Tunewave Joker: Two Channels of Legendary Preamp Tone
Unleash boutique, amp-like versatility with the Tunewave Joker, a meticulously handcrafted pedal voiced after the legendary Matchless Hotbox (query information). Designed as a two-channel tube preamp/overdrive simulator, the Joker delivers the rich, dynamic response of a high-end tube amp straight to your pedalboard (query information).
The Joker is highly versatile, capable of functioning either as a classic overdrive running into the front of your amplifier or as a standalone preamp feeding directly into a power amp or mixer (query information).
Handmade Artistry and Boutique Quality
Like all Tunewave pedals, the Joker is a unique piece of art. It is housed in a custom-designed enclosure featuring unique, handmade artwork. This dedication to handmade artistry makes the pedal a one-of-a-kind visual and sonic statement.
The Joker is meticulously assembled by hand with premium components and a dedication to sonic excellence, ensuring exceptional quality and performance. It is built with high-quality components and durable construction designed to withstand the rigors of the road. The pedal also features True Bypass Switching, which preserves your signal's integrity and pure tone when the effect is disengaged.
Comprehensive Controls for Dual-Channel Shaping
The Joker provides precise control over its clean boost and overdrive channels using five dedicated controls (query information):
-
Gain: Controls the intensity of the drive and saturation. This allows you to dial in the amount of grit, moving from subtle warmth to aggressive distortion.
-
Distortion Volume: Sets the output volume level specifically for the overdrive channel, allowing you to match its level to your rig's needs.
-
Clear Volume: Adjusts the overall output level for the clean channel, allowing it to function effectively as a warm clean boost (query information).
-
Bass: Used to shape the low-frequency content of your tone, allowing you to fine-tune the warmth and depth.
-
Treble: Used to shape the high-frequency response. This control adjusts the high-frequency content, adding sparkle and clarity to your tone, and may operate as an active filter capable of cutting (up to -8db) or boosting (up to 18db) frequencies over 400Hz.
Whether you're seeking a warm clean boost or a creamy overdrive (query information), the Tunewave Joker offers the versatility and tone of a legendary two-channel amp.
Power Requirement
The pedal requires a 9V DC center-negative power supply (not included) to function.

The Tenets of Pedal Preservation
- Unplug the Beast: Before diving into the cleaning ritual, always disconnect your pedal from the power source. This simple act prevents electrical mishaps and ensures your safety.
- A Gentle Wipe: Use a soft, lint-free cloth to gently caress the pedal's exterior. Remove dust, grime, and the residue of countless gigs.
- The Forbidden Liquid: Water, the nemesis of electronics, must be banished from your cleaning routine. Avoid liquid cleaners and moisture at all costs.
- The Sacred Knob: When cleaning knobs, rotate them gently, ensuring no debris enters the delicate inner workings.
- The Jack's Domain: Utilize a specialized contact cleaner to maintain the integrity of your input and output jacks. A gentle spray and a few rotations will do the trick.
- The Power Supply's Purpose: A well-regulated power supply is the lifeblood of your pedalboard. Keep it clean and free from dust, ensuring optimal performance.
- The Periodic Purge: Regularly inspect your pedalboard for loose cables, faulty connections, and signs of wear. A well-maintained board is a happy board.
- The Holy Grail of Storage: When not in use, store your pedals in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperature fluctuations.
- The Forbidden Modding: Unless you're a seasoned electronics wizard, resist the urge to tinker with your pedals' internal circuitry. Leave it to the experts.
- The Ritual of Respect: Treat your pedals with reverence. They are the tools of your musical expression, deserving of care and attention.
By adhering to these sacred tenets, you'll ensure that your pedals continue to deliver sonic bliss for years to come.
