Colourbox v.2 is all thats left! £375 £125 Scotland

[krispn]

Only the Colourbox v.2 remains

 

JHS Colourbox v.2 £375. Given a brand new circuit with all up to date mods which address some noise issues. Neve style preamp with gain stages and hi/lo gain options. It’s actually a really useful studio tool too. This is a preamp/di/drive which sounds excellent on just about any source. HPF filter is set at 160hz but the semi para eq means you can experiment with the “Pultec trick” of boosting the lows or low mids right where the filter kicks in. Only I have an all tube preamp I’d keep this. Had it paired with an all tube di and it was a killer combination! This is basically brand new! 

Price includes U.K. shipping.

You know that feeling when you list pedals then take a bunch of them on your next gig and love what each one does for different songs/tones.

I love my colourbox - it’s amazing even off the transformer just does lovely things to your tone, and then gets even better when you turn it on. 
it also can be over driven if that’s your thing 

[krispn]

It’s a killer box and I maybe mentioned already a great studio tool - home studio or pro. The way the transformer can colour a kick drum or snare or drive some overheads. I know so much can be done in the box but getting that source signal right is a nice skill to have. 
 

Im gonna pop the colour box back on my board tomorrow (gigging tonight) and hear how it’s sounds after some small board changes the other week.  I already have some transformers (two in line plus one on my di out!) so I’m already getting that mojo.

Is the output transformer only on that XLR , or on the 1/4” jack too?

Two transformers - so you’re getting one always in the signal path and a second on the di. Version one always had the transformer in the circuit, v2 added another to the di out👍🏼

There’s one in the signal path via Jack even when it’s off - so it wouldn’t surprise me if that’s the output one

if I had to sell all my pedals - my one of these would be the last to go.

 

I would be out of tune but I would sound great!

For me it’s the Simone preamp. If I didn’t have Simone this would be staying put.
