In den 1990er Jahren machte ein Effektpedal-Hersteller aus England auf sich aufmerksam - mit Ideen abseits des Mainstreams und Sounds, die noch heute als 'legendär' bezeichnet werden. Innerhalb kürzester Zeit fanden sich die Pedale in den Setups von The Edge (U2), Jimmy Page, Radiohead, Kevin Sheilds (My Bloody Valentine), Jeff Tweedy (Wilco), Gary Moore und vielen anderen und die Preise auf dem Gebrauchtmarkt steigen heute teilweise über 800 $. Mit dem Cheese Ball bietet JHS Pedals jetzt eine akkurate Nachbildung der legendären Lovetone Big Cheese Schaltung und das Pedal hält was der Name verspricht! Neben den klassischen Reglern für Volume, Gain und Tone kommt das Effektpedal mit einem 4-Wege Mode-Schalter, der zwischen verschiedenen Tone- und Gain-Settings wählt. In der 'Off' Position wird der Tone-Regler deaktiviert und das Pedal erzeugt einen hellen, bissigen Fuzz / Distortion Sound. In der '1' Position liefert der Cheese Ball einen Sound mit Mid-Scoop, der an satte Big Muff Verzerrung erinnert. Position '2' bietet einen Mid-Boost der sich durch jeden Mix schneidet und Position '3' kommt mit einem aggressiven Gated Fuzz Sound, der spuckt, beißt und schreit!

Long ago in a mysterious time that we call the 1990's, a new pedal company was created in England. Its ideas were off the beaten path, and its sounds were otherworldly. Despite existing only a few short years, these creations became the things of legend and one product in particular cast the biggest shadow. With such artists as The Edge (U2), Jimmy Page, Radiohead, Kevin Sheilds (My Bloody Valentine), Jeff Tweedy (Wilco), Gary Moore, and many others using the out-of-production units, their Used market prices have begun to rise more and more, sometimes into the $800 range. The Cheese Ball is JHS Pedals faithful and extremely accurate recreation of the original circuit, it is a tribute to one of the most fascinating brands and circuits of all time! The Cheese Ball has your standard Volume, Gain, and Tone knobs found on most distortion fuzz boxes, but comes with an extra mode selector knob that gives you four different overall tone and gain selections. In the 'off' position, the Tone knob is disengaged, giving you a bright and trashy fuzz / distortion sound. In the '1' position you have a mid-scooped sound that will give you a Big Muff style buzz for a rounded sound reminiscent of fine mozzarella that sits just right on your pizza but doesn’t get in the way. The '2' position is a mid-boost sound that will cut through a mix like a hot knife through Velveeta. Finally, the '3' position gives you a biting, gated fuzz tone that, when cranked, spits, spats, and bites like gorgonzola naturale.

Das JHS Pedals Supreme ist ein exakter Nachbau von einem der beliebtesten Vintage Effekte aus Japan: Dem Shin-Ei Super-Fuzz. Das Supreme basiert auf einem extrem seltenen Black/Gray-Modell. Obwohl die ersten Versionen des Originals klanglich sehr nah beieinander liegen bietet die Version von 1972 eine gewisse Magie, die aus der Menge hervorsticht. Man denkt an ein Octavia Fuzz, "dass mit dem falschen Fuß aufgestanden ist" - ein lautes, schreiendes, lebhaftes Octave Fuzz mit allen Reglern auf Maximum. Die Regelmöglichkeiten sind mit Volume und Expand denkbar einfach. Volume kontrolliert das Output Level, Expand regelt den Grad an Verzerrung - je weiter man den Regler aufdreht, desto mehr Fuzz erhält man. An der Seite des Pedals sind zwei zusätzliche Schalter angebracht. Der Tone Schalter aktiviert einen Cut im Mitten-Bereich, der einen klassischen Scooped Mid EQ Sound erzeugt und dadurch die Attack im Signal abflacht. Der schaltbare 'JHS Mode' bietet eine stärkere Betonung des Octave Up Effekts mit einer dichteren Mid-Range und mehr Output Volume. Wer die klassischen Octave Fuzz Sounds von Pete Townsend, Black Keys, White Stripes, Beastie Boys und Mudhoney sucht wird das JHS Pedals Supreme lieben!

The JHS Pedals Supreme is an exact replica of one of the most sought after vintage effects from Japan: the Shin-Ei Super-Fuzz. The Supreme is based on an extremely rare black and grey model. Although every early version of the original pedal sounds strikingly similar, the 1972 unit has a certain magic that makes it stand out above the others. Imagine an Octavia Fuzz that woke up on the wrong side of the bed, and that's what you're plugging into here: a loud, screaming, full and vibrant octave fuzz that is always at 11. The controls are Volume and Expand. Volume makes the effect louder as you turn it and Expand increases the amount of fuzz. On the side you will see two buttons. The 'Tone' button engages a mid cut that flattens out the Supreme's attack and makes it more submissive. Think of this as a preset scooped mid EQ control. The 'Mode' button activates our very own 'JHS Mode' setting. You will hear a much more pronounced octave up effect, thicker mid-range, and more available volume/boost. If you want to replicate the classic octave fuzz sounds of Pete Townsend, Black Keys, White Stripes, Beastie Boys, and Mudhoney, this is it.

Das JHS Artificial Blonde Madison Cunningham Signature Pedal ist im Grunde eine unkomplizierte Annäherung an Madisons Signature-Sound: ein immer eingeschalteter, leicht dreidimensionaler Vibrato-Sound. Der zweite Fußschalter schaltet zwischen den beiden Speed/Depth Preset-Sektionen um. Dies ist ein echtes Pitch-Vibrato-Modulationspedal mit zwei leicht zugänglichen Modi für den Live-Einsatz. Dieses flexible und charakteristische Vibrato Pedal bietet neben dem globalen Volume Regler einen aktiven Tilt-EQ. Durch Drehen nach links werden die Tiefen angehoben und die Höhen abgesenkt, während durch Drehen nach rechts die Höhen angehoben und die Tiefen abgesenkt werden. Mit dem linken Fußschalter kann der Effekt eingeschaltet werden und mit dem rechten schaltet man das Preset A oder B. Jedes Preset hat die gleiche Speed/Depth Range und ermöglicht zwei verschiedene schaltbare Einstellungen.

The JHS Artificial Blonde Madison Cunningham Signature Pedal is basically a simple approach to Madison's signature sound: an always-on, slightly three-dimensional vibrato sound. The secondary footswitch switches between the two speed/depth preset sections. It is a true pitch vibrato modulation pedal with two easy to access modes for live use. This flexible and distinctive vibrato pedal features an active tilt EQ in addition to the global volume control. Turning it to the left boosts the lows and cuts the highs, while turning it to the right boosts the highs and cuts the lows. The left footswitch turns the effect on and the right one switches preset A or B. Each preset has the same speed/depth range and allows two different switchable settings.

Artificial Blonde

In 1963 Silvertone* introduced the 60 Watt Model 1484 guitar amplifier.  Originally a student model amplifier, the 1484 has since become legendary, hard to find, and coveted by some of the biggest names in music.  From the time of its debut in the Sears Catalog until its discontinuation only four years later in 1967, the model 1484 "Twin Twelve" amplifier is considered a Van Gogh of sorts as it developed a great appreciation and worth years after being discontinued.  Artists such as Beck, Death Cab For Cutie, The White Stripes/Jack White, and more recently Vampire Weekend and Coldplay have brought this rare amp to the forefront of popular music.  The JHS Pedals  "Twin Twelve" channel drive is the first ever all analog stomp box that replicates the classic preamp/overdrive tones only found in the Silvertone 1484 "Twin Twelve" amplifier.
