HIDE&SEEK is a very convenient item with two pedal functions.
There are two models, Bright Horse and TSH-10, inside.
The left side is equipped with a KLON motif bright hose, and the right side is equipped with a Japanese TS10 motif.

The pedals are designed to connect two in series, but you can switch between the front and rear pedals with the switch on the front.
Each of the two pedals has a buffer on/off.

With this function, you can have a wide variety of sound variations even with two pedals.
For example, set the buffer to Bright Hprse and use only TSH10.You can choose to place the buffer in front or behind the TSH10 by simply flipping the front/rear switch.This has very surprising effects.

HIDE&SEEK -Dual Overdrive

Introducing the Bright Horse, a versatile guitar effect pedal based on the Klon circuit that offers a wide range of tonal options. This pedal is made in Japan by the talented builder Toru at HTJ-Works, who is known for his dedication to quality and attention to detail.

The Bright Horse pedal features a unique diode switch that allows you to toggle between a Germanium diode with sound characteristics close to 1N34A. This switch allows you to adjust the distortion and harmonics of your tone, giving you a wide range of tonal options to choose from. The Germanium diode provides a warm, natural distortion that is similar to the Klon circuit.

Vintage Analog Compressor Core

The Valve Crystal is designed more like an amplifier than an effector.
The amp model is the JM signature model that made TR-AMP famous.

This original circuit is the clean channel of the legendary amplifier DUMBLE.

Valve Crystal passes through the same integrated signal circuitry as your amp, delivering a gorgeous clean sound.
Unlike many DUMBLE effects, this unit does not have a flashy drive sound.
This is because many overdrives that use the Dumble name use TS or other overdrive circuits. It's just a Dumble sound the creator imagines.
