@@jhspedals Everything is going great! Just a stubborn baby. Doesnt want to come out just yet. I may have to go home and grab the Morning Glory pedal to wake it up 😄
Hey y'all, I just want to say I really enjoy these live shows and y'all just hanging/talking/joking/jamming and appreciate the time you all take to do so...Some of us don't have the opportunity to do something like this. However, this show gives us the chance to do so and feel like we are in the room with y'all. Thanks again!
Thank you, Josh Humbuckler Scott for always ticklin’ your pups with some version of the bridge from Alive in every show. You rule and are my personal favorite star of the show. Cheers.
What you folks are referring to as the ‘randomization’ on the Beetronics Zzombie 13:16 13:32 is actually an old analog synthesizer circuit called “sample and hold.” en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sample_and_hold Frank Zappa used a sample and hold pedal back in the ‘70s.
JHS pedals just used a Chase Bliss pedal to sell every existing unit of a Cusack Music pedal. How fucking beautiful was that??? You're fucking legends! :D Love you guys!
FYI, Selenium rectifiers had a shorter lifespan than desired. During catastrophic failure they produced significant quantities of malodorous and highly toxic fumes. When a selenium rectifier is overheated it gives off selenium dioxide gas, which is toxic, and does smell bad. I doubt this will be an issue at the operating voltages of that pedal. If you have one in any vintage amp, etc. I would suggest replacing it with silicon rectification.
That jam with the Zzzombee on bass was unreal. So wonderfully weird and unlike anything I ever remember hearing you all play. How nice to have a pedal that lets you play to it and go places you otherwise may not. Congrats, Beetronics. Amazing piece of gear.
Would be cool if JHS covered pedalboard interfaces, like Temple Audio modules and Warwick Rockboard Mod1 v2. Also, the roles of buffers at the end and beginning of effects chains would be useful.
I put the Fixer on my board last night, near the middle of the chain of 12 pedals. Tuner is now out of the chain, and this board has never sounded better. I've tried 3 different brands of buffers before this, spending more money each time, and Browne's is the best sounding, and most functional by far. Thanks JHS and Browne for continuing to push the evolution of all things stompable.
OMG, went on to Dead Air's web site. Check out the Generator 7 pedal. It's insane! Feral + sounded awesome. nice find. Also the jams again were great! Really help showcase the uniqueness of the pedals.
This was an especially subtle day. During the pandemic run, it felt like (hard to believe) we watched Jorma get even better week after week. It seems like Josh is getting ever more expressive, and Nick definitely has his drum light under a video production bushel. I don’t really hear bass frequencies, sorry Addison, I’m sure yer gud enuf.
Another top show JHS Boyz! Always love watching you guys and taking a few hours out of what is usually a hectic and crazy lifestyle and zoning out in the JHS Universe listening to pedals and the humour of the JHS crew, it sorts my head out for a little while at least thankfully. Like the Dead Air Feral Plus and cheaper price Thani thought it would be of $149
I hit thumbs up the moment Nick was showing off his Spider-man comic. My birthday last month I also treated myself to a Batman comic by my favorite artists and writer duo, Neal and O'Neill. HAPPY BIRTHDAY NICK!
Happy belated birthday, Nick. You've accomplished quite a bit for somebody your age. You already have kids and a job you enjoy so I don't think you need any advice. Just enjoy your 30's!!! They're about as good as it gets - you've gained some wisdom and maturity and aren't a "kid" anymore but also your knees don't hurt yet.
Happy birthday Nick!! You’re a great friend to Josh and the band. Keep on making great music and zingers! Enjoy everyday having kids speeds up stuff hahaha. Party in Garth!
If you care about what microphone to use for your voice or for your drums or for your amps, I it should be about the same with your guitar pups. Those are literally the microphones for your guitar strings. A humbuggy will push an amp to overdrive easier than a single coil would...etcetera
Great first jam. Didn't see why I would ever buy this Beetronics pedal, but Josh's playing on this was amazing. Sounds a bit like the Earthquaker Spatial Delivery (which I have), but I love the enhanced bass. Buy the Feral?, or EQ my JHS PackRat, an awesome pedal. Josh' playing is "in the zone". Note to pedal reviewers: play music in your YT's. Don't "dial knobs and pick". I appreciate Nick's minimal drum playing, but please buy him more drums.
Josh.. I love the old boss tuner on the pedalboard lol ..I still have my old 1990s Korg tuner ..i still use it..and ive never changed the batteries since i got it in the 90s haha still works...crazy !
living on the other side of the ocean, I can say that when I got to see this the selenium was wiped off the face of the internet already. that's sad, would have looked so nice next to my stromer super fuzz that's about to arrive this week :D
My fav person on the show is all of you. When even just one of you is missing, it’s not the same. It’s like when I order my club sub at Jersey Mike’s and forget to add banana peppers or spicy mustard. EDIT: I do like the Nick and Addison episodes alot.
You complicated your self with the zombie… I knew this from the start (that it would be to much… ) so I dissected it… the first time I unboxed it I had already looked up5 videos on it …. And I started it with it on clean…. Explored everything on clean….. next just overdrive … tried everything out that way … than fuzzzzzzz … dude … there’s so much to unlock … then after I went through the 5 presets….
My favorite p'ups are a prototype set in my thinline tele made by a now defunct builder. They are wound on pistachio wood bobbins, have Alnico 3 magnets, aircraft grade copper wire, and the bridge has a zinc plated baseplate. My second favorite are a hot strat set with Alnico 2 on the upper three strings and Alnico 5 on the little tiny strings. They have Ash wood covers. I overthink my pickups because I'm a fun person.
I’m glad those on the screen seem to be as derisive of the term “pups” as I am. I see someone on social media start talkin’ bout pups, I usually stop reading.
Nick, I'ma throw some 30s knowledge at ya: I've had just as many fun and rewarding experiences so far in my 30s as I did in my 20s, so your 30s are absolutely what you make of them. (I'm 36) That said, take care of yourself as much as possible cuz this is also the time when "wtf why is my neck/back/knee hurting today I didn't DO anything to it, this is bullshit" comes around. The best way to keep that at bay is to make sure to do your best to not, oh, I dunno, slip a disc while helping a friend move a mattress up the stairs or something, not that *I've* done that exact thing, oh no, never, definitely wasn't laid up for 3 days or anything lmao Seriously though your 30s are gonna be just as good as your 20s, or even better, if you let them be and take care of yourself. :)
Oh and if you don't have any, treat yourself to some really nice bath towels and things of that nature Like, this sounds dumb, but the really small quality of life improvement luxuries like that will make you happier than you expected :)
Pedal of the vid for me: OCTOBER AUDIO ROBOTIC CELEBRITY BUST. Also obsessed with that animatronic Elvis bust - preferably with a ruined pompadour and shredded pleather jacket. Or, better yet, no face skin or hair at all! Plus, abused smol comboh and 70s derived circuit - that's COMMIE LSD's wheelhouse, baby.
