I bought the Triumph pedal a few months back. It is good and worth getting for the price.

Had one for awhile then I got rid of it and bought a used Tumnus Deluxe and it has been my favorite overdrive. Couldn’t recommend it enough

@@cruzcastro4681what are the differences between the two ?

Exactly why Josh has a great rep. The other things is all the boutique manufactures know each other. But I dont know if JHS is small-time esp when you look at the number of employees he has. Josh is top-shelf for sure!

Look at peoples boards. Nobody every has all the same brand. Heck, look at the wall behind him! They are aware that people who like wampler and earthquaker also like JHS. I’m sure he would rather we buy an american competetor than some Chinese made knock off

EHX isn’t made stateside though. The boards are made and populated in China, then shipped to NYC where they do final assembly and QC. These three all have the boards made and populated in the US. That’s not a knock against EHX at all, they make great stuff at reasonable prices, just trying to clarify.

@@tylermarshall6180 niiice , thank you sir. I've never really questioned it!

@@tylermarshall6180when did that start I wonder? I know they’ve done that for years, but They used to be made in the states. In fact, up until recently (is 10 years recent??) their pedals even said “Made in NYC”. Now it just says “New York City” which a small change of words but big implications.

the 23$ azor overdrive and leon drive are both amazing for the price point as well

It can really do anything in terms of genre, I love mine

thats a TS clone btw

Tried one; didn't care for it. Too much tone suck.

Ditto for this

i like green

Yep, lovely warm tone 👍

They are distortion pedals-don’t come in swinging saying “they’re overdrives!!!” Overdrives distort the audio signal. This is what distortion sounds like. You may get variety in sound with different EQ frequency additions or subtractions, but at the end of the day distortion is distortion. You can increase or decrease gain levels for extra distortion, you can use compression to squash the signal. I guess what I’m saying in a round about way is you can accomplish almost any sound you want with an EQ pedal, a gain pedal, and a compressor. These guitar pedals are variations on the same handful of circuits repackaged with tweaks in features, but mostly EQ. I probably have several mistakes in my logic, so I’m happy to take criticism.

They most certainly did not

When listening through headphones, they sound different.

You should watch the video on $100 hearing aids

$60??? Used.

@@44scoots get a new one for 60 bucks

I liked it better at 45 bucks 🤷‍♂️ Pretty sure you coulda gone Maxon dmfor 2 bills, but hey, not my money

😂

The Triumph is still available new with plenty in stock. The price will not fluctuate like things on the used market. I know you’re joking, but still.

@jeffmansfield914 its about the bad money comparison meaning circuits are easy and should jot be exploited

Put it against the 3 series overdrive? Or are you talking about the 3 series screamer? Just curious because I’m currently trying to decide between the overdrive and the screamer from JHS 3 series. Thanks ✌🏻

The 3 series overdrive. It should be noted I'm not a fan of the tube screamer. @@brianrollins7275

I do the same with an HM-2 I bought new in 1987. I was not a pedal guy so I just kept playing with it to do everything.

Good to know thanks. Also it’s not made in America it’s made in China.

@TheTiredHorizon then i guess it's time to make revolution and make a new type of circuit, we can't just stay stuck in the same formula forever, we'd be kidding ourselves to do so. If it ain't broke to fix it yet there's no issue *adding something else to the shelf with the other awesome inventions that have been rolling in through the decades*

It’s like going to a Mexican restaurant and saying “the ingredients you have are meat, lettuce, tomatoes, cheese, cilantro, avocado, and tortillas… why don’t you make something NEW out of those?!?!”. They have already made all the combinations of those things. Sure you could add in some other ingredients that have never been used in Mexican cuisine, but then it kinda stops being Mexican food. There are only so many ways to clip a signal to get overdrive. The different “mother circuits” out there are basically the ways to do it. All the clones are slight mods to that with differing EQ shaping, or different ways to control certain parameters, but there’s only so much variation that can be done. If you start introducing something radically different, in terms of components or circuit design, what you’ll get is something that isn’t overdrive.

@@jeffmansfield914 with Mexican food to get something new out of it you'd have to get out of a *xenophobic stereotype,* *latino* culture has more than what you just said and *we* can be found doing new recipes in food and other *experiments* with different types of things. Sure different overdrives are here and everywhere but it's still just *overdrive,* and technology isn't food and getting something that isn't overdrive isn't *bad,* it would amount to something else maybe or maybe not new. Sometimes you have to take risks, trail and error, if it's your passion there's always something to be learned in these endeavors. Also you technically can still cook new things with those ingredients you'd just have to have the imagination and the patience for it.

@@jeffmansfield914 recipes don't fall from the sky, you make them with things that people usually don't think there is a road. Who knows if once in time a person told another one that you couldn't add 4+4 and the person did and now it's part of our kindergarden class logically. Maybe taking apart a Yamaha 70s synth might have something in it or maybe not but that's the fun I'm something new, it pays off in the end becoming worth the spend. Don't stay too comfortable with a already made recipe because you might not make a new one you'll end up repeating the old one just with hot sauce.

By all means people experiment with what pedals you have, whether it's tinkering or changing settings but never turn a blind eye on a new type of pedal that is different from the others making a whole new sound.
