Description

Developed and Patented by Roberts RetroValves and built by Jet City, RetroValves are 100% analog vacuum tube replacement devices offering the warm, fat, punchy sound traditionally associated with only glass vacuum tubes. RetroValves are pin-for-pin compatible with 12AX7 tubes in nearly any guitar amplifier, offering instant modification of preamp gain characteristics.

 

There were a few other pedals, but these are the big 3:

 

AFTERBURNER Overdrive

Dual-stage overdrive.

​

The Afterburner is a two stage overdrive in a road-ready, aluminum and steel housing. The first stage is a straight-up overdrive for adding gain to the front-end of a tube amp. The second stage is a boost to increase volume for solos, etc.

 

Features:

 

  • Independent control of overdrive and “Afterburner” boost stage

  • True bypass operation – Will not “suck” the tone from your rig

  • Volume Control– Adjusts the overall output level

  • Tone Control – Adjusts the overall tone

  • Overdrive Control – Adjusts the amount of OD for the first stage

  • Boost Control – Adjusts the level of the second stage

  • On/Off Switch – Engages/Bypasses the pedal

  • Boost Switch -Engages/Bypasses the 2nd OD stage

  • On/Off and Boost LEDs -For high visibility on the darkest stage

  • Aluminum and Steel Housing -Strength and durability for the gigging pro

 
 
 
 

 

SHOCKWAVE Distortion

The Shockwave is a full-on, raucous-yet-refined distortion pedal, suited for use with nearly any amp. With tones ranging from lower-gain “British” crunch, to a riff-inspiring, full-blown saturation, this box is a must-have for the serious and versatile guitarist. Apply it to a clean amp setting and the Shockwave adds a “lead channel” to your single-channel amplifier, complete with a separate tone control.

​

Guitar World says Shockwave is one of the 5 best under $50.

  • Tone Control – Adjusts the overall tone

The FLOOD Delay

Simple. Green. 

​

We set out to create the most affordable and best sounding delay on the planet, and this was the result. Introducing The Flood Delay. It’s a straight-forward stomp-box with the controls you need, in a layout that’s easy to tweak on the fly. With 550 milliseconds of delay at your disposal, you can take the Flood anywhere from a simple slap back delay to a full-on swirling chaos of noise and everywhere in between. The circuit includes a PT2399 chip with 571N compander and TL072CN op amp.
