Project overview
Inspired by the classic and timeless Lovepedal JTM, an authentic representation of the JTM45 tone “vintage amp” flavor, excellent for stacking with fuzzes and overdrives.
Introduction
The Love.45 is a one-knob wonder as simple to use as it gets, an Amp-in-a-box incredibly dynamic and responsive to your unique playing style. It delivers those classics, touch-sensitive, British tones only reachable by a circuit with the perfect balance of touch, tone, feel, reliability, and grace.
Having the sounds of the venerable Marshall JTM45 is a big deal. We are talking about one of the most iconic mid-60′s British era type tones here. Eric Clapton chose this amp because he could fit in the boot of his car, creating the combo that became remembered as the “Bluesbreaker” that later was responsible for the era-defining tones of the “Beano” album. With the Love.45, you can fit it in the palm of your hand, turn it on, turn it up and rock out!

Really recreate the jtm45 sound. Touch sensitive and clean nicely with guitar volume. it’s a always on pedal for me but can be used as a boost as well.
i personally set the knob to 9/10 for a great overdrive.
