Called œDobros matchless contemporary master, by The New York Times and lauded as œmy favorite musician by rock legend John Fogerty, Jerry Douglas could have been a musical innovator on any number of instruments. However, as a teenager, Douglas adopted the then relatively obscure and unexplored Dobro guitar. That decision has helped him carve out a unique place in American music where he has wielded incalculable influence on bluegrass and its many related genres.

The œJD Signature pedal comes pre-loaded with 16 custom Aura images created by Jerry Douglas, specifically for resophonic guitars. Easy to set up and use, the Jerry Douglas Signature Aura Imaging Pedal removes the need to mic your instrument on stage, eliminating spurious stage noise and intrusive microphone setups. With the Jerry Douglas Signature Aura Imaging Pedal, you get the true, unique voice of your resophonic instrument, on stage or in the studio.

The Jerry Douglas Signature Aura Pedal features 16 custom Fishman Aura Images created and used by Jerry Douglas specifically for resophonic guitars. The effect pedal features 24 bit A/D/A; 32 bit internal processing, volume, blend, and image select controls, a feedback-fighting phase switch, bypass/mute foot switch, and input trim with clip/low battery indicator. Runs on 9V battery or Fishman 910R or suitable power adapter (not included).

Larry Fishman developed this Signature Series Aura Pedal with a world-class team of professionals, including musician Jerry Douglas, recording studio engineer Bil VornDick, and renowned resonator builder Paul Beard, to bring you the most realistic amplified tone available. Night after night, or any time you record, this Fishman Aura pedal lets you reproduce the tone that can only be created by such trade masters.

    After Buying a Gretsch G9220 I went ahead and got the JD Aura pedal. I feel it's a bit over price, or should have more tone adjustments, feedback tools, etc.. I didn't realize it has 2 modes for the foot switch. One mode mutes everything, the other mode toggles between pickup only and aura only. The mute mode is very useful. There is a slight volume drop toggling between the pickup/aura, but I don't need to toggle, I'm keeping the aura pedal on all the time. I Plugged it into a PA it sounded really good. I also tried it into my Morgan DAG15 and a Roland KC300. I have not played it through a Loudbox amp yet. The Morgan had some lower mids cut, but sounded pretty good. Maybe not exactly a real reso tone, but useful. KC300 didn't sound good at all. One concern, there is a considerable mid bump on all of the images. and I was fighting feedback at loud volumes. It performed as advertised. Makes my inexpensive reso sound like a pro level guitar. Over all it's a pretty cool pedal. I hope it holds up.

  • Great item, must buy!

    If I plug directly into a PA system from the JD Aura pedal, do I need a impedance transformer for 1/4" phone plug to XLR adapter, or a 1/4" to XLR adapter only? 
Thanks!

    No. Your board should should take a line level just fine.
