Why is there no sound or red LED after I connect the pedal?

Confirm Guitar → INPUT → OUTPUT → Amplifier, fully insert both 1/4" plugs, and place a plug in INPUT. Use a fresh 6F22 battery or DC 9V center-negative adapter. Power and battery are not included. If it still fails, message us through the order page.

What do the six controls do, and where should I start?

LOW, MID, and HIGH shape EQ; LEVEL sets output; DRIVE adjusts gain; VOICE changes the overall amp-style character. Start near 12 o’clock with moderate DRIVE, match LEVEL to the bypassed volume, then adjust for your guitar, pickups, amp, and speaker.

Can JF-13 replace an amplifier or power a speaker by itself?

No. JF-13 is an amp-simulation and tone-shaping pedal, not a powered amplifier. Use it with an amplifier or suitable interface, mixer, or DI setup. Direct results depend on input gain, monitoring, speakers, and the rest of the signal chain.

Where should JF-13 go in my pedal chain?

A practical starting point is after compressors and drive pedals, with delay and reverb placed after it. Chain order is personal and setup-dependent. If the tone changes unexpectedly, test JF-13 alone, then add the other pedals back one at a time.

Why can noise or feedback increase with some settings or pedal combinations?

Higher DRIVE or LEVEL settings and stacked gain can raise hiss or feedback. Begin with moderate settings, use a regulated 9V supply and working cables, test one guitar and one amp, then add pedals one at a time. Message us through the order page.
