JHS Pedals Pulp N Peel V4 Compressor / Preamp

[@whitewizzardllc2348]

I swear this guy must have spent 12 hours a day 7 days a week learning tones and songs since he was 10 years old. He can play anything and nail every tone ever. He’s an alien.

[@projectgoatse]

Andy playing Andy... it's just so right.

[@icecreampimpdeux]

Hehe awesome

[@lance134679]

Another great demo. I like the direction JHS is going with this pedal, with a proper tone control of both lows and highs, and even a dirt switch. It's becoming quite the tone shaper.

[@TDOVmusic]

Paul Rudd plays really good!!

[@mauijet]

I just got one a couple weeks ago. Wanted to replace my Jangle Box compressor, which I use with it's treble boost, but needed more control. I think the PnP v.4 will do it! The Jangle Box is great to get that Birds / Beatles chime but can get too harsh and brittle. A sound man once told me that, after starting out a set of 3 songs in a row, with it on.With this new PnP, being able to blend in some dry signal should warm it up, or go full comp if needed. Having the see saw eq and still being able to get a treble boost was the seller. More control plus Jangle!

Local H... brings back memories!

[@TannerTbonePape]

This pulp n peel is an amazing unit. The newer versions of the v4 in 2023 doesn't have the buffer switch. Wich I thought was weird.

[@Jalliams]

Really nice playing and tones. It's a nice sounding comp, yes there are MANY nowadays but JHS are up there.. hence the price. TC Electronic's latest offering in compression is nothing on this unit.

[@the1trueporkchop]

Kinda wish this featured a little more bass. Great demo though!

[@scottmckay67]

sweet tones indeed, good pedal.

[@luckylicks3497]

The tele's cream color is nice..

[@TJRy12921]

Local H? Nice.

[@duaneanderson9492]

great intro andy , great as usual

[@Smurfman256]

Didn't the bridge of "Can't Stand Loosing You" use a Deluxe Electric Mistress?

[@wladyfdz8316]

Smurfman256 Yes and a Echoplex

[@exohead1]

I really want a pulp n peel but it’s missing control over a couple of parameters I’d really like to have control over. Thanks for this!

[@andrewstendahl36]

Since compressor pedals go first in the signal chain, they are placed on the far right at the end of a row of guitar pedals. The XLR out input jack should have been installed by JHS on the right side of this pedal. You'd have to keep a same size pedal on the far left of your pedalboard and switch the order of pedals at both ends of your pedalboard to be able to plug into the XLR input jack. You'd have to put your compressor at the end of the chain instead of at the start where it's supposed to be

[@MFChickenFlipper]

​@@andrewstendahl36I've used compressors at the end of a chain (like on my Punchline), and it still sounds fantastic. Maybe not as effective as it would be at the start, but it still shapes the tone in a very lovely way, and helps a ton with sustain.

[@champamoore]

+ProGuitarShopDemos It's been said before, I'll say t again. Andy knows how to make anything/everything he plays sound amazing. I'm curious if the DI sends dry or wet signal. Would be a great utility function to have a switch for preamp only!

[@stephen9944]

sick playing Andy

[@wanmorgan]

This sounds awesome..

[@edadpops1709]

Dan armstrongs orange squeezer, was reissued at some point as orange crusher.

[@davidtoro12]

Good job Mike Adriano

[@iananderson12796]

Some pedal steel sounds during the chicken pick'n

[@scottmckay67]

the tele, never heard of the make before, any info welcome.

[@kevinmalone8903]

scott mckay his Dad builds them. Redtail I think is the name. I know it's been a year since you asked lol

[@christopherrusch]

Was thinking about getting the boss compressor.... should I get this instead? Or are there any other compressors I should look at? I’m kind of new to this..

[@joejones4237]

Genius

[@jamesnortonofficial1566]

I like this ..

[@steverayburn6271]

police!

[@hankgalt]

Sorry for my ignorance, but what 'citrus inspired compressor' is he referring to? Thanks

[@adamhenaghan4417]

+Joe Sanders Dynacomp possibly?

[@edadpops1709]

+Joe Sanders 70s orange crush

[@TonyHawkTuah]

+Joe Sanders I thought it was a grapefruit !! ;-)

[@hankgalt]

+flight1311 orange squeezer it is. Thanks, I didn't know that pedal

[@antovitie]

the last two songs?

[@gusc.4708]

How much does that EQ knob cut out? I'm looking for an eq pedal that could completely eliminate the highs and mids. Does this knob function like that when pulled all the way to one side?

[@andrewstendahl36]

I ponder an EQ pedal addition idea too. Ive read that the single tone knob EQ on the Pulp N Peel doesn't work all that well, I also read about the JHS Haunting Mids pedal and the Earthquaker Devices Tone Job EQ pedals and no one was as impressed as they anticipated

[@andrewstendahl36]

People aspire to align a row of pedals with the intent to match in case size dimensions with the same pedal brand. JHS makes a lot of different themed overdrive pedals and also a decent Emperor Chorus V2 Pedal but their other modulation effects like their Kodiak tremolo and Mini Tidewater tremolo pedals, their Univibe, all of their Delay pedals (pedals other than their Emperor Chorus pedal and their overdrive pedals) dont have much range. They also make this offputting pulsating clicking noise even when using an isolated power supply which is distracting. I'm fairly cerartin people get Compressors or EQ pedals just to match them out with their other pedals. Compressor pedals arent much fun to play with. Compressor pedals limit sustain and volume surges with a squished feel -eh nah. Maybe like me, they have and like the EQD Dispatch Master and EQD Westwood yet aren't enticed by Rainbow machines, Data Corrupters, Sea Machines and Arpanoids. To stay with the EQD matching pedal size case and theme, a valid option then seems to add a matching EQD Tone Job EQ or EQD Warden Compressor pedal. It wont feel too much like an impulse buy but to hear it is to feel deceived. I can't honestly say I've ever had the craving to alter my bass and treble frequencies beyond what my guitar and amp calibrate together with an EQ pedal. Or nail a limited sustain feel coupled with volume/attack suppression from a compressor pedal

[@WhiskeyYouth]

what is that song on the strat? I can't figure it out. I've heard it a million times

[@Philosophers]

Local H - Bound For The Floor

[@TheJofrica]

Those are some nice cables....what are they?

[@winkytct]

What bass guitar are you using in these demos?

[@braddietzmusic2429]

1982 Ibanez "Musician" MC-924 neck through bass. Passive and active switch, three band eq, Humbucker and single coil pickup. Walnut "wings".

[@winkytct]

+Brad Dietz Thank you!

[@braddietzmusic2429]

I know this because I've owned one now for +10 years. :)

[@BurgersforBreakfast127]

JHS confuses me. Are they awesome or just hit n miss? Neat features but, let's face it, it's a compressor. Bells and whistles or not, it's gonna still sound like a compressor compressing. And Andy's damn awesome playing and killer talent for showcasing pedals strengths/features to their fullest isn't helping matters any. ok, maybe it's cool. i dunno.

[@adamfischer7638]

+Hatchet House Meh. They pretty much just make clones of other pedals, frequently charging more that one would pay for the original of whatever they're cloning. This is an exception as an Orange Squeezer is a high ticket item, but for the most part JHS isn't breaking the ground that their high price tag would suggest.

[@luckylicks3497]

+Adam Fischer JHS seeks to improve on existing circuits.. so what the heck if they do make them better. The Pulp'n'Peel is certainly a quality box that has a lot of features not found on other comps. Forget the features, just the compressor along is killer. I'm still sorry for selling my version 3. By the way, everything in this world is a clone, i.e. the first car, t-shirt, hat, wallet, microwave, pencil, etc. etc.

[@crisrose521]

You don’t show how to use it with an acoustic or a nice shimmering 12 string . . . ? ?

[@ProGuitarShopDemos]

That's true, we didn't have a 12 string in the shop back then. I now have a Reverend Airwave that I try to include on compressor videos for Reverb and AndyDemos channels. Andy

[@brexxebender1204]

I don't get compression pedals.. I've had a few but can't really tell a big difference.. so to me 200 plus is about 150 too much for a compression pedal... All of the pedals out for the matter actually are just high priced copycats of all the pedals b4.. Think they ran out of ideas...

[@LeviBulger]

It's probably the most subtle effect out there, but once you dial a good one in, you almost never wanna do without it. Many people use it as an always on pedal with just slight compression so as not to affect the attack
