The perfect companion now comes in a smaller package - meet Sidekick JR !
Taking inspiration from the senior unit we released back in 2019, our goal was to create a compact pedal that would combine the most widely used time-based effects and would fit into any gear setup lurking for 80s tones and beyond. From the jangly, ambient and shimmering sounds of New Wave, Shoegaze and Synth Pop to the soaking wet tones of Hair / Glam Metal. The new Sidekick JR features even more sounds / algorithm selections compared to the senior unit.
Modulation effect / algorithms were inspired by classic 80s stompboxes. “Ensemble” algorithm resembles warm and mild modulated chorus sounds while the “dimension” algorithm will enhance the 3D image of your sound but without the typical chorus warble. The “flanger” algorithm was inspired by a classic flanger pedal being set up as a slow chorus with mild feedback added for a more metallic sound.
Echo / delay section offers the sweet but vibrant sound of a tape echo with a freshly installed tape running through a colourful preamp or the pristine repeats of an 80s digital delay rack unit.
Reverb section was inspired by definitive examples of 80s reverb rack units and sounds and offers two algorithm banks. Bank A features all time classic reverbs sounds like “plate”, “spring” and “hall” while Bank B features signature 80s reverb sounds like “gated”, “exciter” (our trademark big-hall reverb algorithm with almost infinite reflections and decay) and octave up “shimmer”.
In order to provide full flexibility in the smallest enclosure possible we had to come up with a smart switching setup. As per standard onboard function, the delay and reverb effect sections of Sidekick JR operate independently from each other and the modulation is assignable to any of these sections. With the addition of the XT footswitch (sold separately) the modulation section becomes totally independent and can be switched on/off (true bypass) on its own.
Sidekick JR also features a power-up bypass/engage pre-set function for the onboard footswitches. That way you can select which state your pedal will go to when you plug the power supply. This function comes in especially handy to people that use remote pedal switchers / loopers as they only set the power-up state of the pedal once and then operate from the controller.

Let customers speak for us
It's like my old Eden WT800 and Ampeg SVT heads got together, had a bastard love-child that won the genetic lottery, then blasted that child with some sort of mad scientist shrink ray! So small it fits in my accessories bag - I don't even need to get a separate bag/rack for it - and my ageing joints love that it's barely 2 kg. The controls are so simple and intuitive, yet there is a surprising range of usable tones in this this. Sounds great with my pedal board and it works awesome with my current band. I don't regret going with the Quilter Bass Block at all!
First Klon style pedal I’ve ever owned.. does the job beautifully and saved myself about five thousand dollars.!! Delivered prompt and efficiently within a few days…. No complaints here.
Bought the Quilter Superblock US as an easy to carry alternative to the 50w valve head I usually take to gigs and jams. Matched with a 1x12 cabinet it sounds great, big sound for such a small package. Very happy with this amp.
Good solid tuner that’s seems to be well built, keeps tune well, buffer works great or alternatively has a button to disengage buffer for true bypass, great alternative to the usual tuner pedals on the market.. Great service from AME pedal arrived within a few days of order, and I got 10% off the price for my first purchase.
Simple and effective, though I prefer the older design.
This pedal is amazing! So smooth and responsive. High quality.
