Modern Features, Classic Sound

Whatever music you play, the Clover has an important role to play on your pedalboard. Boost overdrive pedals, send a tube amp into full-on crunch, deliver pure punchiness from your single coil pickups or define fat sounding humbuckers with absolute clarity.

Guitar pedals have come a long way since the '80s and the Clover's several nifty features reflect that. It still houses the same incredible circuitry known for it's superb accentuation and boosting abilities, but you can now select the frequencies you control even more precisely.

Controls

The Clover operates a standard three-knob EQ, but you have the choice to use all three for tonal flexibility, cut mids control to exactly replicate the FA-1, or dismiss all control so the pedal puts its own stamp on proceedings. 

A Low Cut dip switch on the side of the pedal allows you to remove of the lows if you find your sound is too muddy or need to slice through a mix.    

The addition of a ground lift switch removes hum when using the Clover's XLR output. Yet another example of JHS Pedals' thoughtful contributions towards pedal design.

Versatility

Bass and acoustic players can use the Clover too! Its XLR output means you can hook it up to a soundboard or interface. It was designed with bassists and acoustic guitars in mind. Are you after more definition or dynamics from your instrument? The Clover has every base covered.

Guitar FX

Guitar FX (effects) refer to the wide range of pedals and processors that shape and manipulate a guitar’s signal to create different sounds. From classic distortion and overdrive to reverb, delay, modulation, and pitch-shifting, effects are at the heart of a guitarist’s creative toolkit. Whether analogue or digital, stompbox or multi-effects unit, Guitar FX allow players to express mood, texture, and dynamics in unique ways. Used thoughtfully, they can transform a simple riff into something atmospheric, aggressive, or entirely otherworldly.

pedal

A pedal is a compact device that guitarists use to alter their instrument’s sound by shaping effects such as distortion, delay, reverb, and modulation. Typically housed in a rugged enclosure and controlled by footswitches, pedals are designed to be placed on the floor for hands-free operation during playing. They can be analogue or digital, true bypass or buffered, and come in countless varieties to suit different styles and preferences. Pedals are essential tools for creating signature tones and adding colour and texture to a guitarist’s sound.

Preamp

A preamp (preamplifier) is the first stage in your guitar signal chain that takes the weak signal from your guitar and boosts it to a usable level for shaping tone and driving the power amp.

It’s where much of your tone is formed—controlling gain, EQ, and character. In valve (tube) amps, the preamp stage is what gives you that classic warmth and breakup when pushed. In modern rigs, standalone preamp pedals or rack units can mimic classic amp tones or create entirely new ones. Whether in a studio or live setup, a good preamp is the heart of your sound.
