In Depth Look at the NEW JHS 3 Series

In this week's episode, I’m debuting the suckiest JHS pedals yet. They look boring, there's not enough knobs, why aren't there top mounted jacks, probably needs more features, font is lame, can't run on 18V, where's the presets? Yea yea, we get it, now let's go have some fun with the new JHS 3 Series.

I don’t think Josh gets enough credit for how good of a musician he is

[JakeCuster]

Josh: *witnesses an eagle get struck by lightning and a fish escape death twice*

Josh immediately after that: “There’s gotta be a way to sell quality pedals under $100”

[jburdsinfuse]

Step 1: order pedals
Step 2: order salmon, hawk, eagle, mountain, lightening, rocking chair, & cabin decals.

[Wismr]

Any non-snob guitarist would be More than pleased with one of these under the christmas tree. Thank you for the Beatles-style tune, cheers.

[guitarsimon]

Pedals aside, these are some of the sickest jams you’ve done!

[cheranguista]

Cannot wait for get the compressor in Reverb in $99 + $ 175 shipping

[nova_kane]

I love the minimalist design, they're begging to be customised with markers/paint/stickers. Perfect for younger players or people who like to customise. Very cool.

[leshamas_]

I wish every pedal maker could do such videos, playing their pedals themselves and showing that they're really excited to play their own products with the band in the garage. That is so inspiring!

[ArtBabbitt]

It'd be cool if you could buy the whole set as a discounted package.

[cubix_]

i wanna see the outtakes of the intro, that would be funny i think

[vladvartosu]

Josh is a very good guitar player. He seems so relaxed about everything, and it's reflected in his playing, it's something I look up to as a guitarist. Best pedal show ever!

[noahorlowski]

I can't believe every single pedal in this line is one I want. Like I could have a board with just these on it and I'd be pretty content

[nicholaspoppin]

Pedal companies: Hey guys here’s the version 3.2 of our popular pedal now with new updated graphics and leds with an all new $15 up charge

Josh: Hey guys heres 7 new pedals for $99 that all sound great! Like them or hate them I don’t care

This is a master class in how to introduce a new product line. Puppy in the mix at 24:00 is just ... awww, man. Well done!

[thiagohermes]

Hey Josh, I hope you read this:

This line of pedals is amazing, I loved the sound of every and each one of them. But I would also like to say that if you ever launch an album with these songs you play in your demos I would buy it for me and for my friends cuz they are just great. And I've been following your channel for years and must say that you've improved a lot in your guitar playing, well done man!

I wish you the very best, cheers from Brazil! o/

First, I have been waiting for an affordable line of pedals so I could buy a couple to support you guys, since I've enjoyed your videos for so long. Awesome. Second: man your "jams" are fantastic. I could dig full albums of each of those genres. Well done.
