Do These $50 Caline Pedals Sound Good?

This week, we try to answer the big questions: What is the meaning of life? Why does mankind create? Can a $50 pedal not suck? Answers: to play guitar, because guitars exist, and definitely, as long as said pedals are made by Caline Guitar Effects. Yeah, we're bragging on another budget pedal line this week, but we're also telling you how to get the "Dumble-esque" sound for around $50, so you're welcome.

Nope, that's a lie.

You sent threatening emails to myself and my friends with channels and websites...simply because you were an outside hire and your name wasn't mentioned for the design of most of the classic series, and you wanted glory and more work from other brands. You alone did so much damage to the work I did to build the company for two years that Caline will no longer be on this show or several others, it wasn't worth the stress anymore. That combined with Caline's poor management of not properly dealing with YOU, while also leaving me to publicly handle everything for them on social media while also naming and designing the dual series and several pedals prior...I quit. I also think it's funny how you tried to snake a job with Josh via email like everyone hasn't seen all the photo proof of what you said and your threats Mr "deep pockets" not to mention you used photos I personally took while working for Caline on your website to get more work for yourself, kinda ironic.

Both are very nice pedals. The Pure Sky was a flash purchase just because of its color is beautiful. After unboxing I tested the Pure Sky sound and it was fantastic. The Steel Singer is worth the wait as well for Dumble like sound as they say.

[@ahriik]

I'm a huge fan of Caline! I started picking up their stuff when I started playing guitar because they were inexpensive, but comparing them to some of my pricier stuff, they still hold their own incredibly well. Their TS clone, the CP-49 Midlander, is hands-down my favorite TS that I've ever used. I've compared it to a bunch of other clones and even a genuine TS-Mini, but the Caline offers far more range of control over the gain. The Pure Sky is also a classic that I use all the time. Their 10-band EQ is cheap and works perfectly. I recently picked up the Mellow Drive and it's just fantastic, very solid "warm" and "creamy" OD. They are certainly several steps above the other China-based clone manufacturers, kind like how Joyo has been putting out more unique and well-branded stuff lately.

[@drewwynne736]

Is the Pure Sky similar to the Walrus Mayflower and Earthquaker Westwood? Or is it more of a Timmy clone?

[@ahriik]

@@drewwynne736 From what I know those two are also (at least somewhat) based on the Timmy, so the Pure Sky probably shares some DNA with them (being based on the Timmy as well). That said, I wouldn't call it a straight-up Timmy clone. It doesn't have a clipping toggle, but its still super versatile - lot's of range in the gain knob so you can go from nearly clean-boost territory to moderate overdrive. More versatile than a TS9 for sure. If you play with the knobs you can certainly get quite close to a Timmy, if that's what you really want. But I see it as just another flavor in my overdrive toolbox. It's so inexpensive I just tell people to go ahead and get one - if they don't love it, hey it's only $30. Plus, it probably has the most re-sale value of any other Caline because that's usually the one pedal people go for even if they don't know about any of the other Caline stuff.

Caline is my favorite affordable pedal company. I have their Medusa and Pegasus Klon klones, and I also have their Mellow Drive Dumble/Zendrive type, their Pure Sky Timmy type, their Captain Silver TS808/TS9, their Queen Bee Sweet Honey clone, the Enchanted Tone, and their Highway Man RC Booster clone, which is my latest favorite, as well as the Movall Minotaur, their mini Klon type. All the new Movall pedals are rebranded Azor pedals (which I have a few of too), which is Caline's mini line. Dolamo and Pigtone are also rebranded Caline pedals. My favorites are the Medusa, Queen Bee, Highway Man (I actually have the Dolamo version, the yellow overdrive), Mellow Drive, Movall Minotaur (Azor AP-320), the Azor AP-308 (mini version of the Pure Sky), and the Azor Leon OCD clone. I used to have the Orange Burst BB preamp clone, the Midlander TS, and the Big Orange too. The next ones that I want are the American Sound, British Sound, California Sound, and AC Tone, their versions of the Tech 21 Character pedals, which Joyo also has

The 3 of these costs just under $110. Including shipping.

The Nux Atlantic is SO good. Only Caline pedal I used was a 10 band EQ that was broken, upgraded to a Joyo R series one.

[@therollband1290]

If you look up Mineral on Spotify this is what it says- “When Mineral broke up in 1998, they had been together for only four years and released only two full-lengths, yet their shaping of the indie rock landscape cannot be overstated. The Austin four got together in 1994 and wasted no time in blanketing the country and cranking out 7"s, initially hooking with the label of tourmates Christy Front Drive, The Audio Concept, and Caulfield Records. A zine editor in Colorado, impressed with Mineral's groundbreaking blend of power and emotion, sent a 7" to the chief of fledgling Crank! Records, Jeff Matlow. The band received repeated phone calls that day from Matlow, and thus began a marriage that would launch both label and band into underground fame. Mineral's first full-length, The Power of Failing, was a powerful success and inspired a rabid following among scenesters. The young band's grasp of dynamics and thoughtful lyrics about coming of age also influenced indie rock bands everywhere, as their sound still permeates across the underground. End Serenading turned out to be the end for Mineral, which had agreed to do its next record with Interscope, a record that never happened. Still only in their early twenties, bandmembers moved onto new projects: singer/guitarist Chris Simpson and bassist Jeremy Gomez began the Gloria Record and drummer Gabe Wiley joined Pop Unknown. ~ Ron DePasquale, Rovi”

Thanks for the pedal reviews! And thanks for a "Mineral" shout out! Brings me back to my angsty '90's teenage years.

A few years a ago I reviewed a couple of Caline pedals for a Dutch music magazine. Among them where the "Crazy Cacti", the "Englishman", the "Orange Burst" and the "Tuner/Power CP-09". Though the price of these pedals also were low, they sounded surprisingly good. I often use the "Englishman" and the Power/Tuner and they do a great job among a lot of other (much more expensive) pedals that I own. It's nice to see that Josh is also positive about them and since I really trust his expertise I got myself a "Jaguar", that arrived today. After playing with it for about two hours I can only say that it's again good value for the money. I also think it's awesome that Josh, being a manufacturer of his own brand JHS, makes these great clips about other brands! And as always in his own way that I like a lot! Thanks!!

7/50 is only .14, but the correct math is $50/7 effects ... or $7.14 per effect. :-D Thanks for the informative, humorous, and entertaining video! I subscribed to your channel and purchased an "Enchanted Tone" before the video even finished.

[@kissapeles]

Thank you @durelle78 for pointing this out! Thank you JHS for continuously creating entertaining content

Nice review 🤟

The fact that josh has children is always so shocking to me and I don’t know why xD

[@jamesroy9182]

I know, right? I look at Josh and think wow how does a twelve year old have a whole company. (i have ye olde)

[@johntedesco6304]

Josh, a question: What’s the tipping point between copying a pedal and copyright infringement? How can anyone make, for instance, a Boss RC-1 clone and not get instantly sued?

[@elkcibdej]

I’ve heard it explained that you can’t really patent guitar pedal circuits because they are relatively simple + derivative. For instance, the boss RC-1 didn’t invent the whole concept of the looper, so they can’t really claim it as entirely their own. That would be like Nike trying to patent the running shoe because they make a new, really good running shoe. At least I think that’s how it is. Copyright stuff doesn’t make a whole lot of sense IMO 🤣

[@unsoundmethodology]

The don't-take-legal-advice-from-a-youtube-comment basic answer is that a circuit can't be copyrighted. It can be patented, _if_ it's sufficiently new and different, but patenting an invention is an arduous and expensive process and doesn't pay off unless you're a big corporation with lawyers to burn. If it's just a tweak to an established circuit, there's nothing to patent - especially if anybody else has already made that tweak, which is the case for most clone/mod pedals. Software _can_ be copyrighted, and a fully dsp pedal usually isn't much more than a processor and the I/O, so a digital pedal can't be directly cloned - but it's fine if your digital pedal works exactly the same way as somebody else's, as long as you write the code yourself. Obviously, artwork and designs can be copyrighted and trademarked, so you can't directly copy those, but nobody can stop you from making it pretty clear what pedal you're cloning.

[@stephc4427]

To patent something it has to be novel and not derivative of something already existing. There's nothing in signal modulation or alteration that could be proposed as novel at this point. Maybe an implantable wireless amp receiver effects so all you have to do is play your guitar into a wireless transmitter. Silent jamming.

[@adamwujczyk3010]

Caline is my favorite budget pedal company. Stack Attack, Big Chief, and the Orange Burst overdrive are a few of my favorites from Caline.

[@owmyhands]

Good to see some love for Caline pedals. I have a couple (Orange Burst, The Big Orange, and have a Pure Sky being delivered soon) and they're amazing for the price.

Josh: "50 dollars, thats three coffees?" Me: "Wait.. thats 9 bottles of good wine, where I live?" ;)

[@marekw7562]

No bez przesady z "dobrym". Ale coś w tym jest

And about 15 cups of coffee, easily

[@charlesrense5199]

That's twenty coffees if you like black coffee.

[@zpacula]

American buddy of mine once told me to stop overthinking the purchase and just get both pedals I've been deciding between "since it would cost less than a lunch" Yeah buddy, cheaper than lunch for a week and some...

[@neilsherer1766]

@@zpacula He must live in New York City or L.A. because here in the south $50 can be close to 5 or more lunches.

I think I know why the Osmium pedal is called that! On the periodic table Osmium is the heaviest metal. Did you see what they did there????? :)

[@davidwilson7042]

Josh, love the channel. Sounds like I need to buy some of their great-sounding pedals. Mineral sounds pretty cool.

[@spaz4774]

That was really helpful. I like the Caline pedals and have four of them, each of which sounds great to me.

[@jasonshaw2065]

Sounding gray. That's synesthesia! Bonus level achieved!

[@TheAmazingSnarf]

the sounds coming from Josh's amplifier taste like colors.

I'm here for Josh's sense of humor. Always cracks me up.

[@tsubakiharukawa8633]

[@jeremyhuston1]

Just found the channel. Watched a few videos. After this one I subscribed and liked. Little comedy, some good sounding pedals with a demo, and a band suggestion. Great work.

[@elliottsidewater1288]

When you were demonstrating the Wonderland, I closed my eyes and heard the background singers on "You Can't Always Get What You Want". Amazing

[@advancepixel5908]

It’s nice that he’s not getting paid, so we get an honest review

[@Sailor_Man_Music]

Dude just cause someone does get paid doesn’t mean it’s not honest. You can hear it for yourself. Henning Paula gets paid but his reviews are honest as they can be. You get paid regardless if you do a great review or not lol. I don’t understand you can actually hear the tone in these pedals. I don’t know if I could make money by tellin people there stuff is junk or not I would do it. Just saying.

End Serenading was one of my favourite albums in high school. I loved all that midwest stuff and still listen to the Appleseed Cast all the time. I personally like Mineral more than his later work on The Gloria Record.

That jaguar sounds great. I have a Ragnarok reverb delay and I bloody love it.
