JHS Pedals: 3 Series - Budget instead of Boutique!
In his JHS Show auf YouTube, Josh Scott regularly expresses appreciation for budget stompbox series because, even if they are poorly built, they still give players easy access to inspirational sounds. With the 3 Series, JHS are now presenting their own line of budget pedals: with minimalistic design, extra rich sounds and functions, made of high-quality parts in the USA.
3 Series – Keep it simple!
Who needs funny names, graphics, or even colors anyway? The seven effects pedals of the 3 Series are all white and have in common a simple interface with three controls plus a 2-way toggle switch. With the help of these, a surprisingly wide spectrum of Chorus, Compressor, Delay, Distortion, Fuzz, Overdrive, or Reverb sounds can be dialed in.
As regards the sound design, no compromises were made: This shows in well-engineered, up-to-date features such as different gain flavors, alternative delay modes, or extra bright and bass boosts – and especially in the fact that throughout the control pots’ whole range, usable sounds of various characters can be found.
