you buy a pedal, then there Alons:
2 modes:
OVERDRIVE: very good to excellent, not far from my old TS9 (there, I'm going to scream more than one ...) I've owned in the 80's, see a better definition in the bass, ideal for the vintage rock and blues, was connected to the clean channel of a good tube amp, if your thing is Lynyrd Skynyrd and Led Zep faire.chaud it going well before!
DISTO:
good, I admit I like least, a lot of sustain, it screams dry but I am less client, I guess for the metal or hardcore punk that should do the trick for me but since punk c ' is to stop Heartbreakers Johnny Thunder and I prefer to resume Jumpin 'Jack Flash than any thing of Korn, the channel distortion will remain "new condition" and I will continue to play with the OD.

OVERALL OPINION

I buy okaz few months ago to expand the sound palette of my JTM. I must say that I is not definitive but each time with pleasure, in fact, the JTM is sufficient to itself this .... I would do this without hesitation despite this choice in this price (40 euros during / 80 new).
The JH1 deserves to be known, it is aimed mainly at those seeking a sound blues / rock and 70's who can (or want ..) not to 200/300 euros in a vintage TS9. short, great deal ...
