Do you know how crazy it is to go from modding pedals in a shed to collaborating with Boss. Amazing JHS just amazing

[oysterpig]

As I was watching the first jam part, my daughter leaned in and said “Whoa! Whoever is playing right now is SICK!” She’s seven and “sick” is her favorite new word. It’s fun in our house.

[neilslade]

the drummer is on FIRE here--- first time I've heard him play like this.

[poxcr]

Josh is an insanely tasteful guitarist. These short jams are always a joy to listen to!

[claussoegaard]

A few months ago I woke up with the JHS intro song stuck in my head. I could just not place it. It was driving me mad. It's a banger. I hummed it to friends and family for help. No one could place it. Today, I can finally rest.

Alternate universe has a JHS Camera Show, I really love the episode where Nick develops his first roll of medium format SFX 200.

[JD-pzll]

JHS Show is such a highlight, incredible, funny and awesome. Makes me happy when I see a new episode.

[alangreenway]

I love the parallel mode on the JB-2. It got me thinking and I set up a split signal on chain with a volume pedal on one side that allows you to mix an effect into your basic sound. Using it with an overdrive gives you a real time variable distortion for emphasising certain sections.

[BrandonSorianoMusic]

I’ve been using the Angry Driver for the last 6 months or so and I love it. I’m putting together a nano+ board right now and having so many options in a single pedal is a huge space saver on a small board!

[Mini]

I was just searching for a demo video of yours for this the other day, glad it’s finally here! Also picked up a 3 series Chorus this week, what an excellent pedal.

[Aidan.w]

Thought you did another one for a second there XD Always been interested in this pedal though, the angry charlie is one of those dream distortions to have, while the blue driver is a classic that I've still never tried myself. Plus its about half the price of getting both separately.

[unfinishedBridges]

The JB-2 is such an amazing pedal and the Red Remote pushes it to even greater heights. Never getting rid of mine.

[RichieCastellano]

I have an SD2! That turns a fender amp into a 3 channel rig. I always wondered why it wasn’t more popular.

[Pancake]

I bought this pedal about a year ago on reverb for $120, and somehow it was still unopened. Love this pedal though, it's so versatile!

[ScottGailor]

It was so amazing to watch all the builders at the pedal party (at the bowling alley) so much respect was shown to Yoshi. I’m actually glad I dragged the whole BOSS Namm team to that party.

[TheBeriking]

The sound on “1000 punches” and “Orion’s Belt Buckle” was just fabulously unbelievable. Had to immediately rewind and listen to these again.
I have a feeling in the pit of my stomach it won’t be long before the JB-2 will be a permanent resident next to the Charlie Brown, Double Barrel, and AT+ (not to mention all the others) that are already here… I really thought I was covered on that end.
Apparently there is no such thing as “enough overdrives and distortion pedals” when you watch the JHS show.
On the other hand, you just *know* the moment I order it there will be a waza JB-2W announced…

[angusorvid]

This is definitely my next pedal. I have a JHS Andy Timmons and love the Angry Charlie circuit. I also love the old Boss Blues Driver. I tried one of these pedals at my local shop and was extremely impressed. It just checked all the right boxes. Incredible feat of engineering.

[jackodonnell]

Christmas lights have actually been wired in parallel for decades now. That’s why they get brighter as the bulbs die rather than going out after the first one. Great video and pedal

[EasyHeat]

Yoshi is such a nice guy, and has never failed to reply back and answer even the most silliest of questions I've sent him. A true legend in his field, and a lover of fine cuisine and wine apparently.
Great video Josh!
Thanks!

[calebmorales]

I saw this in an Atlanta shop in October, searched for this exact video which was clearly not out yet, bought it anyway, and now am thrilled to see this video is here to validate my impulse decision 3 months later!
