Description
The Electro-Harmonix EHX Tortion JFET Overdrive/Preamplifier Pedal is a pedal designed with analog JFET technology to reproduce the overdrive and distortion character of a tube amplifier. Three-band AEQ and a Pre-Gain switch hone your sound, and a footswitch Boost mode adds a second channel of modern high-gain tones. Normal and Boost mode each has its own Volume and Gain knob.
This pedal features eight knobs. The Normal Gain knob controls the amount of input gain when the pedal is in Normal mode. The Pre-Gain knob controls the level and tone of the initial input signal to the pedal and has four settings: Full and Tight for low input level, and Full and Tight for a higher gain. The Bass knob controls the level of the bass frequency range. The Mid knob controls the level of the mid-frequency range. The Treble knob controls the level of the treble frequency range. The Normal Vol knob controls the output level of the pedal when in Normal mode. The Boost Gain knob controls the amount of input gain when the pedal is in Boost mode. The Boost Vol knob controls the output level of the pedal when in Boost mode.
Key Features:
- JFET overdrive for tube-like response and tone
- Boost switch with independent Volume and Gain for two-channel flexibility
- 4-way Pre-Gain selector, plus Treble, Middle and Bass for complete sound control
