One thing I love about JHS is the willingness to praise “competition”. I can’t even imagine Gibson making a video talking about how great a PRS line is. It’s a sign of someone who wants the community to be the best it can be, not just their company
This is the thing... I have learned so much about pedals from Josh's videos but I've never bought one of his. I will at some point as the karma overload is palpable. It was like when I had to buy Dylan pickups from watching so many Dylan Talks Tone videos, even though it cost an arm and a leg in custom tariffs.
@HöarFrøst Music Project Seriously, if you want the Strymon set more, you should get it! The universe is being kind to us :) You're awesome and thanks so much for the love.
The majority of Josh's content highlights other companies: competition and the extinct classics. I almost always now come for the jams. The level of tightness and creativity has really coalesced as of late.
Josh's playing has been particularly great in all of the episodes seriously, go back and watch. Not just a guitar pedal hero, but also a guitar hero in his own right. ^_^ one of my personal favorites is the jam from his "Must have Guitar Rig Essentials " video, so groovin'.
Josh is not a shredder, but he got that phrasing magic. And that's what a lot of the super shredders are missing for me. Not to diminish them. There's a lot of great players out there. But good/interesting phrasing is where all the soul is for me. That's why Brian May is my all time favorite.
I went to a guitar store once and there was this one dude there. It was a guitar center, so they had the gibsons all the way up top so nobody could play them... So he got one of the employees to get one down. He chose a gold top over a burst. Crazy. We all know that metallic finishes ruin the tonewood. You know it gives it a ice pick bright not sustainy sound you know. Back to the story. He sits down, goes to a Marshall head, plugs it in a 4x10 and cranks the gain and volume all the way up. Then that one bass player at GC glares at the guy because he knows its going to be loud. So the bassist is sitting there, playing the same thing over and over, moving his hand a cenimeter up or down to get the right tone but he just cant get it. But he knows something is going to go down, so he turns his blackstar modeling amp all the way up. Of course he cant match the guitarists volume though. Then ths guitarist plays hysteria by muse. Then the bassist gets up. You know he is one of those jamacian really big bassist with like 41 kids with god knows how many women. He walks up to the guy and he tells the guy to be chill man. The dude walks out of the electric room, and into the acoustic room so he can play without being disturbed by the bassist. He grabs the most expensive martin and starts playing hysteria again. Then, the bassist walks in and grabs an acoustic bass. And the guitarist is like what the hell in his head. The bassist and the guitarist start jamming, and then the bassist starts slapping his bass like a million miles an hour, like Victor wooden on crack.

well they ARE awesome. There should be more distortion pedals with parametric EQ as a tone section. Even if (judging by the "controversy") most guitarists are yet to learn how to use a parametric EQ. we should MAKE them learn!
Your jams are incredible. As good or better than the music you critic. And that's saying something. If you toured, I go out of my way to try to see ya.
I somehow read "jams" as "pants" and didn't even question it until I got to the part where you said you'd go see him for them. Not adding to the conversation, just sharing a dumb thing a brain did.
@JHS Pedals Do a ducking distortion. When you play fast the distortion ducks, then when you play slow the gain goes up so you can get crazy cool sustain.

The Red Fuzz1 is an absolute beast. It’s a fuzz for those that say they don’t like fuzz, you can place it anywhere in your signal chain, it’s very unique, and it’s hard to get a bad sound out of it! The other thing that’s super important to keep in mind is that it is actually-at its heart-an amp in a box! Yup, you read that correctly. One of the overarching design goals from the outset was to capture the sound of a Marshall stack being slammed with a really great fuzz! IMO, understanding this is an important key to realizing the Red Fuzz1’s full potential. 😎✌🏼
Thanks for the record recommendation, as always. I’d been getting stuck listening to the same things and since following your channel I’ve been able to expand my music listening in a wonderful way advised by the sounds i like hearing. Thanks bro!
Princess MIYAKO from the most excellent heavy metal band LOVEBITES uses Lunastone pedals. She might even be endorsed by them. She uses the overdrive pedals in front of her Peavey 6505+ amp. ( She is also endorsed by Peavey and Dean guitars, and SiT strings. )
This vid came out 33 minutes ago. I’m screenshotting Reverb’s Lunastone pedals list price high to low list and the low to hi list too. There’s 50 pedals total currently. Let’s see if you’re right.
I am: 1. Blown away by how many pedals you have 2. Excited for every jam you guys play, and want to see them live, and buy an album of them 3. Loving Record Time, every time Thank you.
While we're on the subject of Denmark, it's important that everyone check out the work of Kay Nielsen, who was an illustrator, an artist in the same league as Aubrey Beardsley and Alphonse Mucha, whom practically nobody has heard of outside of Denmark. Because Danish Art and Danish Guitar Pedals are inextricably linked, like pastries.
I scored a Red Fuzz from Reverb on a crazy deal and I love it. I mainly use it with the gain kinda low so it's more like a beefy light OD. Lunastone makes some good shit.
It's sounds like it could be from hail to the thief or in rainbows by Radiohead Oh just saw that josh says that himself in the vid so I guess I'm not being useful
Starlight Highway is sweet! When the solo kicks in, really mellow, but melodic. The second bar of the, the first note of the second bar, the longer high note did for me! It sits just perfectly in the jam, and that's the cherry on top for me! It's the note at 10:27. Plus that note at 10:50 that sounds kinda wrong, but it's not, and it grabbed my attention immediately! Nice!
On the overdrive pedals, "one" is way better than "two" despite them being fairly close in sound, "two " is to flabby and mushy, which might be why they like it, I don't know.
Denmark is an archipelago of islands - and a big bit stuck on top of Germany - so you are both right. I live in Denmark and had never heard of LunaStone till this video. He should have called the Delay pedal's ducking feature "ugly duck(l)ing". There aren't that many Danish punk rock guitarists so I am guessing it is Peter Peter formerly of Sort Sol. But yes Josh... you should come to Denmark. You'd love it here. (I'm not even Danish but when I got here I never left). I can even lend you a nice old retro MTB while you are here. A few of the pedals shown here I can't even buy direct from LunaStone's Danish webshop.
Dynamic delay is one of my favorite things, so it's nice to see a different take on TC's (also Danish) 2290, and too bad TC didn't do a dynamic delay for their smorgasbord series (love the quiet switching, true bypass and jacks-to-top format) They did stick a version in their Flashback pedals, so there's that, but I prefer the TC Nova Repeater which is super streamlined, easy-to-use and the quality is high enough, it doesn't sound at all 'digital' plus it gives you access to some mild-to-moderate modulation a la the EHX Deluxe Memory Man. It has a couple of quirks that I regard as features; 12V operation and the high/low inputs that work the opposite of how you'd think. The extra headroom makes the pedal a little harder to saturate and 'High' and 'Low' don't refer to impedance; high is line level and low is for instrument-level input, which keeps things super clean and quiet. The 'Dynamic' setting loses the threshold and ducking level controls, but I don't miss them at all.
Jams sound great. I'm just curious about what was on the guitar channel/song master channel in the daw? (I'm assuming the drums are sampled/triggered based on the consistency - or else there's a great dialled in drum sound too.)
you’re right, the first jam is totally dope! you are the saviour of the internet… record time has become my main input for guitar music. thanks a lot, really!! 🙏😊👌🏼
The Red Fuzz has a great drive to it! Great crunch. Solid jam. I’m an old metal head who’s into writing/playing 70’s metal/hard rock (but has a soft spot for diving 80 hair metal) and THIS was my far favorite of the review. 🤘
"I know you might not care, but I don't care about what you care, I care about what I care and I care about this footswitch" needs to be a T-shirt, what an instant classic quote!
I reviewed a couple of LunaStones for Guitar mag a few years ago. They were quite nice. Maybe with less Scandi minimalism and more pictures of spacemen/seamonsters/whatever they would have been great.
i still cant stop playing my pg14. The tone and mid sweep/boost are crazy quality in any position, just so usably versatile. No one-song bird. The drive/push knobs from 0-6 are awesomely transparrent. Just a fabulous overdrive sound. Lots of fun, heavier tones when turned higher. Almost gated rat/stack w hints of fuzz sputter/squeal.
Your first jam was definitely your “best jam ever,” even though, your second jam was certainly a measurable improvement. By the way, with all that said, and for what it’s worth, my favorite pedal was the Red Fuzz. I think I need some fuzz in my life. Bad.
You’ve talked smack about your playing lately Josh but I’ve got to tell you that the od/clean boost+delay zone in which you live comfortably really speaks to me - I like to hang out there myself - also fuzz is yes. Keep on Pls 👍🏼

I like the large LED.
The drums sound fantastic on this episode. They’re so cleanly played, and that ride symbol almost sounds colorful
Nick consistently pulls some of the best drum sounds you'd ever wish to hear.
I've often wondered what ride he was using...I still want to know cuz it does sound good.

The jam using the Blue Drive sort of reminded me of the middle instrumental parts of Superet’s “Bang My Drum”. Great work today Josh!

Great one team JHS. The riff at 5 mins 57 seconds of this video was out of this world

But yes Josh... you should come to Denmark. You'd love it here. (I'm not even Danish but when I got here I never left). I can even lend you a nice old retro MTB while you are here.
A few of the pedals shown here I can't even buy direct from LunaStone's Danish webshop.
Dynamic delay is one of my favorite things, so it's nice to see a different take on TC's (also Danish) 2290, and too bad TC didn't do a dynamic delay for their smorgasbord series (love the quiet switching, true bypass and jacks-to-top format) They did stick a version in their Flashback pedals, so there's that, but I prefer the TC Nova Repeater which is super streamlined, easy-to-use and the quality is high enough, it doesn't sound at all 'digital' plus it gives you access to some mild-to-moderate modulation a la the EHX Deluxe Memory Man. It has a couple of quirks that I regard as features; 12V operation and the high/low inputs that work the opposite of how you'd think. The extra headroom makes the pedal a little harder to saturate and 'High' and 'Low' don't refer to impedance; high is line level and low is for instrument-level input, which keeps things super clean and quiet. The 'Dynamic' setting loses the threshold and ducking level controls, but I don't miss them at all.
The pedals in this room even make the drums sound better
Jams sound great. I'm just curious about what was on the guitar channel/song master channel in the daw? (I'm assuming the drums are sampled/triggered based on the consistency - or else there's a great dialled in drum sound too.)
One of my favorite thing about these episodes is the recurring graphics jokes. “He has the box!” “Words is good.” Etc. Gets me every time.
@ 16:50 it's like you are stuck inside of a box, just waiting for someone to push the button to let you out.
Your improvs keep getting better and better.
Great video! Distortion 1 was my favorite out of the box.
Sounds amazing! I'll have to check them out.
Josh trying to pass as an average American when it comes to geography xD
😆
“Some days are good and most days are bad” is the title of my “radiohead blues”-style bands next single.
you’re right, the first jam is totally dope! you are the saviour of the internet… record time has become my main input for guitar music. thanks a lot, really!! 🙏😊👌🏼
Guys, the capital of Denmark is Copenhagen, which is on an island (Zeeland). But most of Denmark is on mainland Europe.
The Red Fuzz has a great drive to it! Great crunch. Solid jam. I’m an old metal head who’s into writing/playing 70’s metal/hard rock (but has a soft spot for diving 80 hair metal) and THIS was my far favorite of the review. 🤘
Excellent playing and demos!
It’s nice having nick back
He’s the secret sauce
The duck(edit)ing was on point.
Have a great weekend everyone and stay safe.
Thanks for fixing that snare sound. SO MUCH BETTER.
Starlight Highway sure was purty. Made me think of that Danish tropical paradise you mentioned.
ALL THE JAMS in this vid are SPECTACULAR!!!
I liked like to hear more of the brown overdrive #1. Nice jams!
Wickedly intelligent you are. Your sense of humor is off the charts.
"I know you might not care, but I don't care about what you care, I care about what I care and I care about this footswitch" needs to be a T-shirt, what an instant classic quote!
Josh! I really like your guitar playing on this video. It was excellent.
I reviewed a couple of LunaStones for Guitar mag a few years ago. They were quite nice. Maybe with less Scandi minimalism and more pictures of spacemen/seamonsters/whatever they would have been great.
i still cant stop playing my pg14. The tone and mid sweep/boost are crazy quality in any position, just so usably versatile. No one-song bird. The drive/push knobs from 0-6 are awesomely transparrent. Just a fabulous overdrive sound. Lots of fun, heavier tones when turned higher. Almost gated rat/stack w hints of fuzz sputter/squeal.
I am also interested in those endcaps
Your first jam was definitely your “best jam ever,” even though, your second jam was certainly a measurable improvement.
By the way, with all that said, and for what it’s worth, my favorite pedal was the Red Fuzz. I think I need some fuzz in my life. Bad.
I literally just listened to Sledge Hammer this morning. Am I dreaming?
The Matrix has you Neo.....
I’ve never had a dream that included Sledge Hammer, but now that you’re awake, you can listen to it again.
Josh, the design on that pedal looks like something out of a 1970s Sci-Fi movie.
You’ve talked smack about your playing lately Josh but I’ve got to tell you that the od/clean boost+delay zone in which you live comfortably really speaks to me - I like to hang out there myself - also fuzz is yes.
Keep on
Pls 👍🏼
Very good young man, cool pedals and jams.
That Blue Drive jam was awesome
Josh, you brought your A game on guitar. The slide was awesome. Well done.
really digging the bass sound
A bandmate has the 3 Stage Rocket. It's a beast.
Really workin the wigglestick. Also, I was waiting for that shot at Rhett at the end there.
The jams this episode were from another world!!
The Acc Citrus jam was epic. Always enjoy the cool jams but that was great
That first one was a good jam, very interesting timing. I was wondering if you’ll put out a record of your RUclips jams.
Do the drums always sound this good? Because they sound really good here.
We need the next four legendary fuzz pedals.
