JHS Pedals PackRat - overdrive- Distortion - Fuzz
Product information "JHS Pedals PackRat - overdrive- Distortion - Fuzz"
In 1978 the Proco RAT was invented in Kalamazoo, one of the most versatile and influential distortion pedals of all time. The JHS PackRat - Overdrive- Distortion- Fuzz is the ultimate homage to the over 40-year development of the Proco RAT and its influence on guitar tone. Artists from all genres have used the iconic sounds from this humble black box to create their tones, including Nirvana, John Scofield, Pink Floyd, Metallica, REM, the Eagles, Jeff Beck and Radiohead. The operation of the JHS PackRat - Overdrive- Distortion- Fuzz is extremely simple. The Volume control sets the overall level of the pedal, the Distortion control adjusts the amount of distortion, and the Filter control brightens or darkens the sound. When you change the Sound Mode, the analogue circuitry is adapted to the chosen setting.

The story of JHS Pedals began in 2007 at the desk of Joshua Heath Scott, known as Josh, who wanted to repair his Blues Driver pedal. He then developed an interest in effects pedals and their circuits, repaired and modified his friends' stompboxes and eventually began selling modified Boss pedals under the name JHS Mods in a local music shop. A year later he started selling his own pedal creations and renamed the brand JHS Pedals.
The name JHS Pedals still stands for high quality, inventiveness and distinctive designs. Josh Scott has since assembled a large team of pedal enthusiasts who share his passion for effects and assist him in building and designing his pedals. As a result, new additions appear regularly in the already extensive JHS Pedals range. Among the brand's best-known representatives are the Morning Glory overdrive, the Muffuletta fuzz and the pedals of the 3 Series.
