Introdución
The JHS Pedals The Kilt V2 is a versatile overdrive and fuzz guitar effects pedal, designed in collaboration with guitarist Stu G. This pedal offers a wide range of tonal possibilities, from subtle, amp-like breakup to aggressive, gated fuzz. This manual will guide you through the setup, operation, and maintenance of your Kilt V2 pedal.
Configuración
Before connecting your JHS Pedals The Kilt V2, ensure your amplifier and other effects pedals are powered off. The Kilt V2 requires a standard 9V DC power supply (not included) with a center-negative barrel connector. Connect the power supply to the 9V input jack on the pedal.
Conecta a túa guitarra ao ENTRADA jack on the right side of the pedal using a standard 1/4-inch instrument cable. Connect the SAÍDA toma no lado esquerdo do pedal para o teu amplificador ou o seguinte pedal da túa cadea de sinal usando outro cable de instrumento de 1/4 de polgada.
The Kilt V2 also features a G2 REMOTE jack, allowing external control of the G2 toggle switch with an optional remote foot switch for convenient on-the-fly adjustments.
Controis operativos
The Kilt V2 features several controls to shape your tone:
- Botón VOLUME: Controla o nivel de saída xeral do pedal.
- Mando de ton: Adjusts the high-end frequencies, allowing you to brighten or darken your sound.
- Mando GAIN: Controls the amount of overdrive/fuzz. Turning it clockwise increases the distortion.
- CUT/FLAT Toggle Switch: This switch allows you to either cut low-end frequencies (CUT position) for a tighter sound that sits better in a mix, or maintain a full-range frequency response (FLAT position).
- G1 Toggle Switch: Impulsa unha ganancia adicionaltage. When flipped up, it adds a touch of drive for more riffy grit.
- G2 Toggle Switch: Engages a higher gain stage. When flipped up, it pushes the pedal into distortion territory with increased saturation and sustain, ideal for lead tones.

Configuración de tons
The Kilt V2 offers a wide spectrum of drive and fuzz tones:
- Light Gain: With both G1 and G2 toggles in the down position, you achieve a light, amp-like chimey breakup.
- Medium Drive: Flipping the G1 toggle up adds a touch of drive, suitable for more riff-oriented playing.
- High Gain Distortion: Flipping the G2 toggle up pushes the pedal into distortion territory, providing increased saturation and sustain for powerful lead tones.
- Gated Fuzz/Distortion: When both G1 and G2 toggles are flipped up, the Kilt V2 delivers an almost uncontrollable gated fuzz/distortion, designed to cut through any mix.
Experimenta co TONO botón e o CUT/FLAT switch to fine-tune the high-end response and low-end presence to match your guitar, amplifier, and musical style.
