JHS Colour Box V2 Preamp Pedal

Our Take:

Conceived in 2012, the Colour Box was intended to be a tone-sculpting tool unlike anything that had previously been seen on a pedalboard, and it was a massive success. JHS' Colour Box V2 is the same innovative preamp pedal with tons of new additions to take your tone to the next level, offering precise EQ control, Gain shaping that delivers high-quality overdrive, distortion, or fuzz depending on your preference, and a Hi/Lo Switch for unbelievable amounts of clean headroom. The JHS Colour Box V2 is an incredible investment if you're looking to have polished tone from the minute you plug in. 

JHS' Take:

The Colour Box V2 has all the same functionality of the V1 with many new and improved additions like expanded EQ controls, a Hi/Lo switch for massive clean headroom, and the ability to pass phantom power to your condenser mics. 

The most significant improvements are:

• Addition of an Output transformer

• Safely Passes 48v Phantom Power

• EQ Shift Knobs for precision EQ control

• Hi/Lo Switch for ultra clean headroom

• 100% available clean signal even on acoustic guitar

• Silent switching, aka no "switch-pop"

• Runs on standard 9V DC Neg power
