J Rockett The Jeff Archer features true NOS Russian germanium diodes and has now become a feature on a legendary guitarist’s pedalboard replacing the Klon as heard all over the album “Loud Hailer” and on stage. Accompanying the NOS diodes, several key components found in the original Archer have been replaced with vintage NOS variants.

The results are what Rockett believes to be the best sounding iteration of that mythical circuit to date. These pedals are hand-signed, serialized, and dated by Jay Rockett. The pedal is a versatile overdrive/boost with amazing headroom that is designed to help you cut through the mix. Please experiment with settings and be careful with the output….this dude is loud!

The volume control is very powerful and drives fairly hard relatively early. This allows you to hit the front end of an amp or pedal to get very aggressive or crystal clear. The Treble control is a very effective EQ that goes from dark to a very “chimey”, bright tone. It’s great to create that midrange clarity.

The gain also acts as a mixer control between the clean boost and the gain. Turn the gain all the way down and your output becomes the volume for all clean boost. Start blending in the gain control and it will simultaneously reduce clean volume & introduce gain…..somewhere in the middle is the sweet spot or mix of the two….experiment!!
