      Hey dipshits, why don't you release your old pedals again? Build them in China, bring down the price. People are leaving you behind. Same with your amps: Make a low watt, Chinese made, version of the JTM 45. You're going to get left behind if you don't get your shit together. Already traded my old Marshalls for new Orange, Victory, and Blackstar amps.

Theres plenty of pedal makers that just do demo videos and theyre good for marketing but I really believe jhs has their unique approach for more or less to grow stewardship of their craft. For example while their videos have given me a really positive view of their company and I would love to buy their products I just dont have the money and have purchased cheaper alternatives from pedals I've learned about in his videos. Someday they will certainly make a customer out of me but in the meantime they sure have done a good job uplifting the industry

    I worked for marshall in 1991 so if you have an original Blues Breaker, Shredmaster, or Drive Master it stands a 33% chance of having my test signature on the PCB.
    So I have one of the first ever Shredmasters & it remains one of my favourite ever distortion pedals to this day.

    I've been digging going through the catalog of JHS Shows so much, and this episode was just phenomenal. The history & insights are always brilliant but the jams Josh and the boys lay down are priceless-they give context to what the pedals in the spotlight sound like in a real world musical situation AND they just kick ass. That last riff & groove could absolutely be expanded into a full song with melody, lyrics, etc. It's so refreshing to hear original musical bits instead of 12 bar clichés. Keep doing work JHS...the entire team is on fire.

    I have one of those Marshall Bluesbreaker pedals and it is simply amazing! I got it at a garage sale back in the day for like $20. Just like I got one of the original long dash DS-1’s with the clear switch and a very very low serial number that dates it to 1978 at a garage sale in the mid 80’s for $20. It sounds amazing and nothing like a regular DS-1. Both pedals are amazing!

  • @rars0n
    @rars0n 4 года назад +7

    In a way, I find these "in the band context" comparisons to be a lot more useful. I find myself loving specific pedal sounds when demoed only to not care for them in certain contexts. You have the guitar and amp which make a difference, but also it can be hard to understand how a sound will actually sound in the mix of the rest of the instruments when you're only listening to the guitar. It's fun to listen to guitar only and hear all the details, but I think putting it in a mix is more useful. Of course, it's also a lot more work to record, which is probably why we don't see this often with pedal demos.
    So thanks. I like these. Keep it up!

    that Snouse though.....ridiculously similar to the original Bluesbreaker, then the presence knob to add a little brilliance. Thank you for this video. I convinced myself I need the Analogman King of Tone because, well no explanation needed, it's the King of Tone pun intended. But this video provided me with so many other good alternatives and helped me discover the Snouse. I actually already have a Morning Glory V4 and thought I needed the King of Tone because it's such a unicorn pedal, no where near the unicorn level of the original Klon, but everyone still wants one. Idk what magic potion they're drinking at Snouse but the did such a good job in replicating the tone from the original Marshall Black Box Bluesbreaker, and the added brilliance feature really gives it the Marshall feel. I also respect you Josh, for not trying to only market JHS pedals and really pay your respects to other pedal companies, I take my hat off to you for that. Your unbiased view on effects and tone is what keeps me watching your vlogs and actually makes me want to buy more JHS pedals. Good job, keep doing what you're doing man!

      JHS makes solid stuff. King of Tone is however a really special circuit. It’s my most important pedal along with my Maxon PH-350 Phaser. Everybody should have at least one JHS pedal though....mine is the Pulp n Peel. Paired with some of the wonderful modern delays that Strymon etc are doing, anything you are missing in the “it almost sounds like tape” realm is elevated from that orange squeezer circuit into virtually sounding like tape. It’s very musical. I prefer it to the Cali even.

    I think the Charlie Brown sounded very close. By giving it more bass less treble and slightly less mids it would be closer imo.

    • @mattgilbert7347
      @mattgilbert7347 5 лет назад +6

      I'm using the Charlie Brown more often than the MG these days, it really does the low-gain thing better than most other high-gain JTM "distortion" pedals. It likes my modern-style (kinda bright) Duncan-Designed humbuggies as well. For high-gain JTM/Plexi stuff I'm using either a Jetter Gain Stage Black (AC/DC in box, no BS) or Greer Amps Little Samson.

    • @misterruth9404
      @misterruth9404 4 года назад

      Just got a CB. Great tone, really. I think you get better tone using the Charlie Brown and another mild overdrive (amp or pedal) than by using a pedal with more gain.

    Great video. The pedals do sound somewhat like the amp but with their own character. You make some of the best videos on here because you always give attention to other makers and - it has to be said - you're a complete gearhead and gear geek, which is a good thing.

    • @GuitarLessonsNYC1
      @GuitarLessonsNYC1 5 лет назад +3

      If you’re talking about Clapton, there is no picture of him using a treble booster. He says he never used one. The engineer says he never used one. It’s a myth he used one. The Beano record sound is a Les Paul with PAF’s into a dimed Blues Breaker amp. It’s inaccurately documented that he used a range master or fuzz at different points. Straight to amp.

    Have you ever broken down Hendrix’s Marshall amp?I know PRS took one head and dialed in a new creation and are asking over 4 grand. I think Marshall has tried to reissue a hand wired Marshall , chasing Jimi’s live tone. What is out there today that can recreate his electric tone that won’t break the bank?

    One very popular, almost iconic Danish guitar player was a Marshall user for decades. Sometimes you saw him playing through a half stack, sometimes a Blues Breaker combo. He settled down in America and only came to Denmark to play gigs, playing through whatever was available. One day he was faced with a Behringer amp - one of the better ones - and he was shocked how good sounds he could get out of it.
