Joyo JF-16 British Sound Effects Pedal with Classic Brit-Rock Era Amp Simulator and Unique Voice Control
Looking for that Classic British sound of a VOX, Laney or Hiwatt for your next recording project? Easy! Grab yourself the JF-16 and you’ll have all that classic rock “over the pond” sound nailed. Perfect for either a rhythm (top-boost) or lead channel simulator (if you have a nice, loud solid state guitar amp), the JF-16 circuit allows you to replicate the sound of these incredible amps, practically all of them! The British Sound delivers that 60s and 70s warmth and harmonic overdrive you hear on so many classic records.
The features on this overdrive pedal make it more than a tube-amp simulator. It’s a tone-sculpting tool that Michelangelo himself could be proud of (if they had electrics guitars back then; he probably would have invented pedals). Using this Joyo for rhythm work, you can cover the Stones or Zeppelin no problem, and then just add a bit more gain to nail those guys’ drive channel. The distortion benefits tremendously from the Mid control (many players love the Mid-Boost feature of the Vox amps, and you can’t get that out of your stompbox with only a single Tone control). The British Sound has the full 3-band EQ, “Voice” control and the standard Output and Gain control knobs… Alter one or two variables and you quickly create a new sound!
The JF-16 has the Brit Grit soul with the in your face (Fuzz – circa Clapton or Hendrix) raucousness of those true pioneers of rock. If you know funk and rock guitar of the 60s, early 70s and beyond, then you know and can appreciate this sound. Don’t compLaney anymore, get the British Sound from Joyo Audio, then reach back into the past (or your old record collection) for inspiration. Cheerio!

A Great Gritty Dirt Box For Cheap! I’ve played on my friends quite a few times. The Ultimate Drive is a fantastic dirt box at a very reasonable price. If you are looking for a powerful classic hard rock or old school hardcore punk sound on a budget this is the pedal for you. It comes in a solid metal enclosure that feel sturdy enough for the rigors of gigging. The switches and knobs feel great. My only gripes with this pedal are the plastic battery cover and the fact that tone knob has a limited usable range. In my opinion…
Good Sound – Worth the Money This review is for Joyo JF-39 Deluxe Crunch. It is a clone of the MI Audio Crunch Box. Rumors that this is a Plimsoul clone are wrong. I didn’t know what to expect from this unit, but was pleasantly surprised. Huge amounts of gain available (80dB!), tons of sustain. If you want something hard & nasty, this pedal does all that. If you want something smooth and mellow, look elsewhere. This unit is a hard limiter like the DS-1, Distortion +, Rat, etc. When you dial up the distortion the…
Ear Candy! This has quickly become my favorite pedal. The overdrive tones it produces are so rich, articulate and pleasing to the ear. Ever have an OD pedal that you thought you liked, but then turned it off and felt relieved that you did? Well, you won’t get that with this pedal. I’ve not had the opportunity to try out a Fulltone OCD, but if it’s anything like this Joyo JF-02, then I totally get all the positive reviews and hype. The Ultimate Overdrive has so many wonderful tones – from a slightly over…
