Walrus is on the $99 pedals train with their 'Fundamentals" lineup. I requested the 4 pedals I was most interested so that's what they sent! Fuzz, Reverb, Delay & and of course Tremolo. I think its a pretty strong lineup, BUT WHAT DO YOU THINK?

I’m officially at the point where whenever I see a new pedal that looks interesting, I spend the day waiting for a 60 cycle hum video. Thanks Ryan for all the laughs since Covid started! I own two JHS pedals and a Behringer because of you, and I am grateful!
Me too! 😅
The best part of your demos are the fact you play EXACTLY the things i would play or want to hear played. Not only do you play the riffs i know well. But you also tweek and manipulate like i would. Thanks for being of like mind 😁😁
I really do have fun watching you play with pedals, I see myself as well because I too love to find sounds in a playful way as well. I don’t like Walrus stuff usually but that delay pedal has no business being that good for that price! Wow.. the non oscillation is my fav part.
You should do a step above the afford-a-board series! Make a board of the best pedals that run a bit pricier than the China Amazon type pedals maybe with a $130 cut off.... the middle class board series?
Super Cool Reverb pedal from Walrus
The Reverb is the one that got my attention. Spring and Hall both sound fab.
Oh nice Walrus pedals are really sick
I was thinking about going for the Holy Grail Neo, but im digging the sound of the reverb in this line.
Love the sliders.not sure I've seen em before.akways thought there should be a drive pedal or chorus that looked like a 5,7,9 band eq, but they where really just regular parameters. So that's cool
Whenever Ryan experiments on fuzz, an angel gets its wings... Thanks for this review, you Surf-rock Viking.
i just ordered that Walrus Fuzzzzz...that thang sounds gnarly !
Did I catch a little ROCKET FROM THE CRYPT riff in there?! Love it! Keep up the great reviews, Ryan, and don’t let the haters get you down! Happy to see quality affordable pedals by out by my fave dudes. 🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼
That reverb is great
I dig the sliders. Seems like less chance of getting settings messed up in transit
i bet its easy to lock them into place with some gaff tape. not so much with a knob.
I just wonder if those slider pots are beer resistant? Great demo!
I think the sliders are cool. I heard the chorus and flanger in an Andertons video and they both sounded great. The side mounted power jack is not ideal, but not a big deal to me either. Looks like a very nice set of pedals at decent prices IMHO.
Just when I was wandering what if the smith's song would work he starts playing it . Wow !
That Delay pedal is really attractive to me. Thinkin' about getting a second delay pedal (yeah, fight me) and this seems to do what my first in line delay would "need". One going mono dotted 8 and second going stereo quarter ping pongy.
You should check out the chorus and phaser. I'd watch 40 minutes of that, looks like a sweet line.
"An hour of great new pedals, hosted by the Incredible Shrinking Ryan"😁
I thought the trem and delay were the best of the set.
"When do you ever put something before fuzz, you shouldn't!"
I look over to my pedal chain and it's all fuzz after reverb 🤣
You should demo reverb into fuzz too for us gazers ❤
Ryan thinks every 3-knob fuzz is a muff so maybe not 😹
Wish the power jacks were top mounted..also won't gunk n' dust get into the slider troughs..hm..and anyone try the new Gamma pedal line yet? Looks/sounds tight..
Interesting, the I/O are on the top and the 9V on the side. I like the opposite, but at least they aren't together getting in each other's way, so I guess that's pretty good.
I know you’re a budget pedal type channel but I love your channel and would love to see some cloudburst and maybe a morning glory review.
I cover all sorts of stuff, not just budget. But I have a personal rule of waiting for brands to approach me to cover gear. Strymon hasnt hit me up in a long while and the morning glory isnt exactly a new pedals so i doubt JHS is going to randomly ask me to do a demo.
They had me at "sliders",
the design style - graphic line into the LED - only adds desire to that. THAT is presentation.
Every time you let a chord ring on that fuzz (in "classic" mode) it showed no signs that it would ever decay out. Us Doomers need a sustain test on that (play one chord & start the clock) to see if it really does have the epic sustain it appears to have.
The reverb ( weak point in any budget line) delivers really well on audio quality when it probably shouldn't, sorry it didn't drip for you.
If i were in the market for a delay I'd be sold on those spaceship capabilities.
This line has a lot of promise, I'm off to hear what the distortion sounds like as a minimum.
guitar pedals have us sooooo trained for the turn pots, that i don't know how to feel about these sliding pots..... also, was that supposed to be a nod to the RFTC "on a rope" riff during the fuzz demo? if so, then HELL YEAH!
I couldn’t remember what it was while I was playing it but it totally was.
I also have trouble stacking petals. Cascading gain is just not my thing.
@7:41 is the best settings imo
my dog licks sliders for some reason
It's always the worst after one of their cleaning sessions
Best comment of the day, you get a free sandwich.
Weirdly good point. My dog bites sliders. But leaves everything else.
Is it typical for tremolo effect that when the distortion/gain level is higher, the tremolo sweep effect is drowned out so much that it can only be heard after the distorted chord/sound has faded? I have this fundamental tremolo and it works more clearly only on the clean channel or with a small level of overdrive (tremolo connected in a chain - I tried before and after overdrive)
I DO hate side power jacks. Absolutely HATE them, but, those are VERY nice pedals and a beautiful idea for a soundboard pedal station.
as someone who doesn't play surf, I would've been sold on the reverb if it had a good drippy spring setting. absolutely love that sound. gonna have to stick with my boss reverb for now i suppose, but im totally sold on the delay. been needing a new delay and can't get enough of good pedals with sliders and these definitely scratch that itch lol
Which boss reverb? I'd like to get a better surf sound. Got the mosky affordaboard reverb and it's pretty good for just $30
@@michaelclark5796 the rv6 has a good spring setting, you can hear a little bit of a weird digital artifact thing but like ryan said in one of his videos it’s kind of charming. i’d recommend trying it first but its a great pedal with the other settings in it
Totally bummed that it doesn't drip. Guess the EHX Oceans 11 is still the budget option. And it's not even cheap.
To put the power insert to the side and a top mounted signal cables is the most briljant idea in these pedals.
Keep the power cables away from signal cables = less noice...
This is a very controversial take.
PLEASE review the rest of this line
I’d like too but there’s a lot on my plate right now so I’m not sure when I’ll get around to it.
The fuzz was alright, kind of a Muff-face? The gate is cool. I'd be sold on that verb if it were stereo (I'm trapped in headphone land, so I hafta have a stereo verb, but man it was delicious.) That delay does it's own kind of freakout, and the delay is very hi fi, which is a nice alternative. Then you get all that sweet analog and reverse stuff. Probably not a better $130 mono delay out there. Middle click is trash. Trem is right at home, and with a volume slider? Yup, this is a good quartet. I feel like everybody that's done one of these budget lines has tried to be a little "fancier" than The 3 Series in aesthetic, but there's just something sweet about those little do-it-yourself milk cartons. But these are pretty cool. Goo-goo-ga-good job!
Price point is a bit much on the Reverb and Delay. 130 is not far from something like the Boss Rv-6, which has several more options and controls.
Did you say you were in “Your Favorite Band”? (In another video)
If so that’s nuts to me. My brothers band played some shows with you guys for awhile (we were Temecula people). Didn’t you guys have a song about traffic lights?
Sorry if I’m way off. Just a bit exciting to myself since that era feels so long gone to me.
LOL yep. Steve (the bass player from yfb) is my cohost for the podcast portion of this channel. There's no, stop signs on the freeway....
@@60CycleHumcast Ha! Fantastic!
“So why is everyone (everybody) stopping” sorry if I butchered the lyrics. I’d love to hear that song again. I’ve mentioned it to my wife so many times.
And thank you for the reminder and for responding to my comment.
Yes the tap on that trem would have been sweet ! Sounds A anyway
I'm sold on that delay. That's hot patootie.
I like the look. The price point is a value proposition for a quality Made in the US pedal from a reputable builder. As much as I live Brian Wampler he missed the boat with his "value line" being made OCONUS at the same price point as the JHS line and these. They sound good and seem fun, which is important. The sliders.... even Zach from Mythos ditched them on the RJ pedal because of issues sourcing quality parts, resulting in reliability concerns. For the living room player, probably fine, but i'd prefer knobs if the sliders are the physical impediment to putting the power port on top.
As an economics guy, I would LOVE for one of these companies to OPENLY repackage one of their premium pedals into a discount enclosure just to see how much extra value the artwork adds.
Like, Walrus: take the Jupiter or whatever their most basic fuzz is, and then reissue it in these slider “budget” enclosures and see how well the budget-fied pedal does against the premium pretty artwork version.
@Ryan:
How many reverbs you own now?
I own 13 reverbs and some of them are on my shelf because of your demos.
Is there a chance you are going for an updated Reverb shoot out?
can you make your chart of its? and what you can say about Alexander Space Race/Force if you use it?
a lot, too many, i should sell some lol. I actually have more fuzzes than anything though.

@@TheElrondo thanks. i order HOF 1 today.
@@Sturisoma
The HOF is a real bargain.
Lot's of quality reverbs for the money and nice features like the Toneprints and the Mash Button function.
The only "problem" is the Spring Reverb sounds springy, but doesn't have a real drip.
If you can live with that you have a great pedal.
Cool demo, the fuzz and delay are fun, too bad you didn’t cover the PHASER…
The delay isn't bad, but it just isn't that useful. I can't tell if the mix control goes full wet. It doesn't appear to. Try putting the reverb in front of the fuzz.
The delay sounds like more than the typical 650ms but less than a second. Pretty decent. Not really analog type decay as much as just obvious tone filtering, but still nice. Cool '50s Sci-Fi echos too. I like it. But is it noisy? Sadly ignored subject in reviews.
I clocked it at a full second while editing.
Well done walrus. Hopefully clear out some of those garbage brands selling complete crap for $100.
These are very good.
Still no volture!! Or will the space ships crash??
39:11 is making it extremely hard for me to choose the Fundamental Chorus over it..
Reverb: both hall and spring are just another plate variants
Wish u woulda bent some high notes and played a lil crazy leads with that fuzz bro ,,, overall great video thanks !❤
As an electronics technician, I don’t like faders on the floor. Unreliable dirt/dust traps!
I got those new pedals recommend on another channel, on the fly i looked up if Ryan already tested the reverb.
And Yes he did!
Even it has a very settle drip it has some Spaghetti Western qualities.
Feel like the Fuzz was the big weak point of this lineup. The reverb sounded great and the delay was good, but I'm not sure what would set it apart from similar delays at that price point.
Top mount jacks but sound mount power. Wtf.
Not into the sliders
Also, I think trying to drip on a humbucker is a little unfair. I have humbuckers that won't get very drippy with my surfybear.
I really enjoy Walrus product, and was surprised when they started working with GC.Somehow, they got that big; I know that I own or have tried most of the line.
The only area where their selection was weak was Fuzz; the Kangra is cool, but not really my bag, but the Jupiter and Contraband were forgettable.
Sliders are definitely the new thing, as is putting out lines of economy pedals.These are as solid as I'd expect, the Fuzz something I once would have gone for,- many Fuzzes ago.The gate is def nice.
How about a design like the Fairfield ~900? It seems like a very promising area to explore.
Have you tried the eons fuzz? It’s been my go to fuzz for awhile now
@@60CycleHumcast Yeah,- hey Ryan, - almost forgot about that.Close, but no cigar; a little too Muffy?IDK, maybe I've set the target unrealistically high,having heard some outstanding sounds out of some uncommon pedals.Jext Telez ,Aclam, the old Skinpimp designs, - all now very expensive or hard to find.
As you point out, much of what you respond to gets lost in the mix, anyway.
Thanks for the channel that speaks to my musical tastes, at any rate.
@@markferguson3745 it’s pretty versatile, 5 different clipping options, bass and high eq, and voltage starving. But if you don’t like that flavor of fuzz you don’t like it.
I really don’t like tap tempo. It’s too hard to get exactly what I want. It’s always just a bed off.
BUT BRO SLIDERS
I got a hot take. You have a way of dismissing reverbs too quick based on their drip quality. I think its psychosomatic and most of your issue lies within your amps eq. They effect eachother greatly and I've never seen you alter an amps eq to try and impact the drip.
how would adjusting the amps eq affect the drip coming from a pedal? If i see a spring setting im going to test it for drip because thats a sound i chase.
I agree a little bit. I have adjusted more highs, which can bring a drip that's already there(it has to be present to begin with) and turn it up more to give it the higher clickyness. That said, yea I love drip but I'm not sure I'd only look for that,and if not present, kinda dismiss it.its like having an overdrive and being like "...meh.." that it doesn't sound like a tube screamer. I get both sides,cuz I love drip.but do think it's not,not unfair, but more so kinda closed off, to only want surf reverb and write everything off that doesn't do that specific thing as not all pedals are Gunna do it and not all pedals need to be designed to drip, as I'm sure many hear that only think surf,and write it off since it's not something they're into
@@NintenDub chasing drippy reverb has been a big part of this channel but I don’t think i completely write off reverbs if they don’t drip. I can appreciate non surf reverbs for their other qualities.
I think this reverb can do surf/spaghetti western style 60s stuff with the right overall settings but I also agree it's definitely not going for outboard reverb tank tones. That being said it's also a little more springy than a lot of amp reverb emulations I've heard.
@@60CycleHumcast I agree - you've praised a lot of reverbs that don't drip and then just mention that you tend to prefer the drip sound. Having preferences on the internet is still allowed I'm hoping LOL
Take that JHS 3 series!
If you say "neetch" or "nitch" one more time ...
naughtch?
The fuzz is really crappy. Every setting other than tone sounds almost the same, very generic, whatever the settings. It's the least flexible fuzz I've seen lately despite all its controls. The reverb is nice, and really, how bad can a tremolo be if it does its job?
I’m am NOT the walrus
One Beatle down, did you marry a Bond girl, did you lose your mind with Harry Nielsen in the 70s, did you hang with the Pythons on occasion...?
ok

😂
I just wish these pedal testers were actually good at guitar and not just trying out nonsense that you would never use in a musical context.
There are plenty of people playing blue licks over and over on here. Go find them
The intro sounded like throbbing gristle🏭
That is one noisy fuzzbox
