49:15 when Josh talks about how the delay went from DD3 to DD5, it made me smile because I lived in Japan for 4 years during my Air Force days. The number 4 is pronounced し(shi but sounds like she). The word 死んだ(shin da) means death. The Japanese have even created an alternate pronunciation of 4 よん(yon). I even started feeling superstitious of 4 after being there for 4 years.

This is a somewhat incorrect characterization. 「死んだ」in Japanese is a past tense conjugation of 「死ぬ」。Also, it's not really accurate to say that the Japanese have created an alternate pronunciation of 四。Japanese existed as a language prior to the adoption of Chinese characters. The "shi" reading of 四 is the Chinese reading. The native Japanese word for "4" was always "yo(n)".
He derailed completely at the Soul Food "explanation" of the pedal's name and that's why we love Josh haha

If this hasn’t been mentioned yet with regard to the “El Capistan” It’s named after a tape machine part! “What is capstan on tape player? The capstan is a rotating spindle used to move recording tape through the mechanism of a tape recorder. The tape is threaded between the capstan and one or more rubber-covered wheels, called pinch rollers, which press against the capstan, thus providing friction necessary for the capstan to pull the tape.”

In Japanese, the number 4 is "shi" which is also the reading for the Kanji for "death", so sometimes the number 4 is skipped over because of that connotation. Boss is a Japanese company. So, now you know why Boss only has one model with "4" in it.

The parent company Roland also have a similar thing with model numbers - the whole x0x nomenclature for drum machines/synths/samplers etc misses out 404. I guess the doubling up of 4 really would have been too much. They have a few very notable exceptions, namely the Jupiter 4, the newer sh-4d (where the original analogue synths went sh1, 2, 3, 5,) and then they did produce a Vdrum TD-4 module. Those last 2 are both much more recent pieces of gear though, so perhaps the current generation are less superstitious. Interestingly Korg have a!so sidestepped using 4 in their Kaoss Pad range. They had the KP1, KP2, KP3 and then their fourth incarnation was a play on the fact it used 4 effects in series so they called it the KPQuad, so it's kind of a KP4 without writing a number 4 on there.

This is surprisingly insane even for Josh.
Josh is the best. Being who he is makes me want to buy JHS pedals to support his company.
I have to say Josh, I simply love your sense of humour 😂 I not only leaned a lot about pedal history and circuits through the whole video, but laughed like never before. Congrats and don’t change!
This is insane, incredible and already one of my favourite videos about guitar pedals ever.
I surprised myself by watching the whole episode - Josh is a a star and somehow he makes a show just about lots and lots of pedals so engaging…! And he is so humble despite making so many star products. Honestly not usually my thing, but then 1.5 hrs later…I’ve watched it all…wow.
They chose the most apt person to do this episode! loved it.
I have an older version of the Line 6 floor pod and absolutely love it. It is so versatile, a little overwhelming to use at first, but once you understand how to set it up, it is amazing.
Truly enjoyed this video. Always great to hear and learn from Josh. I think he needs to be on television, I can see him in a sitcom. Cool sense of humor. All in all, great video! 🙏🏼
thanks for this! Josh's knowledge is part of the reason why I want to have as many JHS pedals as I possibly can: to help share these stories. That and their amazing sound, of course
Josh is just an awesome human who loves all things pedals but more importantly the people that made them…Well done 👏👏👏
Best video you’ve done so far - an engineering lesson, a history lesson, and advertisement all wrapped in one.
This video was amazing. First time I have listened to Josh, so funny and well informed. Couldn’t stop watching. I just love listening to anyone who is passionate and knowledgable. Gets my musical juices going. Thanks for this!!! I think I could have genuinely listened to all 1,000.
This is off the cuff. It's honest and it's inspiring. I love how this industry, effects pedal Co's., rave on their own competitors because they know good tone when they hear it and great design when they see it. It feels unique to have that kind of admiration among a SEA of metal boxes. Josh Scott has certainly helped lead the charge. Also, Record Time is an underrated segment.
Welp, just added a few pedals to my bucket list. I happen to love Josh's droll and sardonic sense of humor 😄
6:04 fun little story here: about 6 years ago I practiced with my band in the same rehearsal space that Built to Spill used at that time (I live in Boise). BTS being one of our favorite bands we would often geek out over what gear they were using. At the time, Doug’s pedal chain consisted of 3 ep boosts in a row, followed by a vintage memory man into a fender bassman. Basically, and this is fitting with BTS’s guitar sound, huge, Huger, HUGEST. So if you were wondering where all the ep boosts went, ask Doug Martsch (hands down one of the sweetest dudes in the music business).
The coffee scale josh uses never gets old, finally we have a system to measure everything accurately
Josh, this was one of the most entertaining, while, at the same time interesting and informative, guitar related video's I've watched in ages. Great job!
The JHS 3 Series Chorus sounds awesome. Happy to have it on my board. Pretty versatile too with that vibe switch

Yup, I am one of those people I can't say enough good things about the JHS Kilt. Single cols and humbuckers alike, through my Fender amps I get a phenomenal overdrive sound, and versatile. It has remained on my board since I bought it years ago. Awesome pedal, Josh!
To me, Josh is that super cool, youngest uncle that is a smart-ass that everyone can't help but love.
The short-demos of the pedals get an assist here. Josh is awesome.

I’ve grown to really love EHX this past year. I’ve gotten the Glove OD which does a great rock sound. And I really love their Octavix octave fuzz. Sounds very vintage and doesn’t go way over the top like some octave fuzzes do.
I have one of the first 100 Kilts v1. Its on my board and has never come off. It’s absolutely amazing!!!!
I got out of bed this morning and I thought to myself "Hey mate, I know what." "What?" I asked. Graciously and politely I answered "Why don't I begin my day with a nice cup of hot coffee made just the way I like it and watch Josh Scott rabbit on for 1 hour 33 minutes and 1 second about guitar pedals that I may or my not wish to purchase?" I thought to myself "That's a really good idea mate, do it." and I did and then gave the video a thumbs up while pondering why boss does not have a dd-4 or rv-4 pedal.
I'm very happy with the JHS 3 Series Flanger, Compressor, Screamer Phaser, Chorus, Overdrive, Hall Reverb, and Delay Pedals on my first ever pedalboard.
the best video in the history of Sweetwater's youtube channel

Thank you so much for this presentation Josh, and thank you Sweetwater for creating this amazing content! Very involved discussion of the history of these pedals, plus some really fun anecdotes. We love it!
Hilarious! Thanks Josh for taking the time to share your nerdiness!
If you made a full version of it, I would watch it. You're the highest priority to watch on KZread. ✊🏽😍

@Christie Malry Audiobooks It's ok. Great to watch to feed our curiosity. It's like watching football, not all attendees are players or own anything with football. It's great to watch as a fan. 😃
That was so much fun. Tons of surprises. Thanks, guys!
I do not currently own but I have owned and used a DS-1 and a CE-2 (along with about 10 other Boss pedals in the 80s). They were on my home made board for years until I moved on to rack stuff in the late 80s early 90s. Now I enjoy them in my HX FX with analog boutique overdrives (one is a JHS ;) in 4 CM in a tube amp. Far cry from my old board with all those Boss pedals in series into my old Roland JC-120 ;) That was still a glorious sound!
How does Josh know so much, amazing, insane, love of pedals ! Entertaining!
This one is going in my favorites folder. Awesome, funny and informative.
This basically an extend JHS Show episode I'm all here for it.
Josh Scott has turned me on to soooo many things but the Behringer Super Fuzz has been a known sleeper pedal since it came out. I remember being told about it in like 2009.
Can’t believe I just watched an hour and a half of Josh Scott reading a list of pedals. 😂
Just assembling such a fantastic collection is hard core, but presenting all this in a non-stop video, this is like visiting the ultimate museum with the ultimate curator. Very much appreciate all of the detail minutia about these various devices, who created and why . . . never thought pedal lore could be this deep! I have the original Line 6 DL4, it really is the absolute best of its type, comparable perhaps to the Mooer Ocean Machine. Actually had an original Foxx phaser pedal (with the red "flocking"?), sold it to a serious fanatic in Australia.
So good! Loved this. So now I want the "Director's Cut" in which Josh reviews all one thousand of the pedals on the list. I'll watch it in one sitting (though I'd skip the looper pedals). The JHS Bender is an absolute killer. My desert island effects pedal -- if I was forced to only keep one from my whole collection I'd choose this one -- I love its look, and the sound totally rips your head off. The 3 Series Reverb -- and its recent companion, the Hall Reverb -- are phenomenal as well. And affordable! Was surprised by #1. I own one, thanks to Josh, and it's okay. I've used it on a recording that's been released, but it's been back in a drawer ever since.
Cool video! Josh is a great presenter of the history of this pedals. Do some more colaboration with Josh on the same topic, but more detailed, like the most selling delay pedals from Sweetwater or modulation pedals, distortion etc.
This is an amazing video, thanks for doing this (to all involved)! I was entertained and educated! Also, I found some pedals I now “need”. First up will be a JHS Emperor (I am a Arion chorus user).
Shout-out to Sweetwater for assembling and providing this data. Thanks.
This video is amazing… So much knowledge and information. Josh is the Alexandria library of guitar pedals 📖 And his dry humor is so refreshing… And he is the best pedal sales man, in pedal recent history. Impressive 😂
Josh, You use the Morning Glory as an always on pedal. A lot of people do. It's great for that. So can you make a version with a dip switch somewhere that puts the pedal in an always on setting so that the foot switch acts as the gain toggle rather than as a bypass switch? Hope you somehow see this. Thank you.

This is a great idea that would work with a lot of overdrives.

What about a two switch double pedal? One for gain, one for the always on tone. Maybe Separate EQs? Although that’s close to the Double Barrel.
This is such a great service to the pedal community. Josh is awesome!!
So happy to see The Kilt in there! Grateful! Thanks Josh and Sweetwater 🙏
"we literally went from leave it to beaver in 1962 to people on acid in the mud in 69 - the fuzz pedal kind of did that" - Profound statement of the century my friend!!!!!!!!!
The biggest issue with the metal zone is that people don’t realize that the knobs only have a very narrow, very specific, useful range. I think if people knew how to use the pedal it would save a lot of the critiques

People approach it as a Tubescreamer, where the higher you crank that gain/drive, the more it slams midrange to your amp. The original Metalzone has a sensitive gain knob where it's easy to screw up and get to unusable/obnoxious territory, killing your mids in the process. The Waza Craft series fixed that issue, thank goodness.

The active EQ is misunderstood, crazy underrated, and so damn powerful to shape your tone. Love my Metal Zone.

the fact that it only has a small range of settings that are useable shows that it isn’t the best

I think Brian Wampler has made the best overdrive pedal I've ever heard. The 57' Tweed. Really need a Plexi-drive.
Here I am...5 am on a Sunday, drinking coffee and watching 90 minutes of Josh talk pedals and drop knowledge.... I am Entertained...
There's a 0% chance I'm buying any of these, but I'm still going to watch the whole thing because Josh is so knowledgeable and entertaining.
