OVERDRIVE- JETTER Pedal X... a new concept in pedal design


 JETTER PEDAL X OD 
$150.00 USD

This has been a very creative company with many new ideas and when trying to put a specific sound in a box are anal about detail.
The Pedal X consists of 5 cascading gain stages using positive feedback to cause distortion. There aren't any transistors or diodes. What does that mean. I have no idea LOL. Actually I do but it is something that is usually part of also using transistors and diodes.

CONCLUSION
All very pure and clever but does it sound good?
It sounds like a clean booster pedal with a mids 
boost evenly across all the mids from low to high.
It is not like a mid spike on one spot in the spectrum 
that can give you a punchy honk or even a cut for 
scooping.
It certainly hasn't an endearing character like a 
Tube Screamer or old Boss OD. 
It is like a car with 3 wheels all very clever but if that 
is it's only special feature then why should I buy one?
To get to the point. It sucks!!!! 
Jetter make several good pedals but not this one.
