Published on 08/21/14 at 05:10This is a pedal of a équivallente size to other models in JMB (riff shooter, nitrogen 21).
Two switch:
- A first for the OD
- A second for the "money for nothing" effect: a sort of 'phase' of his ... read more it is best to visit the manufacturer's website.
(Note that these are 'super-switches', without knocking, without poc in short Unlike a switch EHX)
An entry + an output jack and an input power supply standard type boss.
In short an analog pedal as we like, simple and effective.
UTILIZATION
The are super-simple settings, turn, listen and it works. That's probably why there is no manual.
There are actually two pedals in one: an OD and MFN effect. You can activate one without the other.
The knobs are of excellent quality (such as the pedal itself).
SOUND QUALITY
First: MFN effect. To find it, you need a guitar with double, a clear channel amp, and .... about 5 minutes! For fans, this and the perfect tools to play this legendary song.
Second: the rest. That's why I ordered the pedal actually. First, because to just over € 200 in a pedal and then play a song, I find it a little ... weird ... commment say.
In short, the possibilities are immense: we just play with the MFN effect without distortion, adding a phaser, with a boost before or distortion by adjusting the phase. A unique sound is obtained. The distortion is good is accurate, the settings are effective and intuitive.
I have not tried yet combined with a fuzz (a nitrogen 21, for example), nor tried with a low but I will soon do so.
Note that there is no 'plop' in use, no breath, no sizzle to manipulation. It's clean and clear.
I tried on a Engl Screamer combo, with a Les Paul (for once, this is what it takes for sound MFN), a std strat (you can get some nice riffs with a little bit of OD) and Cort mounted DiMarzio (breed and evo) for a more modern sound and take to Steve Vai (optionally adding a phaser and delay).
edict of 8.24: the MFN effect (without OD) works quite well with a fuzz (behind).
And a bass that goes well with the frequency setting down. The distortion is a little too powerful for a bass, but it's usable, and quite interesting! ... Still full of possibiltés to discover.
OVERALL OPINION
I've had a few days. I bought it after having a Nitrogen 21 (the magic fuzz JMB) and have completed development on the site of the manufacturer. For now I'm far from having been around but I love the variety of sounds.
I'm not worried about reliability: I have a 21 Nitrogen for some time and it works like a clock. the quality is excellent.
In short: buy CFD, you will not be disappointed. In addition, it is handmade in France (for real), the manufacturer is available, knowledgeable and friendly. What more?
(And yes, it looks like I will leave a notice a little too good to be honest but I have no other connection with JMB than being a fan of their products)
