About

The JHS Show is hosted by Josh Scott, owner and creator of JHS Pedals. The show began as a way to share the stories, personalities and amazing history that make the pedal industry what it is. Josh has many years of experience recording, playing live, as well as building and designing pedals. This has resulted in a fascination with pedals, as well as a love for the history surrounding gear and its influence on popular music. Every episode Josh talks about a different topic related to guitar, guitar pedals, and the history of it all, as well as a healthy amount of playing. The JHS Show is a collaborative effort between Josh and Nick Loux who has worked with Josh since 2010. Nick and Josh co-produce while Nick handles the filming and editing duties of each episode that Josh writes in deep morning meditation on a mountain peak high above the plains of Kansas City.

Video Description

We are proud to introduce you to the Hard Drive the heaviest pedal JHS has ever released!! In this episode, Josh demonstrates the wide range of heavy tones you can get with the Hard Drive, from the angsty riffs of Rage against the machine all the way to Korn. The Hard Drive is a truly unique topology, not based on any single circuit before it, but is a mutt of several distortion pedals and heavy amps. It features a sweepable mid-range as well as bass and treble controls. This pedal has been eight years in the making and is the final, completed design project of our former lead engineer and friend, Cliff Smith, who passed away in 2021. We hope you have as much fun playing this pedal as we had making it. Find other demos here!
