I'm always amazed by the comedy chemistry between Paul and Josh and I still hope for a JHS show with them. It's also funny how the FRM is a rather big guitar and in Josh's hands it looks like a toy :)

@SlowToe Год назад

My life is better because of JHS and Josh in particular. I adore playing guitar but I find myself drawn to "What else can it do?". The show has educated me on pedals and what's out there. I buy his pedals mostly for the sound but also to support his crusade on education and entertainment. Have a great weekend guys.

@jhspedals Год назад

This is awesome, thanks so much!

@chrisegg7936 Год назад

I bought the pg-14 for exactly three reasons: I love Paul Gilbert, it looks cool, and the design seemed different so I didn't feel like I was buying "another" overdrive, even though I didn't really need it. Two years later and it's my #1 ride or die gain stage. I can get it to sound like anything and it works great with all my amps and all my guitars. Hope it gets some love from this video because it's incredible!

@honkytonkinson9787 Год назад

I bought one of these the week after watching this video and it has quickly become my favourite dirt pedal. I leave it on the “fuzz smashing the front of a stack” setting and it is just endlessly inspiring. I reckon I’ve played more in the last week or so than in the whole previous month! Fantastic pedal - it even looks amazing. Great unboxing “experience” too: love JHS attention to detail.

@fiveeyes2802 Год назад

After watching this I put the pedal on my Reverb wish list! Sounds excellent, Josh and co! ❤

@HogbackHank Год назад

I have this pedal and I would have never figured it out without this video. When you crank the push knob up a lot of times you get a really weird thudding noise. Having Josh show where the knobs go and how it's supposed to work was incredibly helpful.

@jamesmyers2852 Год назад

The hearing loss issue. There is a theory that EVH’s tone changed over the hears due to him adjusting to his damaged ears. In other words those w healthy ears could hear the change but to him it sounded the same. And there is RU-vid footage somewhere of Motörhead’s producer during Lemmy’s later years where the producer talks about this tug of war w Lemmy about his bass tone that basically came down to Lemmy wanting settings to suit what the producer guessed was Lem’s hearing loss (although to be fair even during his prime years the tone of a strummed Rick plugged into a Marshall was probably something only Motörhead fans could enjoy)

@emmarossignol4445 Год назад

I know I'm just a lowly Motorhead fan, but are you telling me a strummed Rickenbacker through a Marshall doesn't sound glorious to you?

@ileutur6863 Год назад

There's also this theory thay Leo Fender made the musicman Stingray bass so bright because of his hearing loss

This pedal has been on my wish list since that first video. Man, I want one. It sounds so versatile and you’re not gonna find it on a modeler. Oh, and I gotta compliment the bass playing on the Shoegaze track. The tone and the lines were so good!

Just added an Angry Driver to my PG-14 and next week I add a Mojomojo PG version to the stew. I felt I’d arrived at ‘making music’ when I got my PG-14 and it taught me stuff I didn’t know I wanted. Life is stupendous with my PG-14. Ya done good, josh.

@chaddraizin6616 Год назад

I was walking to the taco shop around the corner a couple years ago and I noticed this tall stylish guy in front of his house who looked really familiar. "Hey! Is your name Paul?" I asked. "WHAT? I HAVE TROUBLE HEARING." he said. "ARE YOU A MUSICIAN?" I asked. "YEAH THAT"S WHY I CAN"T HEAR!" he replied. And that's the story of how I learned that Paul Gilbert lives in the house behind mine.

@mjjames2442 Год назад

Unfamiliar with the 15th century Twain, but it is interesting that the JHS graphic design department has trail blazed away from the ubiquitous sycophant grunge graphic art aesthetic of previous decades with their pretty Easter candy look and good nature. Well done Josh and crew.

@garethtravis1786 Год назад

Always loved the opening clean tone on About a Girl - reason the 1st electric i bought was a 78 Mustang

@musicmann1967 Год назад

When I got this pedal I didn't read the instructions, I just started turning knobs, and I'm glad I did it that way. I kinda got it for a Paul Gilbert sound, because I like that pushed mids, almost cocked wah drive sound. If I read the instructions and knew how to get that sound right away I might not have stumbled onto those other sounds the pedal has till much later. Very cool box.

@bigmikeyz0071 Год назад

I absolutely love my pj14 because it’s an animal. When I run stacked overdrives the pg14 is always in the chain because it’s so versatile. I’ve had it since it was first released and it’s a keeper. I love that it does so many sounds from overdrive, fuzz, a dimed Marshall, a broken amp, and so much more. Not to mention it’s pink and teal with a sneaker on it.

@traceyoungs1637 Год назад

You’re right, I’m a horrible person, because I’ve had this pedal for almost 2 years and I judged it harshly. Mostly because of guilt for my own pedal knowledge inadequacy. I was going to sell this pedal like an ugly duckling that nobody loves! (Sniffle sniffle) But now thanks to this video, I will keep it and love it and nurture it with a pedalboard all it’s own! Thank you Reverend Josh for making me a better person! The End.

@WCGaming18228 Год назад

Not that anyone cares, but I got this pedal and I have to say it's pretty incredible. It's a powerful and versatile mid-boost into a vintage supro/marshall style amp-in-a-box that sounds truly amazing. It has a growl and sizzle that I absolutely love and it works with lots of different amps. I've been able to dial it in nicely on my marshall origin 50, my mesa rectover (clean channel) and my little supro 64 reverb. Definitely a keeper and Josh's explanation was key to understanding what this pedal is capable of. Wish he'd done it sooner....🙂

@JPMongeS Год назад

Honestly I would buy this pedal just for how cool it looks, love the colors. I don't care if I already have one that gives me a similar sound.

@Labaris Год назад

So many guitar players and other famous musicians have hearing loss and tinnitus. That's why loud might be "more good" sometimes but it's dangerous at the same time. Great pedal!

@mostlyanchors168 Год назад

Haha! You got me! No matter how hard I try, I judge books by their covers. I think it’s in our nature as humans. Ultimately, I bought 3 of your pedals because of your videos. You demonstrate some key facts that impress me: 1. You know what you’re doing. 2. You LOVE what you’re doing. 3. It’s easier to trust your opinions because of how readily you’ll talk UP your competitors. This is one of the few videos I’ve seen of yours that didn’t also have a bunch of your competitors’ pedals in the mix. 4. Your pedals sound good enough that I actually got into dirt pedals. Previously, I HATED dirt pedals. So, yeah, they’re in my rig now. What really threw me off though was how cheap your pedals are. Keep doing what you do. Hopefully people will catch on and give your pedals a shot faster than I did.

Love this video, and I remember really, really liking this pedal at NAMM 2020. I wonder if there’s any comparisons out there to a Klon-style circuit? Seems like it could probably get in the ballpark… if it can do that too I’m buying one.
