Gold Standard Overdrive Pedal

Best pedal I've ever bought. If I could only choose one pedal to keep...this one would be it. Amazing tone and feel.

Excellent!!!

I've owned the Jetter Gold Standard for several months. I like to have two different overdrives on my board. I was looking for a 2-in-1 pedal to simplify my board layout. I've owned a Fulltone Fulldrive II, Wampler Hot Drive, Lovepedal Eternity Overdrive, Fulltone OCD, Keeley Fuzz Head, Fulltone GT-500, Zvex Box of Rock, Zvex Fuzz Factory, Hermida Zen Drive, Rat II, Boss SD-1, Xotic BB Overdrive, and a few other various and sundry dirt boxes. All great pedals, but the Jetter Gold Standard is the perfect one for me. The right "Gold" side is great for smooth, creamy, warm, ballsy singing tone with lots of sustain along with beautiful harmonics and overtones. The left "Helium" side is a bit less aggressive, more of a classic TS808 sound. Both sides have tons of gain on tap, and the volume, tone and gain knobs on each side are interactive and afford you with a nearly endless amount of control in shaping your sound. Extremely easy to dial in whatever you are looking for. The 2 channels can work independently of each other or stacked together, so you're really getting three separate od's in one box. It's almost impossible to find a bad sound here! Not cheap at $250, but when you figure that you're essentially getting three separate pedals in one box, it's a great deal of bang for your buck.

I had a list of about 5 overdrive pedals that I was really interested in ranging from a JHS Morning Glory to a Fulltone OCD to even a Zvex Box of Rock. I had never heard of Jetter effects before, but the professional at the store I was at insisted that I try it. After going the rounds with all of the pedals, the Gold Standard was the winner. I really dug it's transparency and tonal options. Everything just seemed to sound good. From really subtle clean boost to almost fuzzy thick overdrive, this pedal has more then warranted its price tag. The fact that it was essentially two $200 boutique overdrives for $250 helped justify it's cost too.
