JHS Pedals corrects its DIY NOTADÜMBLË fumble with an improved Dual Channel V2 edition with A Box Later Boost, Presence Knob, Order Switch, and FX Loop onboard
Key Points
JHS Pedals corrected the DIY NOTADÜMBLË fumble with a Dual Channel V2: the Clean/Boost now uses the "A Box Later" (not the BBC-1), adds a Presence knob, an Order switch, and a TRS FX Loop for the Clean/Boost channel. Launch video noted.
Controls — OVERDRIVE: Volume, Drive, EQ, Presence, Red footswitch; CLEAN/BOOST: Output, Input, Green footswitch. Ports — 1/4" TRS FX Loop (needs TRS Y-splitter), 1/4" TS In, 1/4" TS Out, 9V DC [-] 25mA.
Available from the JHS Webstore at $119; paid $34.32 shipping to UK; order confirmed four minutes past the hour. As of 2026-07-17, the price was £119.
I think everyone knows the story by now - how Josh somehow mistakenly included the wrong Clean/Boost Channel in the original NOTADÜMBLË pedal - the BBC-1, rather than the ’A Box Later’. While that’s been rectified now - along with a number of additions which appeared on Cosmodio Instruments DLX Mod, and Blammo’s TNYDÜMBLË.
JHS have done a brilliant exercise in upgrading the original - which now also includes a TRS FX Loop for the Clean / Boost side - so you can insert all manner of other pedals or pedal-chains even within that gain stage.
Controls - OVERDRIVE } Volume, Drive, EQ, Presence, Red Footswitch; CLEAN/BOOST } Output, Input, Green Footswitch. Order switch on front edge.
Ports - 1/4" TRS FX Loop (Needs TRS Y-Splitter cable), 1/4" TS In, 9V DC [-] 25mA, 1/4" TS Out.
I really enjoyed assembling the original version, and am looking forward to assembling its replacement too. I believe I was in the queue fairly early on - my order was confirmed at 4 minutes past the hour!
This one’s even better value - as you’re getting all those extras for the same great price of just $119 - available direct from the JHS Pedals Webstore. I paid $34.32 also for shipping to the UK - and will report on the inevitable customs and import fees for when the pedal lands.
I have a feeling Blammo will be doing a version of this one too - and I will probably get that also - in that smaller compact format!
These ’NotA’ releases are great fun, and pretty great sounding too. At this price it’s surely well worth a punt!
