JHS Pedals

Founded by Joshua Heath Scott (hence JHS!) in Kansas City, Missouri, JHS pedals first became known for their drive effects. More recently they have released the 3 Series of affordable effects pedals - proving you don’t have to spend big money to get boutique quality.

The Colour Box represented a real shift for JHS. This innovative unit attempted to replicate the fabled Neve style preamp in a stompbox pedal format. This was huge for many reasons. First and foremost as a way of replicating the early fuzzed-out ‘straight into the desk’ sounds of Beatles and Led Zeppelin records, but also more generally is a studio-grade preamp on stage. This is perfect as a DI for acoustic guitar, bass and keys. It also works well as an all-in-one boost, EQ and drive for an electric guitar into an amp.
