I bought a FAB distortion pedal very cheaply at a pawn shop years ago and hated it, relegated to the "Drawer of Disappointment" (that drawer full of broken/sub-par effects pedals, faulty leads etc). But I'd only ever used it with my Stratocaster. I then watched the JHS episode on the Danelectro FAB series and decided to give it another shot. I tried it with a Les Paul copy I've got and it sounded fantastic. It's now sitting along with all the pedals that aren't on my pedalboard, but are there for recordings etc. It's now officially a "rescue pedal". Now I've got to try it with the bass. Thanks for the tip!

The sitar swami is the first sitar simulator I've ever seen...and as far as I can tell it's the only pedal to come with a slide, which had the swami sticker on it. I have that.

I know right! This guy gives me the feeling that he's waiting to get jumped or punked any second now. He double laughs (almost uncomfortably) at a lot of things Josh says before Josh has completed the actual statement, and has said anything of consequence or worthy of a laugh. This guy is clearly sharp, and knows how to negotiate for more money, and also knows when to jump on a new trend and ride the new income wave like he was Kelly Slater. He also apparently has his ear to the tracks and is reading the pulse of the market and the feedback from the players and entire community... so major kudos to that highly respectable trait. I don't think any of us are going to go to China, find the factory, then talk to the factory heads and ask them to verify the story of the the major "bone-head" decision to preorder all those parts, but I get a feeling some of this story happened a little differently and that the Chinese would probably never do this (though it is definitely possible) and this was a good way cover up an ill advised decision that a guy high on sales and success made at a time when the market was effing crazy and there were several million kids in the US with disposable income from either their parents or part time jobs, and they were all being turned on to fads quicker than ever before and at a larger scale thanks to the internet. This story also made Steve and his company seem less like a money hungry shyster and more like a victim trying to fix someone else's mistake when he was demanding small mom and pops buy in at a minimum order of 100 if they wanted to be a part of the Danelectro craze. I don't disagree with his right to do that in a free market, and i'm glad he could, but there is also a side of me that screams thats unethical to a tiny degree. There are barely even 100 guitars in the town I live in, so no way any local store could move that quantity in a 5 year period (according to another viewers post, they haggled with him to bring it down to a much more reasonable 20 guitars... so i'm totally fine with him asking a high # if he's willing to work with people that took the time to actually conduct proper business). This is the second time in this video I've posted a somewhat unfavorable comment about Steve, but I do want to make it clear that I do respect a lot of what he's doing and what he has done for the music community and I most definitely respect his drive, but this is a free country and I can freely express my opinion when I get a somewhat off feeling about someone. Regardless of everything else said, he showed a little respect and courage by coming on this show, and that's commendable even if it was only a business decision. I definitely want to thank Josh and JHS for getting him on, doing this story, and sharing such quality informative content.

A Fab Flange was the first pedal I ever modded and re-housed, and led to me buying a BYOC ping pong echo kit, which led to me now building pedals from scratch. Thanks Danelectro, if I didn't have a $20 pedal to take a chance on, I'd have never found that I had a love for tweaking and building pedals, and electronics in general! That pedal is actually still on my board 7 years later!

Cool video as always. I love how you, as the owner of a pedal company, give a platform to other companies. Its like me telling my friends and fans of other bands I like. This is how scenes and markets grow in a positive way. Lets face it, nobody buys one pedal, we buy multiples. Also I have a Danelecto hodad bass sitting in the corner, this makes me wanna clean the electronics on it and play it out again one of these days.

This was absolutely great, kudos to the whole JHS team! Happy new year!

What a beautiful video. The respect you guys have for each other. Keep making beautiful pedals JHS and Danelectro

your story is my story, and in fact we're the same age even tho I live on the other side of the Atlantic. More than twenty years ago, thanks to Danelectro a cash strapped 15 yo teenager who was roughly able to strum some Nirvana chords, was finally able to assemble his first beat-up pedalboard. And back then, that meant simply everything.

This was a great video that tells a great story. Like Josh, I first got into electrics & pedals when Dano was first relaunched (my first electric guitar was a Telecaster but in the store it was between the tele and Dano U2 reissue).

Josh your videos are always amazing, but I found this one especially FUN!! Absolutely brilliant editing, music, and showcase of the 2 new Danelectro pedals. You guys are what I look forward to all week. Thanks for making the industry so so fun, attainable, and inclusive.

Great video, Josh. Tanx for doing this 🤘🏽

I've kept two of the 90's-era pedals: the Daddy-O is still amazing as ever (my one has over 1000 gigs on it) and the PB&J delay mini pedal is a wonderful cross between a Echoplex and a Carbon Copy, and I gigged many gigs with that one too! Fabulous pedals!

I do love all the riffs you play -- very inspiring and worth swiping.

The part about the Danelectro parts being hidden in chicken coops in south jersey! There was a legend about somebody related to the company doing this to keep MCA from getting the parts. I knew the guy he's talking about who had the trademark. He was known as THE Danelectro guy. He had a guitar shop and put together Danelectros with new old stock! He went around buying up any Danelectro products from every music store in the region. Pretty neat story.
