Hey! A while ago I did some research and virtually created a pedalboard where almost every item was under 50$, sometimes well under. I'll mention a couple of the ones I found most interesting, both from XVive: The V9 Lemon Squeezer (compressor) and the T1 Golden Brownie (allegedly a vintage JCM 800 in a tiny box). I wonder if you know them and what you think. If you haven't heard of them, I hope this comment helps you to discover some new pedals! www.xviveaudio.com I'd also mention their Tube Screamer but it seems to be out of production currently. It was nice because it was at the same time a Fuzz pedal once you cranked the gain past 12 o'clock, according to the reviews.

This man is the sole reason I spend 75% of my disposable income on guitar pedals.

In the 45 years since I played my first gigs, I've watched the pedal industry explode into a multi-faceted scene, catering for everyone from the multi-millionaire rock star, with more money than sense, to the kid saving their pocket money for their first overdrive. In the 70's, an MXR distortion plus retailed in the UK (from whence mine came), for what was then 2 weeks wages. But today, as your show so amply demonstrates, princes and paupers alike, can revel in the wonderful world of guitar effects. And thanks to people such as yourself, the hideous snobbery that so often spoils the enjoyment for the less financially fortunate, is turned on it's pompous ass, with proof (if it were needed), that great sounds are available, without a great bank account. Thanks again Josh, for keeping it real. FWIW, I have a $30 (Australian, so probably about US$4.50) boost pedal by Kokko, that never leaves my board. A lot of the pedals in this episode, are a fair bit more expensive in Australia, but still reasonable. And its great to have the Guru of More Good give the nod to these cheaper expression machines.

Amazing how much of an influence Josh has been on the used pedal market. Really goes to show how well regarded he's become since starting this channel.

Man, the guitar examples in this video are my favourite of Josh’s playing so far on the channel, so so so good with each effect, especially that flanger

When I first started playing acoustic gigs, I used the Edward the Comp pedal as a vocal comp with a Hi Z cable adapter. I used it subtly & once I dialed it in, it worked unbelievable well. It made my vocal notes sustain smoother and it helped even out the dynamics so I didn't have to move in & out as much. It actually sounded professional. Btw, I think if more people tried a bit of comp on their live vocals, they'd love it & so would their audience. It's almost like adding a bit of Autotune but in a more natural way. (Kind of similar to how reverb smooths notes out & makes them sound more steady/ uniform).

Just wanted to say this channel has become my favorite KZread channel and I can't get enough of it. I've always loved guitar pedals even though I mostly play bass and synth. Some cheap pedals I have bought that I like are the Joyo JF-12 Voodoo Octava (it's green!!), Caline CP-26 reverb, Donner Ultimate Comp compressor & the Caline CP-18 Orange Burst overdrive. I was doing an experiment to see if I liked cheap pedals as much as the expensive stuff. I Liked them a lot. They are sturdy in metal enclosures and all sound good to me. My point is that for me price does not correlate to how much I like a pedal. Your video Made me happy because a person like you who is respected in the pedal world is kinda saying the same thing or at least that's my interpretation. Thanks for all the awesome videos you are making.

I have it now. It's brutal lol.. Sucks all the bass out your signal into a cold metallic flange hell. Also, out of 10 pedals i have in the chain it makes the most noise, an ear piercing ring with paired with certain other effects. HOWEVER, you pump the bass up a bit and do some overdrive/compression before it hits this pedal and it's crazy good. Amazing. Will probably never switch it out, it's cherry on top of my heavy sound, the final layer before maybe an all encompassing stereo verb or delay at the very end of the chain. Helps me sound like Neil Young and the Horse at their heaviest and most psychedelic. That or Hawkwind. FK YEAH.

I love that Travis album. Thanks for the reminder. The overdriven guitar part on As You Are (orange amp) is soooooo good.

Dude! I just came across your channel a couple days ago. You have the most glorious pedal collection I have ever seen. Keep on Keeping on!

Just listened to “writing to reach you”. I’m now a fan! (Insert slow 👏🏻 clap)...What a phenomenal recommendation! Your show is simultaneously informative and awesome. A pedal manufacturer that is willing to support and endorse other pedal companies (mind blown 🤯). Please keep it up!

"Why Does it Always Rain on Me" is a lost classic.

Screaming skull during the donner metal pedal made me subscribe, honestly made my day

Just come across your channel and love it. Very informative for someone aged 60 just getting into playing the guitar.

I’ve tried quite a few Danelectro pedals that I really liked. The Fish and Chips EQ is actually one of my favorite EQ pedals. Even the little mini ones are usually great sounding.

I would love to see you do a full on Joyo episode covering their pedals as well as the Dr J stuff you were talking about.

I've got the MXR GT-OD! I struggled for years making it work for me. Now I'm using it without expecting things it can't do, I use it for what it's good for.

My favorite moment on that Travis album is during “As You Are” when the big guitar comes in around 2:40. It’s way too loud but it’s perfect.

Badly Drawn Boy: "The Hour of the Bewilderbeast." Favorite Brit Rock Record.

Dude, yes to Travis! I’m a hard rock guy, and this album is secretly one of my favorite records too. I consider it a comfort album when I need amazing warm tones, tasteful songwriting, and inspiration. Also, how about that bonus track?! Blue Flashing Lights tips. Thanks for the amazing video, I might just go out and buy all of these pedals!

The more I watch, the more I love this channel. Great sense of humor, too.

I love pedals. Im obsessed. Electronics, music waves, built materiales, and most important of all, guitar sounds and playing.

Absolutely lovin' that Sky Surfer!

Donner pedals are killers!!, i have 2 and i’m in love with those nano powers!

I dig the videos a lot. Super helpful for somebody, like me, that has limited pedal knowledge. Also, I like that you’re a fellow bike dork.

TRAVIS has always been super under appreciated and noticed outside of British rock and that does sadden me but loved when you revealed this record and rocking band all peeps should discover

I can only hope Skelly becomes a regular. Big fan of that DOD pedal. Its subtle sounds work great on recordings. Favorite cheap pedals are probably the Behringer Fuzz, MXR Custom Modified Overdrive, and the Microtron.

I've got the DOD 747 flanger and it's by far my favorite ever. Every other flanger I find always sounds like a modulated bitcrusher, with a really digital sounding sweep. The 747 can do that style of flange, but if you dial it right and go for a more subtle chorus-type sound, it has absolutely no digital "edges" to the sound, and it sounds like your signal is running through water. Smoothest thing I've ever heard!

Thanks for the album recommendation! I had never heard of it, and really enjoy it. I just started watching your videos yesterday, and I'm thinking of skimming through a bunch of them for the album recommendations.

Dude - your sense of humor really makes these videos shine. Almost as awesome as your tone.

I miss this kind of video! I also miss Reverb having anything under $50

I was pretty much already in love with you, but your love for The Man Who sealed the deal.

The Man Who!!! In my top 5 favourite records of all time. Huge impact on inspiring my guitar playing.

Great video as usual! My favorite brit rock is the Kooks early stuff. Thanks for the tip on Travis. Liking it so far. 🤙

The skull really knows how to rock

He needs to do a whole episode on donner pedals, I love their mini pedals

I am so happy you brought up that record at the end (and surprised at the same time). Definitely one of the best brit albums ever, if not the best.

That DOD flanger was the first pedal I ever bought, and still one of my favorites.

What I find most amusing is that the people now pumping up the prices on these pedals in Reverb are missing the ENTIRE REASON we are watching this video. We want the pedals for $50 or less. We're not going to purchase them for $100 or more. We want TWO pedals for $100! Come on, bozos, lol!

"Purchase and own simultaneously" - This guy cracks really me up :)

Always liked my BBE 427, now I feel validated and will certainly continue to enjoy it. Thank you!

I love the DOD Flanger. I almost forgot I used to own one. I had a Boss Flange too. I loved both of them. The Boss was more edgy and kind of in your face. It's a sweet flanger. But the DOD had it's own thing going. It could get pretty crazy, too. But the beautiful thing about it was the way you could dial in a lot of flange but it would still have a kind of softness to it that made it perfect for some situations that the Boss wasn't good for. Great pedal! Glad to see it in the list.

The Man Who is one of my favorite albums! Every song is great!

Title of the video should be pedals that doubled or tripled in price after Josh showed everyone how cool they are.

Hey Josh, I really enjoy your videos, thanks for the "record time" section of this video, I haven't heard TRAVIS before and I really like it when I did, thanks for sharing

The deadbeat delay is so good. I use it for a slap delay (in my ska punk band) and as a long delay when I’m playing ambient music by myself. It is unbelievably good and versatile for the price. The foot switch is a little noisy but I run it through a looper so I have no problem with that
