New Jam fuzz release

Post by JVG » Fri Mar 29, 2024 4:07 am

I’ve been very disciplined in recent times - have hardly bought any pedals.

But this new release has grabbed my attention.

I like Jam pedals, I like silicon fuzz, and i’m curious about the bc107 transistors in these. The graphics are pretty cool too.

I don’t need it.

Will see how long i can resist.

Jam makes really nice stuff. If I hadn’t already stumbled onto my dream silicon FF this would be in the running for sure.

I’ve got nothing to add, the “New Jam” part of the title just reminds me of “Big Jam” a low cost line of pedals made by Multivox for the US market in the late ‘70s - early ‘80s. They were easy to find in pawnshops when you were hunting interesting pedals (non-Boss or Ibanez) for your ‘90s noises.

The distortion, octave and analog delay could all provide quirky, non-standard tones. The chorus, phasers and flangers were all okay, but pretty run of the mill. Cheap if you needed one though!
