Wow, I never imagined we'd get on Record Time. Thanks so much! Umpire and Purplene are two other Australian bands you might like if you enjoyed the Sandpit record. Thanks again!! - Brendan
Early Gaslight radio were good too. Saw you guys quite a few times, loved your work, thank you for the memories, album and EP's BTW. Brendan surely you have some live Sandpit somewhere you can upload to youtube...please :D ruclips.net/video/K31R4hArAks/видео.html ruclips.net/video/MbAzYhpYs4k/видео.html
I think that's part of the reason why his channel is so great. He only puts out videos he wants to. So many creators have to have regular output to maintain and grow an audience while JHS is literally doing this for fun.
@@shawnmcvey7789 i mean it has been weekly for over a year , but thats probably more because of youtubes algorithms... if you dont create regularly - they dont promote you
@KC Fan boy rage? That's rich. I love the show. Josh is a class act. I'm sure he makes money, good for him! He didn't work hard at his business to go broke. Not sure what your problem is, dude.
I barely squeak out one bit at a time on my low budget. I am not about to say which vintage pieces were damned by Josh's effusive praise, but he's set my life back many months already, I am pretty relieved that this week, at least, he has illuminated a line of pedals that are still in production.
To be fair, though, Mojo Hand's pricing has never been that affordable. Maybe not as much as Earthquaker or *gasp* JHS, but yeah... They've always been fairly spendy. IME
Love this Channel because Josh speaks really slow and clear for those like me who are not that good at understanding the language. Don't need subtitles at all. Besides, the content is top notch.
Josh should open a pedal museum where people can come in, view, and play pedals in his collection. I would love to check out some of those vintage fuzz pedals!
Me too. I know he has some sick Tone Benders and Fuzz Faces, Rangemaster’s and Foxx Tone Machines plus a lot of other old school fuzz pedals like Maestro’s and EHX, Gibson...etc....
As a Holland, Michigan based musician I have to point out that not only is the park theatre historic and beautiful, but it’s a nonprofit music venue that hosts open mics and all sorts of great local musicians. It’s really the central hub of the music community here in Holland and the money from the sale of the Park Theatre pedal has helped provide an amazing venue for all kinds of self expression and creativity
The RVT is unreal. I put it in the FX loop of my MAZ 18 and it does this crazy huge sounding hall effect when I turn on my overdrives in front of my amp. Very lush, very warm. Super rad :D
Great stuff maestro. Shout out to Cusack too. ;) The first time I heard you mention his name I had visions of the actor John Cusack building pedals in his spare time. Lol. DOH!!
Thanks for sharing the bounty of Mojo Hand with us, Josh. I have to admit that I'd never stumbled across Mojo Hand until now, but their pedals are really...tasteful, for want of a more precise adjective; a huge amount of thought has clearly gone into their design.
I walked in to my local music store to see what they had and the employee who is a big pedal guy said to try the RVT. I loved it. I came home, saw this video, and went right back to buy it. It sounds amazing. This was fate.
This is a great video. I love mojohand fx! I have an old pink iron bell and a new colossus. This helped me realize I need a few more of their pedals. I also have JHS pulp n peel v4, moonshine v1, and JHS magic hat. You guys make my suhr strat sound amazing on my laney lionheart studio 5. Keep up the amazing work!
I own a 1966 Gibson GA-15RVT (also called Gibson Explorer) and it is a very cool amp. The reverb is very cavernous and works in an odd way. If you plug into the amp, turn down the volume (loudness) and crank up the reverb all the way, you get this weird 100% wet distorted reverb. If I am not mistaken, it is a tube driven spring reverb.
I have the Mojo Hand FX Rook Royale, which is a brilliant EP3 boost combined with the Rook TS9 style overdrive. I really love playing through it. And I think I'd love the Crosstown fuzz almost as much. Thanks for another great episode!
I just want to get it on the record before this blows up that the Rook has been my go-to pedal for awhile. And the Odessa is both the Rook (left side) and the Magpie (right side). I have the Rook paired with my Morning Glory on one board and my Odessa on my other. Soo goooood.
The first Mojo Hand pedal that caught my attention was the 1-knob Nebula. Super nice. The thing that made me a Mojo Hand user was the BMP-1. I had a Tall Font Russian Muff (the 1st pedal I bought) and it was big & hard to power but was my Muff of choice. The BMP-1 was a sturdy, small, easy to use & great sounding replacement.
I have a Crosstown Fuzz that I got about a year ago and I LOVE it. Seriously underrated company, imo. It sounds fantastic, the build quality is excellent, and the yellow and [metallic!] purple paint job is groooovy Running the Crosstown into my JHS Unicorn V1 (volume and intensity maxed), Machine Gun and Star Spangled Banner sound just like they should! (Or, at least they would if I could play anything like Hendrix of course lol)
Some Shoegaze bands. Curve, Lush, Slowdive, Ride, Telescopes, Swervedriver, Kitchens of Distinction, Drop Nineteens, Cathrine Wheel, Ringo Deathstarr, Airiel. Check out Horror Head by Curve, Nothing Natural by Lush
Most of those bands are the ones the "genre" is most indebted to. A fine, fine list. Drop Nineteens. There's a band who's star burned brightly for a very very short period of time. Glad to see they are still in the thoughts (and ears) of fans.
It's great that you know the intention and technical side behind the pedals. Like the story about the theater or the germanium resistor. These facts put the pedals into a continuum of time and technology and help people understand the timelines and evolution of time. Appreciated!
The El Guapo fuzz! That thing is so versatile with that starve knob you can get all kinds of variations of big muff sounds. That thing goes from just a booster all the way up to a madded mess of nothing.
There's so much timbral range on the "depth" control of a Fuzzrite it oculd have been made to sound a lot more similar to the Mojo Hand counterpart, at least in terms of frequency response. You can get an absurd amount of low-mid out of those things, and the middle of the control range gets into this weird, spitty, broken kind of sound that reminds me a bit of some of the Devi Ever pedals. IIRC it's a pretty unusual design for a fuzz circuit, and nothing else really sounds quite like it. Especially if you stack it with another fuzz.
I really appreciate you and your company Josh! I emailed in and dealt with Zach in your customer service department and it had to be one of the best customer service experiences I’ve had in my life
Just listened to the Sandpit album- it made me understand what the Happy Monday’s would sound like if they’d been sad. Loving your work as usual- especially the shared love thing you Pedal guys seem to have , I mean can you imagine the Ferrari RUclips channel saying “...check out these new Porches they’re awesome...”? Best wishes and warm hugs from the UK xxx
That Dream Mender was absolutely indistinguishable from the Memory Man. And whatever pedal you shotout with the Klon, I thought sounded better than the Klon. Somehow fuller sounding, but with the same tone.
You didn't mention the Colossus fuzz! I have one, and it's quite super good. And in fact, I use it for really hi-gain stuff > seems more a gated-distortion, rather than a classic big muff. Perfect for turning my twin-reverb to a sort of metal machine, but far more organic. Don't know ho w to explain. Anyway it sounds HUGE and awesome.
Great episode!! Re Sandpit - Stephanie Ashworth (bass) went on to join Something For Kate who had some fairly big indie level success in Australia back when bands could still do that! They’ve got so many great albums but my favourite has to be “Elsewhere For 8 Minutes”. I think you’ll like it if you’re into Sandpit.
Brad is such a great guy (never met him in person). Tone Factor was my go to online pedal store. I have three mojo hand pedals: Nebula phaser (seriously my favorite phase to this day), Huckleberry fuzz, and 442 envelope filter. Thanks for showing off some of his pedals.
Great video, Josh! Have to find out where to get these Mojo Hand pedals here in Australia...they would be about twice the price, I guess (after your presentation...).
every time my 8 yo daughter comes in and im watching this, shes like "do you want that pedal now?" also just checked out Sandpit. pretty great! a newer band that I like alot that reminds me of them is DIIV. Their latest album "Deceiver" is fantastic.
Thanks for playing the Mossrite Fuzzrite on this video. It was my first pedal in probably '69. I found it fun and cool but irritating so I traded it to somebody for something. I don't want it back but it was fun to hear it. I remember that sounded somewhat less irritating through a Sears 1466 bass amp that I borrowed from a friend. Probably a roll off of the highs compared to a silver face Band Master. this was great video segment in a great series. Rock on Dude man.
@@Soldano999 Dude, we are all being suckered by utube as the new content advertising. Our GAS is being puppeteered by masters. I'm not saying Josh is machevalian... But as a whole, Utube has gotten me to spend $5K in the last 18 months, and I'm still in debt for a gang for that. Having not spent a cent on guitar gear since 1999. What about you! Furthermore, JHS has doubled it's business value Josh started this channel! (Idk that that's true - in fact I completely made ir up!😋 But it might be true.... Right??! Hahaha, jokes aside tho.... I'd be astounded if there wasn't a notable visible bump on the chart of business revenue over recent yrs, since this channel started).
Luey Sixty-six well that's right i have been a part of this business myself, i used to be product manager for ernie ball in france and i also organised a demo tour in stores for rocktron. Yourube is a fantastic marketing tool. Still i am the one looking for content. It used to be really hard to find good demos. Early youtube demos weren't great but with people like ola and josh they manage in just a few minutes to give you an understanding of how equipment works, sounds and it's intended purpose which adds a lot more context to just sound clips. So i'm happy to give my money where there's quality. Same goes for orher hobbies like retrogaming and collecting comic books. It replaced TV and radio for me i listen to these guys drinking my coffee in the morning.
A Mojo Hand Colossus fuzz (pretty sure it's a Muff on steroids, with a mids control) has been a mainstay of my board for years. Nothing sounds like it. It can thump like a metal pedal, while being wild, wooly and a bit gritty all at the same time.
MojoHand’s 1979 is the best OpAmp Muff I’ve played. Awesome customer service. I had messaged them to see if they could do a custom white/Orange enclosure for me, and they were happy to oblige. Great company
Is it a big step up from the EHX OpAmp Muff? I'm trying to decide on an OpAmp Muff, and obviously it's a bit of a price jump...just wondering if it's worth spending the extra or just saving for other GAS and getting the EHX.
Josh made quite the move with doing these videos,finding a way to provide a substantial service to the music community.I don't know anyone who plays, of any generation or genre, that isn't familiar.You can argue the necessity of JHS as a pedal manufacturer( among now so many), but you can't really argue with their influence or impact, anymore.
Los from years back would list the gear used and even the recording equipment. I remember reading the line notes of early Beatles records from my mom's collection. By the way she is responsible for my live of music. She had everything from big band, jazz, crooners, country, symphonies, rock and even recordings of Broadway musicals. I'm grateful to her for broadening my musical palate.
Wow, that RVT pedal! And the prices for their pedals are very buyer friendly. Somehow all the Australia bands I know, love and have followed since the 80s I had completely missed Sandpit. The very little I've listened to so far reminds me a lot of Seam from the US. Josh, Nick (and world) I'd like you all to check out "Slow Train to a Comfy Jail" from the album Come Across by Sydney, Australia's Jamie Hutchings and his band Bluebottle Kiss (now defunct. Jamie, however has not stopped releasing quality music under his own name and another band he fronts called Infinity Broke and other projects). Please, please, please give him a listen. Incredible songwriter with stacks of great songs performed that will give you the feels with hooks, intensity and more. Thanks for the down low on Mojo Hand.
Sandpit are amazing. Hearing them makes me want to listen to tracks like Splat! by Bailterspace, early Magic Dirt, Ovlov, Underground Lovers, Dinosaur & Electr-o-pura era Yo La.... I could go on!
Me at 5:05 on the video: “yeah fine the Crosstown sounds ok and all” Me at 5:15 on the video: “WHERE IS MY MASTERCARD I NEED THREE OF THESE CROSSTOWN PEDALS AND I NEED THEM SENT OVERNIGHT” 😂 That’s some goooooood fuzz
I also love when bands put their gear on the back of the record. I have a music review site you might like that is exclusively run by musicians. We cover a lot of unsigned and local bands and do a complete rig run down on their recording process. If you search my name, Ada Wofford, and My Little Underground it should pop up.

This is a hall of fame RUclips moment
*Josh is the Mr. Rogers of pedal videos*
He can be my neighbor.
That's exactly how it feels.

My favorite RUclipsr, guy has regular business and does this on the side( not a full time youtuber ) . So Respect earned for being Real.
I think that's part of the reason why his channel is so great. He only puts out videos he wants to. So many creators have to have regular output to maintain and grow an audience while JHS is literally doing this for fun.

@KC Yeah, he makes a bundle saying how great everyone else's pedals are.
@KC Sounds like you're the one who has the problem. I love the fact that he promotes other brands and had nothing but good things to say.
@KC Fan boy rage? That's rich. I love the show. Josh is a class act. I'm sure he makes money, good for him! He didn't work hard at his business to go broke. Not sure what your problem is, dude.
What's the deal with JHS and their great RUclips content?
WHAT'S THE DEAL?!?!?!
Mojo Hand prices are risiiiiiinggg! 🔥 We should accept that the “JHS effect” is a reality.
I barely squeak out one bit at a time on my low budget. I am not about to say which vintage pieces were damned by Josh's effusive praise, but he's set my life back many months already, I am pretty relieved that this week, at least, he has illuminated a line of pedals that are still in production.
If Josh told me what was gonna be on the show next and I bought up a ton of 'em to sell on eVerb and ReBay, would that be insider trading?
Even crappy ones
To be fair, though, Mojo Hand's pricing has never been that affordable. Maybe not as much as Earthquaker or *gasp* JHS, but yeah... They've always been fairly spendy. IME
So how much did prices rise? $5? $50?//
Love this Channel because Josh speaks really slow and clear for those like me who are not that good at understanding the language. Don't need subtitles at all. Besides, the content is top notch.
Josh holds up any pedal “this is my favorite pedal”
Josh loves all, and all love Josh.
the omnibenevolent pedal God
Well, then, - I guess he truly found his place in the world,- right?
I love this channel because we can see how much he really loves pedals and pedal making.
Ahahahaha, absolutely!
Josh what if (and hear me out) you gave us one of your beautiful and fantastic videos but about pedal modding 101? :D
🤚🤚🤚 I second
From what I know about Josh, he would teach well enough to put himself out of business lol
Watch wamplers youtube
if you know where to look on the interwebs, he's already in some modding/building groups giving out great advice

After watching this video I just ordered the Crosstown. Hearing you play it, I could tell it's exactly what I was looking for.
Just getting into pedals, so your channel has been a lifesaver. Thanks for the intro to Mojo Hand!
Josh, love that while you are passionate about your business, you have and show love for the entire industry.
Super happy you featured the Crosstown! Super underrated: Really versatile, sounds amazing, and works great with a wah!
The best record time yet! And seriously; such a great show Josh.
Damn! Mojo Hand is one of my favorite “under the radar” companies. Now the prices are about to shoot rocket!
Andrew, you are so right. They are criminally overlooked. I’m a fuzz nerd and every single one of their Fuzz pedals is amazing.
That One Ton Bee sounded fantastic, holy moly
Great stuff maestro. Shout out to Cusack too. ;) The first time I heard you mention his name I had visions of the actor John Cusack building pedals in his spare time. Lol. DOH!!
That RVT sounded so good! So fun learning this stuff!!!
Thanks for sharing the bounty of Mojo Hand with us, Josh. I have to admit that I'd never stumbled across Mojo Hand until now, but their pedals are really...tasteful, for want of a more precise adjective; a huge amount of thought has clearly gone into their design.
I was blown away by the One-Ton 🐝 and the Park Theatre reverb. Once I start making a pedalboard, those two are absolutely going on it!
It’s so cool you promote other people’s pedals. I own a few Mojo Hand FX pedals and plan to get that RVT and Dream Mender now. Thanks!
Sandpit, what a great album. It reminds me (just a little bit) of Elliot Smith, especially his last album. The OneTonBee was really cool.
DewDrop is a fantastic reverb pedal. Thanks Josh for featuring a builder in my neck of he woods!
I bought a Park Theater pedal because of this video and absolutely love it. Thank you Josh.
as usual the Deezer playlist "JHS Record time" has been updated
the Mojo Hand Gyro is the most enjoyable Leslie Cab sim I have ever played - love it!!
I luv Mojo Hand FX. But you FORGOT mentioning the amazing Iron Bell muff pedal!!!! It's my favourite pedal for Pink Floyd sounds. Hugs.
cool video, thanks. I have a MojoHand Crosstown on my board, had it for a few years now
I walked in to my local music store to see what they had and the employee who is a big pedal guy said to try the RVT. I loved it. I came home, saw this video, and went right back to buy it. It sounds amazing. This was fate.
Dang it! That Dream Mender surely packed a ton inside that small enclosure! Congrats on the delay release! Mojo hand and JHS🤘🔥
This is a great video. I love mojohand fx! I have an old pink iron bell and a new colossus. This helped me realize I need a few more of their pedals.

No Colossus love? It's my favorite fuzz. Great episode on a great brand. Nice job!
Mojo Hand's DMBL is an awesome low to mid gain overdrive that mimics Dumble amplifier. It will never leave my possesion. Highly recommended.
Agreed, it's a great pedal. I bought one and run it through my Orange Pedal Baby with a JHS Spring Tank. Very tasty indeed!

They’ve got so many great albums but my favourite has to be “Elsewhere For 8 Minutes”. I think you’ll like it if you’re into Sandpit.
Alternative viewpoint: Sandpit were bloody amazing and Something For Kate wildly overrated; I never could fathom why Stephanie made that switch.

Don't have to sell me on MojoHandFX. My Rook is my always-on. I also love the Magpie & El Guapo. I guess the secret's out.

It's a little bit understated, which is a nice contrast with most OD pedals.

Lovin' my Mojo Hand FX Villanova Vibe. My search for Univibes ended when I plugged that in for the first time.
The Villanova is exceptional.I found it to be the only reasonable , good vibe; the others being over the $200 mark.Does it's own thing.
I'm kinda glad they "stole" your first Clover idea. I love the look of that pedal because it's clean, simple and a nod to the original.
Listening to Sandpit now and it’s giving me a Pinback sort of vibe. Very nice.
Los from years back would list the gear used and even the recording equipment. I remember reading the line notes of early Beatles records from my mom's collection. By the way she is responsible for my live of music. She had everything from big band, jazz, crooners, country, symphonies, rock and even recordings of Broadway musicals. I'm grateful to her for broadening my musical palate.
Wow, that RVT pedal! And the prices for their pedals are very buyer friendly. Somehow all the Australia bands I know, love and have followed since the 80s I had completely missed Sandpit. The very little I've listened to so far reminds me a lot of Seam from the US. Josh, Nick (and world) I'd like you all to check out "Slow Train to a Comfy Jail" from the album Come Across by Sydney, Australia's Jamie Hutchings and his band Bluebottle Kiss (now defunct. Jamie, however has not stopped releasing quality music under his own name and another band he fronts called Infinity Broke and other projects). Please, please, please give him a listen. Incredible songwriter with stacks of great songs performed that will give you the feels with hooks, intensity and more. Thanks for the down low on Mojo Hand.
The Dream Mender is really nice!
Josh is a genius, hiding in plain sight. While there are many, very good YT channels for guitarists, this one is produced on a whole different level.
Loving your videos, Josh!
You've cured me of GAS for a Dumble style overdrive.
But wow! I'm gonna have to get an RVT!
Surprised you did not show the Mojo Hand FX Colossus. I have the old copper version and it is one of the best Fuzz pedals ever made.
And they don’t pop up to often anymore !!!
I learned that a pedal company is just down the road from me. I am a happy nerd. :)

I literally read this whilst Josh was saying it. #Spooky
Sandpit are amazing. Hearing them makes me want to listen to tracks like Splat! by Bailterspace, early Magic Dirt, Ovlov, Underground Lovers, Dinosaur & Electr-o-pura era Yo La.... I could go on!
Me at 5:05 on the video: “yeah fine the Crosstown sounds ok and all”
Me at 5:15 on the video: “WHERE IS MY MASTERCARD I NEED THREE OF THESE CROSSTOWN PEDALS AND I NEED THEM SENT OVERNIGHT” 😂 That’s some goooooood fuzz
I've had a Sacred Cow on my pedalboard for years. It does the "clean" boost thing very well but with the gain turned up a little it sounds amazing.
Bought my first JHS Pedal the other day. Whitey Tighty. Loving it 🖤
Dang. The RVT really impressed me.
Crosstown sounds amazing!
Nice job Josh. The sacred cow and your Unicorn are two of my favorites.
I also love when bands put their gear on the back of the record. I have a music review site you might like that is exclusively run by musicians. We cover a lot of unsigned and local bands and do a complete rig run down on their recording process. If you search my name, Ada Wofford, and My Little Underground it should pop up.
hey, thanks for sandpit, the album is amazing! didnt know 'em before and never heard of, they're just great.
the Crosstown Fuzz is fantastic
I wish I could afford to be a patron for you. But either way it’s so awesome that you can give stuff away to you’re awesome fans!!!
I had a BMP-2. Despite it being a bit noisy it was a killer, killer pedal. Definitely on the hunt for another
Hey! I’ve played the Park Theatre a few times but had no idea about the pedal. That’s awesome
Thank you, sir. You’ve inspired me again! Headed for the woodshed.
thank you for the entertain show, and the information. Great presentation style , so inviting
