    Marshall Jackhammer JH-1

    Marshall JH-1 The JackhammerPublished on 11/08/02 at 15:00
    Budapest, Hungary. I paid 22000Ft (new)- $90 approx.

    I used the Marshall valvestate's overdrive before. I wanted to achieve more like Metallica sound, so i decided to buy a distorsion pedal. I've searched internet forums what could be useful to me. (I guess a Mesa/Boogie amp :) It has an overdrive and a distorsion mode as well. I use only OD, the distorsion is too smooth for me. I got very close to that Black album sound, and that's waht is all about.

    There's a little noise when it's turned on. O.k., every distorsion pedal has a noise while in use. Is it a fault or not?
    I dont like that the sign on the knobs cant be seen, because the knobs reflect any lights. The sign is just a thin bl…

    I dont like that the sign on the knobs cant be seen, because the knobs reflect any lights. The sign is just a thin black line. So when I tune it, I must have a close look.

    It has made of metal, very solid. Don't need to worry about breaking.

    Versatile sounds, two modes. The best single OD/Dist pedal I've ever met.

    $55 new from a marshall dealer in istanbul, Turkey. I had tried it out and liked the variety it offered in heavy distortions, and it was a pretty good price.

    It has alot more variety than alot of other heavy distortion pedals i looked at, including the DOD grunge, the Boss Metal Zone. the controls are: OD/dist switch, gain, level, hi EQ, lo EQ, contour, and frequency. i really like the contour and frequency knobs, i use them to differ my sound and tweak the EQ to even it all out. i use it after a marshall bluesbreaker which rocks also, but didn't have the driving sound i needed for several songs my band does. as far as the sounds are concerned, this covers alot of terrain. the frequ…

Distortion mode is very pounding, even with hi EQ all the way up. this thing does great for rhythm guitar and power riffs on lower strings.

    not enough gain! i mean, palm muting is pretty close to what i had wanted, and normal strumming and picking of power chords/riffs are great. however, it doesn't do too well on its own for lead. i use it with my bluesbreaker for extra gain-juicier muting and much more sustain for solos. i havent used it with a compressor, though i have no doubt that this would also fix this problem. it really does offer some great sounds and tones, it could just use a bit more gain for added sustain.

    pure metal casing. the little logo popped out...but both this and the bluesbreaker are really built to last. i've been using it with a DC 12V adaptor for 6 months and nothing's happened to it (it requires a AC 9V). no problem here...even dropped it from about 8 feet onto a hard marble floor...accidentally of course. i jump and pound on it. the switch is kinda thin and uncomfortable when barefoot, but sturdy enough

    good stuff. i highly recommend it if you have another distortion pedal to add a bit more juice to the signal. don't try to use it alone, it's kinda frustrating. this works for me, especially for the price...good stuff this

    I got this pedal online with musicianfriend.com it cost me $95.00.I was looking for a good distortion effect pedals With alot of gain and easy to use. That gives me quality tone with my guitars thought a clean amp or slightly overdriven amp.Why i acquired this pedal was because the jackhammer has two mode overdrive and distortion. The overdrive gives me traditional marshall sound like a JCM 800 style amp.The Distortion delivers more high gain like a JCM 2000 model.Also the jackhammer features a stunning contour control.This allows you to scoop certain frequencies from your tone.and If your in to moving the wall in your house this is the pedal for you.

    This pedal is easy to use it's like playing with alot of amps at the same time. The range of tones are great through a clean amp at full volume.The settings are easy for me to experiment as much as i want.It is also built like a brick house.

    This pedal features 2 modes to capture both the JCM800 crunch,and the extreme JCM2000 Lead sound .Besides the mode switch, the pedal has controls for gain, volume,mid-contour,bass,and treble. All wrap up in a rugged metal case and features passive bypass. For those who like a good thing in a small box.

    Marshall amps have been with use since 1962 .This pedal gives use guality that marshall can give.The jackhammer has very thing that a guitar player wants alot of balls and classic marshall tone at a good price.This pedal is for all guitarists on very level of playing.

    How/Where: New Pedal auctioned on E-bay.
    Tired of limitations of Boss HM-2. Needed a more versatile distortion that still had a ton of crunch like the Boss. $75 + shipping




    The JH-1 has a wide range of sounds from a fairly mellow overdrive to a mid-scooped all out metal growl. Great EQ system with separate knobs for treble, bass, and mids.



    It really lowers the signal / cuts the volume when turned off even though it is supposed to have true bypass switching.



    Small pedal. Very sturdy construction of brushed metal. Easy access to battery compartment (unlike Boss).




    The best all around distortion pedal that I have ever used. I love this thing.

    UTILIZATION

    The manual is very explicit and even offers settings such qques quite effective. Controls are 4 in number 3 of which are "dual function".
    Only the Switching Overdrive / Disto is basic. The others are not always practical double knobs in the sense that one turn without moving the other is more difficult than turning a Dunlopillo without waking his neighbor. Sometimes you put the two hands, which is not very practical situations. However, the settings are fine and progressive.

    SOUND QUALITY

    Personally I totally fell for this virtual emulation JCM2000. By playing with a lespaul APH1B equipped with Seymour, he pushed me a top hat on the skull and a fag in mouth. This is stunning (yet to order my fingers).
    The grain is very close to the lamp, bold and hairline. Corrections severe / acute are also progressive and also refines the sound with a button outline (as on the brand and amps with the same effects on the "envelope").
    Gains and volume are dissociated, which for me makes me putting myself in Drive, with a relatively low gain and high volume boost a strat clean sound to attack the "Fonk Family".
    Caution, however, by doing that, we win the breath ... Do not care, I have Lace Sensor.

    OVERALL OPINION

    6 months of use not regular. Often I play on PC power and multi headphone. It is the pedalboard of honor, however.
    Models I've tried tons and still has quintals, but it is more hairy (not the most extreme, the hairier, the allusion to Slash see above).
    Price / quality ratio interresting, compatible with std Boss PSU, battery cover and fairly accessible throughout greedy little elsewhere.
    This one, I do not sell it!

    The selector is very practical but the change of its other ncessite a refining rglages!

    With a little practice it no longer seeks to change which button to turn this or that aspect of her!
    And the race is totally potentiomtre rglages operates and are fine.

    SOUND QUALITY

    I love! can do anything (staying in the color british brand sr good!).
    Crunch lightweight, big sound full of serious rock and roll accorcheur or immitation noise of circular saw .... it's magic!

    TEPM take to try APRS but several years of use I arrived further refine your exact!

    OVERALL OPINION

    Excellent overdrive pedals ... do not buy it if you want a distortion, overdrive rest of anyway! but if you want to have a possibility to change the time as well as keeping a certain signature! This is good!

    In addition to the look is gorgeous and bbte is super strong!

    OVERALL OPINION

    I love the JH-1. I possde for 1 year or so. Before I had a variety of pedals, but this heat does not in sound, not even with the Boss OD2 I possde too.
    Please note I speak of overdrive pedals, not a box type metal MZ example, so to use rock or pop or blues, it's perfect

    UTILIZATION

    Bah-level configuration should read the instructions a bit especially with regard to the freq knob contour and contour element because it is not complex but the worst of the pedal (although not hard c) .. The edition sounds simple enough to spend a little time tweaking and you can easily find the sound you look up and the manual is pretty clear it clearly explains all the features of potentiometers ...

    SOUND QUALITY

    Level of sound quality I'm satisfied with TRS I use it for 6 months and every time I rebidouille my knob, I find new sounds. This pedal really has a wide range of sounds, poouvant to the heavy distortion or a distortion punk or blues .. on the other hand I prefer the overdrive a distortion on this pedal, I find that the distortion generates a breath quite annoying but set out the breath disappears. But the overdrive good power and is very friendly .. In short it was really all the sounds in a regroup existing marshall pedal .. Dirty sound, the small sound of a solo by the way, but its super clean and so on ....

    OVERALL OPINION

    I use this pedal for 6 months I bought around 80, I tried, and especially in marshall digitech home before buying this pedal, I first test the guv ' nor 2, the Bluesbreaker but I was not happy with the sound and the size of the palette, then I test a little digitech all he owned pedals (death metal, distortion, punk etc. ... ..) and deu a transistor's too much sizzle too. And! Tomb of the jackhammer and g not hesitate and I buy, I used to play ska / rock, metal (Rage Against The Machine, Lofofora ...). if I had to buy one I'm not sure I repeat this one I would hesitate between an os-2 home boss ..

    Well, do not Chipotte the quality is good. Fidler Sound is the brand. The distortion provides a sound too "soft," I got too round, and loses much in attack which is a shame. The overdrive allows a much better rceptivit and offers a less muffled sound. However you can rgler with frquence, and contour.
    The grain is also enjoyable, just play with the knobs to get the "colors" DSIR.

    OVERALL OPINION

    Basically I DSIR pedals to make a heavy-mtal, this is not too PDAL This category (I refer you to the MtalMaster Digitech). However I use it with pleasure for the songs rock, blues and old hards time I play more.

    Its great advantage RSID in the two small buttons: Frequency / contour.
    Too bad we can not push more gain.

    Easy to use, from a little time to set the medium range, we arrive quickly at a good sound.

    Well this pedal it's been 3 years that I have and I always come back. I use a mesa boogie F30, the channel clear for a preset distortion of less typical mesa. It has nothing to be ashamed of the channel distortion of the mesa yet very good.

    In the long run it will be a permanent part of my set;

    I strongly advice to all that big rock.

    2 modes:
    OVERDRIVE: very good to excellent, not far from my old TS9 (there, I'm going to scream more than one ...) I've owned in the 80's, see a better definition in the bass, ideal for the vintage rock and blues, was connected to the clean channel of a good tube amp, if your thing is Lynyrd Skynyrd and Led Zep faire.chaud it going well before!
    DISTO:
    good, I admit I like least, a lot of sustain, it screams dry but I am less client, I guess for the metal or hardcore punk that should do the trick for me but since punk c ' is to stop Heartbreakers Johnny Thunder and I prefer to resume Jumpin 'Jack Flash than any thing of Korn, the channel distortion will remain "new condition" and I will continue to play with the OD.

    OVERALL OPINION

    I buy okaz few months ago to expand the sound palette of my JTM. I must say that I is not definitive but each time with pleasure, in fact, the JTM is sufficient to itself this .... I would do this without hesitation despite this choice in this price (40 euros during / 80 new).
    The JH1 deserves to be known, it is aimed mainly at those seeking a sound blues / rock and 70's who can (or want ..) not to 200/300 euros in a vintage TS9. short, great deal ...

    jen'm happy

    SOUND QUALITY

    Let's be serious: it's a great pedal to sound dirty. The range available is impressive (that's what determined my choice) because you can go from light crunch to distortion greasy. There is also a function contour seems to me he acts as a kind of filter on the sound and allows you to scan the edge of very heavy.
    It is essentially a fact that I use with a guitar, but I have to plug a synth also.

    OVERALL OPINION

    I had to get it around 2003, like I said I was attracted by its vast sonic palette. In the shop where I bought it, I remember having with her sister compared the Blues Breaker. But it seemed more limited (good sound in the crunch, overdrive, but less aggressive than Jack Hammer as it was to increase the gain). This is my first and my only distortion pedal (I was using before the saturation of my Peavey).
    I am totally satisfied. I think there is a debate on its ability to spit sounds good nag. Must try is the only way to realize. I think she can get away in all areas including making sounds of a pneumatic drill. And besides, she's beautiful!
