Interesting, what pedal is the JHS bit ripped off from? Obviously moved on from his madbean 'collaboration' days

That could be very useable.

Very similar setup to the old SD-2 from Boss which is an absolutely brilliant OD pedal

From the title I thought this was going to be another rant about couriers for a minute

SAME! Thought it was a joke.

Gotta say though, Boss/Roland are killing it at the moment....the last 3-4 years have been really good for them.

One thing is for sure, that JHS chap, whatever he has done with mods/circuits in the past, is extremely lucky to be in this position. Not only is he working with the biggest effects pedal company ever, he will be getting huge amounts of advertising along with it.

No doubt be retiring in 20 years. I'm in the wrong industry hahahahah.

Could be a great solution for small boards, lot's of options with the way it operated.  Pity it is JHS!

I've been considering an all Boss board, with a pedaltrain Nano+, this makes it viable with gain only using one of the 5 spaces.

The only thing that puts me off is the fact it is JHS!  But at least the switch is good.....

Any idea of price?

It looks very tempting indeeeeeedddd

Still, who doesn't need a pedal you can turn to BJ mode ?  

Just be interesting to see the price, I'll put a finger in the air at £180 based on, well, not very much...

I did a quick Google and among the unrelated stories (Uber boss and Angry Driver etc) was a pre-order price from B&H in the USA, of $199.  So probably 200 quid.

I've just seen it at $199, so I would think it will be in that ballpark.

I personally like JHS. Of the ones I have tried and own, the Superbolt, Muffuletta and Morning Glory are absolutely superb.

Bust if you go over!

I'm gonna buy it for sure!  Looks amazing.  Kind of like part of Andy Timmons's pedalboard in one pedal.

From the link:

BOSS and JHS Pedals have come together in a historic creative collaboration between the two industry leaders

Are JHS really that big a player in the pedal industry to be referred to as the second leader after Boss??

Nope.

Looks like Boss have finally woken up to the Praise and Worship market.
