    Cool demo! I know that Josh isn't necessarily a metal guy, but given his track record of making a BUNCH of killer pedals it doesn't surprise me that team JHS made a really good sounding high gain pedal.
    The problem with most high gain pedals that I have found is that compared to going straight into a dialed in amp, high gain pedals feel and sound very "artificial" me. They tighten the bass in a weird way (not like a TS as a boost does) almost choking it and there is usually a fizziness to the highs. I also feel like in really high gain pedals the mids are often over-scooped and they lack a certain presence, giving it a hollow-ish tone. This obv is my subjective opinion since I personally know lots of people that really like the way high gain pedals sound. This new pedal seems to have found a balance and provides enough controls to really dial in a quality high gain tone! I dig it a lot

    This pedal is perfect for Numetal because it can be used as a rectifier and produce low mids like a PRS. I wish I had found this pedal sooner.

      Plus you used a 5150 which = Win.

    • @ahriik
      @ahriik 3 месяца назад +1

      ​@@therewasascenenot to mention the majority of pedals on the market today are based on existing designs in one way or another. JHS just happens to be way more transparent about their design influences than other brands. There are many ways to distort a guitar signal, but only a small percentage of those result in something that's actually pleasing to the vast majority of peoples' ears. Most guitarists just want a variation of an existing design that they already like, and maybe just offers a slightly different set of adjustable parameters (less, more streamlined tweakability can be just as desirable as expanded tweakability).

  • @MRxr400
    @MRxr400 3 месяца назад +1

    I like it, but i have a few things I'd like to try out with it. How about a high gain amp, and low gain on pedal and using it as a clean boost and mid frequency boosted controls to voice it for solo's. i use a mid boost pedal this way with my mesa, and it ends up voicing the amp nicely, but i can't change frequency, it fixed. Anyway, it has a really cool vibe and sound taking me back to the old days, i feel maybe a bit fuzz orientated and compressed, maybe a bit like smashing pumpkins tone.

    How it is as a high gain amp booster?.

    • @emartinezr
      @emartinezr 3 месяца назад +1

      Because you can boost or cut any frequency, and you can choose which Mids you want to boost/cut.
      For example, you can boost high mids if you want. Or cut low mids. Etc. all while adding gain. If you just have one high gain amp, you're stuck to its own voicing which may not be a bad thing, but if you want to widen your tone options..... this pedal sounds pretty neat as a boost.
