Hey Captain, Economics Professor here: When you save costs by producing a larger variety of products (but that are maybe similar) it's actually called Economies of Scope. Economies of Scale are when you save costs by producing more of the same product. Hehe, sorry, just had to leave that comment ;) Love your reviews!

[@RechargingBatteries]

Yes, the economies of scale is referring to the individual components right? You are producing many of the same knobs for example

[@andertons]

Sorry Professor!! :)

[@avenue6.554]

Economy of time demands that it wasn’t the Captain who actually replied to this comment. 🤣

[@Ratchman_5000]

You tell em professor!

[@lanceburnett27]

Actually, he's referring to the chassis and the knobs, along with the input jack... And since they ARE all the same product, the Captain is correct. It's economies of scale.

[@NH-nj3nw]

JHS should start selling sticker sheets for each pedal. Sell them for $2-3 per sheet. Or $10 for all of them. Get fans to submit art for stickers.

[@JakeSweeper]

Neat idea. Have you told JHS, yet?

[@NH-nj3nw]

@@JakeSweeper I have not.

[@dale8809]

I'm more than a little impressed with these. The "no frills" finish is just genius.

[@dancrowe7860]

Things I learned by watching this video: 1) it is possible to build a high-quality, good-sounding pedal for under $100. 2) Pete has a new toy. 3) Rebea reads instruction manuals. Stonking video, fellas!

[@BOTx5]

Lee giving the duster a snack is my new favourite thing.

[@heymrguitarman7637]

I mean what's not to like. Everything by JHS is good quality so that's not going to change. Save money by simple graphics and straight forward circuit designs. Perfect for simple players like myself, everything you need, nothing you don't

[@andertons]

Couldn't of put it better ourselves! Plus you get to draw on your own graphics...

[@AdamGotheridge]

It looks like the button is farther from the knobs which is another big bonus.

[@jordandangelo180]

The reverb sounds stellar to me. I ordered one right away. I wanted simple but still sounding expensive and I really think the reverb and delay are just as good as most expensive reverbs or delay pedals.

[@AdamGotheridge]

@@jordandangelo180 Funny, the compressor kind of grabbed me. ;) Would have liked to hear a lot more of the chorus.

[@jordandangelo180]

His channel has always been one of my favorites and his playing is really top notch. I especially love the heavy stuff and the Soldano amp demo video was incredible sounding.

[@RandomGuitarGuy]

Rabea could play a mandolin through a burning toaster and make it sound good.

[@mattsmitchger259]

My girlfriend didn't know what a "boutique" amp was and I referred to an amp as not being legit boutique. She thought "legit boutique" was a slang term. Like "Dude, that show was legit boutique". So now I say it in that context. Maybe it'll catch on.😆

Fun fact: Kansas City Missouri was actually founded eight years before the state of Kansas. When they drew up the lines for the state they incorporated part of Kansas City into it. Also jhs pedals are made in missouri. Hope you don't think this comment as rude just wanted to bequeath my knowledge of this to you guys. Great video. Thank you.

Thank you for that. I’ve been an American all 51 years of my life and I never knew that!!!

That CHORUS!!!!! 🤤🤤🤤 That REVERB!!!!!! 🤤🤤🤤 Amazing sounds!!!!

[@peterbigblock]

Absolutely brilliant series of pedals. $99 for excellent pedals that aren’t mass-produced in China, but are actually hand-built in Kansas City. In the long run you get what you pay for. Love the JHS 3-Series, and absolutely brilliant playing Rabea!

[@81OrangeCrush]

There is a Kansas City, Kansas and a Kansas City, Missouri. They share state lines so they are kind of the same city.

[@proudtexan8521]

But, for accuracy's sake, they are on the MO side. Both sides have access to great BBQ, though. :)

[@troyspencer712]

the Fuzz, chorus and reverb are the wishlist items for me. I like that he added a lil something to each pedal.

[@nekot9274]

Just for the ones who might be interested, the distortion pedal sound great on Bass too, the filter has a sweet spot for bass at about the first third of it's course where there is not much (if any ) bass frequency loss, awesome pedal.

[@maxpill2500]

Rabea, You have absolutley nailed that CW sound on the compressor pedal !!!

[@stoneysdead689]

Imo Josh made this line to fill out the bread and butter of your board- so to speak. These are the basic effects everyone uses- overdrive, dist., reverb, chorus, etc. If you can fill out these basic needs for less money- it leaves more money for the fun stuff. And an added bonus- if you know a tone snob you can let them hear these- and once they're bragging on how good they sound- tell them they're digital. All of them- not just the delay. LOL

[@dwangs465]

I got the reverb and distortion pedal and they are amazing love the look my kids have enjoyed drawing on them and covering them in stickers. These pedals are pure genius super easy to use sound great and don't cost a fortune.

[@AD1TYA]

Is that Pete with the fluffy pedal cleaner?

[@jameslewis2635]

I think there is a lot to be said for a range of pedals featuring a standardised shell and general layout. As well as helping to save on the manufacturing costs this approach also makes it a lot easier for someone to construct a pedal board with a reasonable layout. If you think back to pedal boards of the past you can just imagine the arranging a original shape Guv'nor (fairly large metal box), then you have a few Boss pedals which are fairly small but this Fuzz Face is massive leading to a board that you can probably spend a couple of hours trying to figure out how to layout and route stuff to work well.

[@Murry_in_Arizona]

Thanks Lee! I love the "family business" helping , promoting the "family business" products aspect. Hope you both do well ( make money) on what's obviously a quality product.

[@xx05jurtos]

Wow - The Captain is killing it these days. I remember the old vids. Great pedals, too!

Not only is the guitar beautiful, but Rabea plays with a lot of class. As for the captain, we feel that he has something French in him. Good job boys !

[@jiros00]

You should interview Nandi Bushell. For those who don't know she is a 10 year old multi-instrumentalist. Drummer (who just beat Dave Grohl in a drum battle) but also guitarist, bassist and keyboard player. The future of rock has never been so assured.

[@andremellao4882]

what a great pedals, I've been playing for 35 years and tried everything and i can hear that they are fantastic!!

[@cloudshad0ws]

I believe the distortion is a ProCo Rat (or at least based on it), given the use of a "filter" knob. I like the overdrive because it uses a pretty obscure, discontinued circuit and Josh got the guy's permission to use it.

[@cameron435]

Captain Lee’s riff at the end of this thing with the fuzz is gnarly enough to shake the foundations of Camelot.

JHS should do a version of all pedals in one big unit, like de pink flow from Jam Pedals, and charge 600 or 650 or something like that.. that would be awesome!!

[@guygraham2580]

I'd be very interested if Josh combined a few of these basic pedals into a fully featured, yet compact and simple to use, all-in-one flyrig type of unit. Start with a basic but wide-ranging drive/distortion module (and maybe tuner) plus other staple, simple fx (even if just reverb) and including a footswitchable external series fx loop for maximum flexibility. Then provide various useful outputs, including basic amp-in-a-box option(s) offering separate, individually defeatable outputs (to suit the destination of each feed) for XLR DI to go straight to FOH, TS jack for an amp or powered monitor speaker, plus headphone out with dedicated volume, all able to use a simple cabinet sim, offering typical different impedances + levels for flexible use with mixing desk mic inputs, guitar amps, professional standard line level for recording interfaces, etc. The usual high JHS build quality - for a reliable, professional all-in-one gigging / backup solution - could make this a very popular product. The fx could also be simple enough to be equally functional with bass guitar - especially since Josh always assures us that all his pedals can work perfectly well on other instruments, eg no loss of low end on bass.

[@Steph_7d7]

I really like the delay and the hall reverb, awesome pedals

[@sebastionhawk5565]
