First Look at the NEW JHS 3 Series Pedals!

on today's episode we are dropping three brand new three series pedals that's our 99 dollar line these white ones right here we're doing these let's get with it [Applause] [Music] last year in october we released seven 99 dollar pedals called the three series you guys have really enjoyed those so we're putting out three more and this is the world debut of those new pedals we have a phaser we have a flanger and we have a hall reverb so i'm going to walk you through each one of these and we're going to demonstrate them here we go first up let's look at the phaser it is a 99 pedal that says phaser and it gives your guitar the sound of phasing i have the phaser captain whoa it's groundbreaking really cool though and super versatile so we have a blend control a rate a width and a feedback so the blend is blending in the phasing effect with your clean signal rate is the speed of the lfo so slower phasing or faster phasing and then width is the width of that frequency response within the phaser and then feedback when you flip that up it does a cool thing with how it feeds back into itself this is inspired by phasers from the 1970s really classic things but then we gave those sounds a lot of versatility so you can do more modern sounds as well so the inspiration comes from things like the top gear phaser one of my favorite kind of weird british things gaia tone made all these amazing phasers in the 70s and 80s this one's from the 80s but it has similar characteristics a small stone it's a little different but it's most like in its vintage character the phase 100 it's a six stage phaser so that most resembles this and this is my absolute most favorite phaser i think doesn't matter but yeah gonna demonstrate it so i'm gonna give you like a different range of speeds i'm gonna flip on the feedback toggle i'm gonna add the three series overdrive that was released last year um and i'm just gonna have it kind of like a light crunch like kind of like baked chips instead of fried it's like when you just you need something on the lighter side so let's do that give it a jam let's do it now point point [Music] you [Music] hey [Music] here [Music] [Applause] [Music] good jam that was a mix of uh there's a sound garden song called boot camp i think i subliminally played that as well as did i hear corn tones did i hear the corn modern corn phaser did i maybe anyway it does a lot really versatile 99 i don't know there's nothing to really complain about you know what i mean it's a phase it's a really good phaser i guess we should move on brag much next up is the flanger i do want to say something it's very exciting in the 15-ish year history of jhs we've never had a phaser till now and never had a flange until now so this is kind of like the birth of two modulation effects that our line has never birthed the word birth is really uncomfortable we have blend rate intensity and tape so the blend is the blending of the flanged effect with the clean signal what's great about this is you can use the blend to achieve chorusy tones like some of my favorite chorus sounds and i've said this a million times on the show it's a flanger dialed back think of chorus like really cold milk josh pour me a glass of milk it's very satisfying and flangers like a milkshake say milkshake milkshake it's satisfying and really thick so you can use the blend control and go between really cold milky tones or almost frozen flanging tones then you have the rate control which again similar to the phaser slows down the lfo or speeds it up uh intensity is just the intensity of the flanging effect then you have the tape switch when you flip this up it emulates the sound of the first flanging effect ever which was done with analog tape machines the inspiration for this flanger comes from again classic flangers that i've always enjoyed one of the main ones is the mxr flanger has the power cable the one that you could technically electrocute yourself with it's really great i love the fx70 um you know the bf2 the old classic japanese made boss and then of course the ada so if you like those classic sounds this is a pedal that's going to get you those and gives you the ability to modernize some of that and it's 99 it's a flanger that does flanging i'm going to do a little thing here where i go through the settings in an increment let you hear some different versions and speeds of the tone through a passage and then i'm going to turn on the 3 series fuzz that was released last year and my goal it's going to be difficult i want to imagine a world where dave matthews probably around the year 2000 so after before these crowded streets he decides i'm gonna do shoegaze [Music] [Music] [Music] yes [Music] [Music] for a lot of views shoegaze is really offensive offense taken uh and dave matthews is offensive so offensive you're really offended at me but um i don't know it just it released a certain amount of rage that i had inside of me today to do that i know it was out of tune but that's the point just go listen to my bloody valentine you'll understand it's 99 it's a it's a flanger next pedal let's do it last of these three new three series pedals making ten total three series pedals ninety nine dollar pedals that means you could buy ten pedals for one thousand dollars that's pretty good right is that a good that's a good price i guess if you need 10 pedals and you have a thousand dollars let's talk about the hall reverb so some of you might be asking you already did a reverb so let's talk about this briefly if you didn't watch the videos from last year this is a kind of an interesting reverb in the fact that as we were writing code to do a three series verb there was a line of code that basically was bad like it was an error but it sounded amazing so this is this kind of strange i would call it lo-fi it's not a room it's not a plate it's not a hall it's just an interesting cool reverb and if you want to hear that go watch that demo so this next reverb and we plan on having many reverbs this is hall so hall reverb is probably i mean spring reverb is my favorite i use a lot but for the big effect of reverb hall for me always wins i think of things like the holy grail which i used for probably 65 years that hall setting but my favorite haul settings are from things like the verbzilla the rv6 uh the modulation with hull is cool and then there's the lexicon stuff there's some digitech pedals like this one that i love that just do these massive hall spaces and so a hall think of a big cathedral a giant room hard floors hard walls hard ceilings all these reflections um that's what this is all about and then you have a modulate toggle which modulates slightly pitches that reverb mix that's alongside the dry that's one of my favorite sounds so you have the verb which is that level or you could think of it as a mix and then you have dampened this is the same thing that the dampner pedal is it dampener words are really hard the damper pedal on a piano it's kind of dampening the decay but it's not killing the note it's just kind of taming some of these frequencies and making it a little more dull while at the same time letting it be a long decay and then decay is you could think of that as the size of the space the size of the hull it has the ability to do smaller sounds but i'm not interested in that today because i stayed up way too late i'm kind of tired and i'm hungry so i'm feeling like i need to do like a massive really moody jam so i'm going to keep it up here and then i'm going to play with this verb mix i'm also going to have the overdrive in this scenario so let's go to hall reverb town right now and and it's 99 and it does reverb hall reverb [Music] so [Music] [Music] so [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music] that is a wrap on these three new 3 series pedals i'm really excited for them i love having this line that we make here in kansas city we make it alongside of all of our other pedals and at 99 it's really cool we've seen a lot of players be able to get into a jhs pedal they couldn't afford the others um yeah this has been a really fun series for us as a company so thanks for supporting that all of you who have bought earlier versions i hope you're interested in these check them out the phaser the flanger and the hall reverb obviously my demos are never like demos it's just kind of me sharing with you what i like about what i do or other people's pedals in the description below there's some links to real demos from a lot of really great players who aren't going to play the same bullcrap that i play on every episode so check that out right now i think like that's it they're 99 just try them if you don't like them it's not that bad let's go to record time i guess i'm just trying to say are we done yeah instead of record time i don't know it's not 99 bucks it's like three cups of coffee let's go to record time where are you buying coffee it's fine it doesn't matter today's record time is brought to you by 2013's mbv that's my bloody valentine um i'm not going to say a ton here because this is a very polarizing group polarizing record but i really love it and some of our jams today kind of harken back those big crazy ambient sounds especially the flanging with the fuzz and the chaotic shoegaze thing this is really cool um kevin shields is the guitarist here and kind of the leader of the band and he's a very meticulous person when you listen to this and you should just know that it's very thought out to the point where even the mastering of the record they spent around 50 000 pounds just on that meticulously mastering things that i don't know that anyone would hear anyway very creative very interesting and like i said polarizing so in the comments listen to it let me know what you think and uh let me know if you're a fan of my bloody valentine you might have heard the record loveless it's kind of a classic shoegaze record anyway love it or hate it let me know in the comments thanks so much for watching this episode i hope you enjoyed it and i hope that you give these three series pedals a shot i think they're great for people needing a lot of tones within a certain effect for obviously a budget price of 99 so yeah check them out there's also as i said other demos real demos in the description below you can click those and learn more about them and hear different sounds also if you like this episode hit like subscribe and click the bell icon to get notifications of future episodes you can jam with us on all of these jams over at bandlab that link is below as well there's a patreon account where you can support us join the show and our preservation of petal history that we normally do on the show i think that's it i think that's everything for today there's a website the jhshow.com but you know i don't want to be pushy i don't want to do that so i think at this point we go our separate ways but we'll see you next week as always bye-bye like for real is it over is it are we finished okay we're done all right you
