For our first foray in to DSP we put our white lab coats on, we listened to a lot of reverb, and then we listened some more. We tore apart reverb tanks to see what makes them unique and created something truly special.

The Spring Theory is designed specifically for guitar. You won’t hear a supposed spring reverb simulation that just doesn’t cut it, or some so-called “studio” reverb designed for vocals or drums ported to a pedal format as an afterthought.

Sounds like the real deal!

The Spring Theory sounds and feels like a real tube driven black face reverb. It reacts dynamically to the attack of every note you play. You can hear the springs chirp and resonate. Vintage wet surfy reverb sounds that are only found in amplifiers and stand alone spring reverb units… Until NOW!!!

Oh, and we haven’t even mentioned that other setting. Not only did we create a great authentic spring reverb pedal, but we also created a very special room reverb. The room setting simulates anything from a small space to a 10 mile wide cavern with ceramic tile on every surface.

The reverb knob sets the effect volume. The depth knob controls the reverb length. Set the depth knob near the middle for realistic lush sounds. Turn it to the right for unrealistic everlasting reverbs. The room setting is especially awesome for this for creating synth like pad sounds and thick, rich sonic landscapes.

The Spring Theory can be powered by AC adapter only. There is no battery option for this pedal.

When we released the Superbolt in 2012, we never dreamed that it would become one of the most recognized and distinguished pedals in our history. Turns out there are guitarists all over the world that are loving the sixties-era Supro amp-in-a-box tones that this pedal churns out. In designing the Superbolt, we paid very close attention to the feel and sound that made the original amps the go-to combos for players like Jimmy Page, Brian Setzer, and Switchfoot’s Drew Shirley. And with the SuperBolt Version 2, we’ve upped the ante by giving you access to our versatile Gain boost circuit via the front-mounted toggle or our own JHS Red Remote footswitch (sold separately).

VINTAGE AMP TONES WITH A TAP OF YOUR TOE

If you want to know what our SuperBolt V2 is capable of, just listen to the opening chord stabs of Led Zeppelin’s debut album. A more iconic rock tone there isn’t. And though the cranked sixties Supro amp tones Jimmy Page deployed will go down as legend, those sounds are only the beginning of what the SuperBolt V2 is capable of.

• Tones based on the clear and gritty tones of sixties Supro tube amps

• Drive knob acts in a similar fashion to the volume controls on the old amplifiers

• Tube rectifier-like sag increases as the Drive control is turned up

• Tone control is usable throughout the whole range

MORE VERSATILE THAN MEETS THE EYE

Yes, when you step on the SuperBolt V2, your tone will be transformed into the glorious tones of classic rock’s heyday. But there’s much more under the hood than Jimmy’s Tele-driven rock. Back off on the Drive and Tone controls, and you’ll immediately find yourself digging into your best smokey Chicago blues licks. Or keep that drive low but crank the Volume, and you’re able to boost any amp into harmonically rich submission.

• Tone control takes you from warm and mellow to cutting and aggressive, without ever losing its musicality

• Internally converts 9V to 18V for a huge amount of headroom and punchy output

• Gain knob sweeps between darn-near-clean and amp in full-meltdown mode

TWO FOOTSWITCHABLE GAIN LEVELS

By pairing your SuperBolt V2 with the JHS Red Remote (sold separately), you’re able to access the front toggle’s gritty higher-gain settings on the fly. It’s like having two SuperBolts in one pedalboard-friendly package.

• Switch to a more powerful sound with enhanced low end and grit

• Plug in your JHS Red Remote to switch between the two voices with a tap of your toe

• Handy LED changes from blue to red, indicating the status of the boost circuit

VERSION HISTORY

Use Space as an Instrument

Some reverbs and delays are there just to be felt. Lofi Space is meant to be heard.

Lofi Space is the perfect effect for those attention-grabbing ear candy moments. With bright saturated delay and two flavors of analog-based spring and plate reverb, Lofi Space lets you add splashes of vintage ‘verb color and bold analog echo to your tracks. Instantly, without tweaking, you can create deep, gorgeous lofi-tinged effects, suited for any production in need of that vintage touch.

Above all else, Lofi Space brings you character. It’s the effect you’ll be reaching for when you want to stop being polite with your sound – when you want a lofi-inspired signature ‘wow’ sound that delivers a bold statement in your production.

In addition to Spring and Plate reverb tones to choose from, delay sync to BPM, host or milliseconds, adjustable echo feedback and more, Lofi Space also gives you a ‘slimmer’ control, letting you narrow the stereo field of your samples or live instruments to faithfully mimic the sound of old mono records.

Whether used as an insert or on an independent FX channel, Lofi Space is a surefire way to spice up your game and start using reverb and delay for what they are – inspiring instruments in their own right.
