    Hopefully JHS sees how important this video was for the pedal. Even after hearing JHS I knew these tones were in there somewhere.
    Seeing how the boost pedal helped, I can’t help but wonder what could’ve been if one of the knobs had been swapped for a “push” ala pg14. Although tbh I’d probably want to shape that boost element myself anyway 😅

    Great demo.
    JHS are very good at marketing their products.
    In terms of sound, the pedal offers nothing new.
    JHS took a Metalzone tone stack, widened the Q of the frequency control, and applied it to a Revv G-series styled distortion circuit.
    Revv G-series have VERY effective tone stacks on their own. They’re also less pricey.
    If I was looking for a solid metal distortion pedal that’s intuitive and sounds great out of the box, I would go for the Revv. Your mileage may vary.

    • @lysdexiar31
      @lysdexiar31 6 днів тому +2

      its not a metal zone tone stack, the metal zone uses a gyrator EQ on the lows and mids, with a shelf on the highs. this one is just bandaxall. it's using the same idea, but far from the same tone stack.

    • @yunamadsimackomen881
      @yunamadsimackomen881 6 днів тому

      @@lysdexiar31 I’m not strong on the terminology, but the Metalzone mids and lows behave in a very similar fashion to the Hard Drive. You do have a point, that something is different about the highs between the two pedals, plus the Q of the mid-frequency is wider; however, I would still argue that JHS simply improved upon an idea they took from Boss. Like I stated above, the pedal does not introduce anything particularly innovative that the market hasn’t already seen; there are cheaper options (Revv, Metalzone, Fullbore) with nearly the same capabilities.

  • @jongangloff8076

    I was initially impressed by Josh's metal mastery; and then I watched Fluff's video.
    It started to grow on me and sounded even better. But, I knew that wasn't metal enough...
    Until a fuckin' professional made this video.
    IT SOUNDS SO GNARLY THAT EVEN SATAN HIMSELF HAS SHAT HIS PANTSES!
