The JangleBox JB-OB onboard compression circuit will make your prized
300-series Rickenbacker sound glorious, with incredible tone options. It's
based on the JangleBox JBX, our high-end performance pedal. The JB-OB chime
and sustain will give your guitar a sound unlike any off-the-shelf Rick.
The installation is only seven steps, and can be performed with regular
guitar tools, but it requires patience and attention to detail. Basically, you're
connecting your guitar's pickup cables to the JB-OB terminal block. Please first
review all the steps carefully. If you have a reasonable ability to connect wiring,
it won't be difficult. But if the task isn't in your wheelhouse, a good repair tech
at your local music store can handle it for you.
