Looks like it's been a while since there has been a Jetter thread. I had a Jetter Jetdrive a number of years ago that I thought was great. I don't remember why I moved it on, I think I was just bored and got a deal a Lovepedal Amp11 (which I didn't end up liking nearly as much). Been drive shopping again lately because with the jump from a Maz 18 to a 38 I need a some more gain at my toes. I starting looking up to see what Jetter was up to and glad to see great pedals still being made, but with some big changes to the business model. He's essentially selling direct now. Super affordable, high quality stuff. I'm probably going to do one of his dual drives for some flexibility and its only like $10 more than a single.
I see Jetter peppered here and there around here. Anyone got something they love?
Five Watt World did a thing about a year ago:

I'm drawing a blank at the moment, but one of our members is a strong Jetter believer and supporter. I've slowed down with my pedal buying but Jetter was on my wish list when I was still "searching". I saw this video when it came out and that made me even more tempted to try "just one more pedal".

I see that Jetter designs his pedals to be primarily used at live gig volumes, as does Mike Zaite. At least that is my perception of the Z amps I have owned. Thus a reason that some may not "get" the mojo of those pedals.

That's not a current production so I'm just curious what folks like now that I'm shopping and looking at the current options. With him going direct the Jetter pedals are in a weird spot. Folks are asking for prices on their used gear in line with what they used to cost through a dealer. Now you can buy direct and spend the same or just a touch more for something brand new. Kinda of a no brainer to order something direct from Brad.

I have a Monster. It comes on and off my board based on what my drive needs are. It's kinda neat because it's 2 pedals that stack so it can make a lot of tone. It's a little more buzzsaw sounding but it has its uses.

Do you mean it gets into a zippery fuzz tone when both are cranked?

Do you mean it gets into a zippery fuzz tone when both are cranked? when you crank it up, either stacked or not it heads alot more into fuzz territory than high gain drive. If you want to play with it I can mail it down to you.

Your review just confirms my inclination. I think it was the blue side of the Jetdrive that was the Dumble sound. Surprised that the Monster isn’t smoother like that was.

I use the Red Squared, which is a helium on one side for clean boost; kind of an always on, and then the red for the next beefier layer on top. Has an external switch to modify the signal from red to a phase shift sound. I like it better than the red side. Going into Maz 18NR Mk II. cheers.

I have the Grissom. To me, it's very much a Marshall IAB, which isn't surprising since David G has said many times that his holy grail tone is Duane at the Fillmore. I like the pedal, but I'll need to gig it to see if I'm going to keep it. No doubt about the build quality....top notch.
