jhs volume pedal JHS Clover Preamp / EQ Pedal – House of Musical TraditionsIn early 1984 BOSS released two strange new devices under the name The Pocket Series. One of those devices was the FA 1 FET Preamp and it quickly found its rightful place among the legends of tone when The Edge of U2 used it on the recording of Unforgettable Fire as well as placing it in his following touring rigs.

In early 1984 BOSS released two strange new devices under the name “The Pocket Series”. One of those devices was the FA-1 FET Preamp and it quickly found its rightful place among the legends of tone when The Edge of U2 used it on the recording of “Unforgettable Fire” as well as placing it in his following touring rigs. The Clover Preamp/Boost is our faithful interpretation of the FA-1 but with several additional features that we believe make this amazing circuit even better. You won’t want to be without your lucky tone-shaper at any gig!

CONTROLS

The Clover has four standard controls and one rotary switch on the top. The Volume control allows you to set your volume at unity or as a boost to push your amp or dirt pedals. There are three EQ controls to give you tons of control to cut or boost Bass, Mids, and Treble. The rotary switch has three settings: Full EQ, No Mid, and No EQ. When set to Full EQ all three EQ controls are in operation, giving you full control over the full range of EQ available. The No Mid setting is an exact replica of the original FA-1, removing the ability to control the Mids and leaving them in a fixed setting. When in the No EQ mode all the EQ settings are removed and the Clover becomes a straight FET boost, perfect for pushing an amp. On the right side of the pedal there is a Low Cut dip switch. This removes some of the lows if you feel your tone is too muddy and can help you cut through a mix.

XLR OUTPUT CAPABILITIES

In addition to the standard 1/4” input and output, the Clover has an XLR output for using as an acoustic or bass preamp. These can be used individually or simultaneously if you want to go to a sound board or interface as well as an amplifier. The XLR output was designed with acoustic and bass players in mind as the Clover is a wonderful preamp that gives you a great amount of control over your sound. There is also a ground lift if you experience some hum when using the XLR output.

END ALL BE ALL

The Clover is an end all preamplifier / boost circuit for any electric, acoustic, or bass player. The EQ is simple, powerful and doesn’t allow a bad sound. No matter what style of music you play or amp that you use, the Clover will prove to be an indispensable tool.  While the Clover excels at being a preamp / boost for dirt pedals, the magic is in pushing your tube amplifier into natural overdrive. The EQ lets you hit the exact spot that your amp is naturally prone to give in at. Push your small wattage amp into natural rich overdrive and distortion or find sounds in your larger more powerful wattage amp that you have never heard before. Strat and Tele players can use the Clover to create extra punch, depth and dynamics that single coil pickups can’t normally achieve, while Les Paul and humbucker players can find clarity, bite and definition galore! From country, rock, metal and even acoustic… The Clover covers every base. Find your unforgettable tone with the luck of the Clover!

Good value and for newbies
Size: 54mm Fits Breville Barista/Bambino/Infuser
Keep in mind I am new to the home espresso machine world, but prioritize my coffee quality. For context I am using this kit with a Breville Bambino Plus machine with an after market Teyearlife 54mm bottomless portafilter. The build quality of all of the items in the is very good. Solid feel and machined cleanly free of imperfections or rough spots. Fits both the Breville stock amd aftermarket portafilter perfectly. Really can beat the price on this kit compared to others. I would recommend washing all of the items in warm water with just tiny bit of fragrance free dish soap and disassembling the tamp and leveler to wash off the machine oil that was applied in the factory since you do not know if that is food safe or not. Mine smelled more like WD40. Just use a thin layer of butcher block or food grade mineral oil when dry and before you reassemble those items. I would have given 5 stars but three things held me back from doing so. First, the needles on the WDT tool have sharp tips and really do not need to be, so I may be cutting the tips off. Second the magnets on the portafilter funnel should be bigger, or stronger, or there should be more of them, it needs to have just a little more grab in my opinion. Third and lastly, I was hoping for some instructions or guidance on what depth to set the tamp and leveler to. So for now just kinda playing it by feel. I have pulled 2 double shots using this kit and I get good crema and consistent 45ml of espresso with 19g of fresh ground coffee. So maybe I got lucky with my first initial setting but would like to get some reference to start from. Other than that, I would say this is a good kit for those venturing into the world of espresso who do not want to spend a lot on accessories, but also want quality tools that you can grow with over time. Happy brewing!

ya get what ya pay for.
Size: 58mm Fits Breville Dual Boiler/Oracle/Gaggia/E61
WDT tool came with bent needles and they are spaced too closely together and are too long to maintain position and bend way too easily and its receiver is a bit short and not weighty enough to be stable with its aspect ratio. Tamper purports to be a calibrated force tamper while it is a simpler spring-loaded depth-setting tamper ground distribution tool has a gap that gathers grounds if it is not perfectly closed. portafilter screen is pretty dang good the dose funnel chamfer is not at the same height as the rim of the portafilter, making me overfill for estimate fits my Casabrews Ultimate setup pretty well. blower bulb is woefully undersized to produce enough force to eject extraneous grounds
