It is basically a Tech-21 Blonde Clone which is modeled from the Black-Face amplifiers which include the Deluxe Reverb all the way through to Tweed Fender amps. This demo of the Joyo American Sound pedal has the pedal plugged directly into my computer interface/sound card so there's no other amp being mic'd up. This is an amplifier emulation pedal so the idea is, you can use this to record with instead of a microphone and a Fender amp. This makes it perfect for recording or live shows as a backup "amp".

I love how players get great tone from low cost gear. Well done!
I can't believe how close this gets to the real thing. Who knew the best American tones came from China?!?!
That's just plain dumb.
@@J.C... shut yo ass
@@J.C... I laughed though
Mine arrived today. Amazing how good it sounds on its own, I tried adding a TC spark in front of it and a new level of wonders were unlocked.
One of my favourite pedals ever! I love it!
This pedal is simply amazing for the price in what it can do. If you're a guitar player that has minimalist approach in terms of gear i cannot sterss enough on how good this pedal does it's job. My rig for live gigs is the following: DS1 -> NUX CH-3 -> DD7 -> JOYO American sound -> MOOER Shimverb and straight into the mixer or a sound card and that's it! It's definitely the best choice I made without busting the bank.
Hi Shane! Thank you so much for your rewiews, always worth checking out before buying any new gear. In this case I just couldn't believe my ears, but once again, you were right. Mine has just arrived, and it truly sounds amazing. And if it wasn't for you... Thanks again!
I bought this pedal as soon as I heard both your videos. It's pretty cool (and inexpensive) and works great when I'm recording through my computer. It also works well on stage when I want to tweak the EQ on my DRRI.
Got my Joyo American today. Breathtaking. I had been going into a Sweat Cream then to the Tone City Reverb, Tone City Delay, then to my decimator then to an A/DA-GSC-2 Cab Sim then out to the PA. I needed an Amp to bracket the A/DA-GSC-2 on the other end. My thinking was I would then have my Amp setting the base clean tone, then the Sweet Cream would take off. I was right. Even without the Sweet Cream on, the clean tone from the Joyo with the Tone City Reverb has me wanting to play Lenny all day. Adding the Sweet Cream just fills the room with bliss. I feel like I can add maybe a Golden Plexi and have it set up essentially as my lead boost pedal. I already have the Tone City Chorus on the way. I'm almost done. Maybe a compressor. Best sounding rig I've ever had now that the Joyo sits in front setting the base tone for the rest of the Pedals. I did move my decimator right after the Joyo. It doesn't make a peep
Wow, that's impressive for such an affordable pedal. Nice video. Well done! Your comments are intelligent and articulate. Thanks!
THANKS SHANE !
BOUGHT THIS PEDAL AFTER WATCING YOUR REVIEW, YOU ARE 100 %
THIS PEDAL SOUNDS AMAZINGLY LIKE FENDER ! AWESOME WORK MAN !
Hi Shane, today I received one of this pedals...
unbelievable sound, and the price is just ridiculous...
thanks for this review Shane, now I do have a backup for the amp in case a tube blows or anything.
Damn I love this pedal, I’m extremely impressed with it and it’s my main pedal at the moment.
The Best Demo review ever! 👏👏👏
Bought this recently and was delivered today (12/5/2021). This pedal is LEGIT!!!!!!! The hype is real!!! I tested mine this evening with a Roland JC-55. I only used the JC reverb and the pedal. Awesome "Blackface tones" and decent "Tweed tones". Nice overdrive on this. This is a steal for $35!!!
Ok. Wow. To my ears through my headphones it sounds super close to the real deal. I guess I'm going to have to buy one. Wow. Great job Shane. I also enjoyed your blind A/B test on this thingy as well and I thought the A was the amp. Which turns out sounded nicer than the amp in that shot.
Just got one of these and they are great, playing into a small clean amp, lovely. Cheers Shane!
solid state or tube?
Love this pedal American Sound. Clears up the strings.
That sounds really, really great. I have the British Sound pedal, which is geared toward Marshall tones and I couldn't be happier. It has become the foundation for my sound. It really is amazing. I may have to get the American too, thanks to you. :)
I play my British Sound through the PA. I wonder why anyone uses amps any more.
Great demo Shane nice work as usual I already have the California sound and just purchase this today based on your demo thanks again you really have a good year which I appreciate... It seems like everything you recommend is a no brainer and no risk because if you endorse it I end up liking it as well Thanks for your honesty and integrity
Great demo,have ordered the pedal.Thanks.
Nice video. I have the vintage overdrive and tremolo from joyo and I gotta say they sound really good.
I'm a late bloomer - Just got mine and love it. THANKS !!
Excellent demo! It's amazing the kind of gear you can get for so little $ these days! I was wondering if you've ever had similar experience with JOYO's Vox sound-alike. I have that one and it sounds superb, to my ears.
What a great pedal sounds superb
I have a huge request called "Budget amp tuning" episode . There are lot of guys like me who started guitar journey with cheap equipment. As long as modyfing guitar is relatively easy, amps are something more complicated. I am user of fender 85 SS amp but i wanted to go into more valvy/ less transistory sound. I found out Tech21 and its cheap alternative Joyo American Sound (30 $) . Putting this pedal into my efects loop absolutely changed my tone. I know that analog pedal in ss amp is not exactly what gives you tube amp but in this case i felt in love with that sound.I would love to see episode in which you take just normal SS amp and try to get as much as posible from it using for example Joyo pedals. Of course you can always buy tube amp, but is some countries 600 $ is two mounths sallary. I know you are professional but you impact a lot of home-amatours with rather limited budget. Thanks :)
I use the American to record directly into my Tascam.. I usually go guitar, tuner, wah, OD, delay, reverb than the American..
Sounds great..
Also use it as an OD pedal b4 my soul food OD... with my Hot Rod Deluxe..
Pedal snobs are missing out...
Since I've never played one of the Fender amps it's supposed to emulate, I can't speak to how close it gets, but I can say it sounds great on various settings. If nothing else, it works as a great clean boost.
Excellent sound...must get one to pair with my Strat. Great vid mate :)
About a year ago, I bought the American and the British. I eventually sold the British because it lacked the sparkle & presence of a real Marshall amp. However, the American sounds fantastic.
Sometimes I even run it into my little Peavey Vypyr 15(set to Deluxe clean) for low volume practice and it still sounds great. You would think running it into a little digital amp would defeat the purpose but no... It remains dynamic, punchy, sparkly & warm. It's almost like playing thru a small tube amp.
Anyway, Big props to Tech21 for their amazing design and big props to Joyo for making it so affordable.
Sounds Amazing. They got it very close
I use the Joyo American Sound as preamp direct into the return effects loop (using just the power-amp). The sound may be affected by the speaker of the amp, but eq and voice knobs are very responsive, so it's not really a problem.
I use the Joyo jf-11 equalizer to crank it for solos.
No hiss, just plug&play. A little bit dry, so you need a short delay or a reverb.
The result is: no more heavey stuffs to carry, just the guitar and the pedal board. I bought a Crate GX-65 for 60euros for little gigs in case there is no amp (I just care about the power-amp as I said).
Thank you Shane for your review, you made me make the right choise.
Old comment I know, but thanks... I've been looking for something to run directly into a EL34 power amp. Glad to hear this works.
I still use it as my main amp: Joyo American Sound + Electro Harmonix 44 Magnum + handmade cabinet with 12' speaker.
super cool. That's a really portable setup.
Cool demo bro
Shane would love to see you do a video on your approach to recording song demo's - pertaining to how you get your bed tracks together, live canned - whatever your approach is. Thanks
I just pulled this out of storage. I almost forgot that I got it years ago for Christmas but at the time I had shit amps. Now I play the Classic Vibe strat (looks like the one Frusciante plays) through Silver trim Bandit.
I need one of these to go with my new bullet strat. I have the joyo British petal and I love it.. Run it right into my little 5 channel mixer to my 10 in PA and if I need I can put on my headphones and jam away and not tic off the family lol
Hello,
I have quite alot of pedals and have the delays then reverb at the end...where is the best
place for this amp modellng pedal?
Great demo! I was wondering if I need this, as I already have the California Sound pedal, which I guess emulates a Mesa/Boogie? It was ridiculously cheap... Whatever it is I love it, if only for the massive amount of fine tuning you can do with all the knobs. But this one sounds even better! Looking forward to playing around with it soon. Thanks!
Hey, after watching your videos I bought the pedal and it's amazing indeed!
Question: which input of your soundcard did you use? Line in, Mic in or Instrument?
Thanks for your time, keep up the great work!
Pretty damn close indeed ! Affordable as well. Thx for the vid - cheers.
Thanks :)
How would this sound chained in front of one of the mini Cab simulation DI pedals they have out now?
Sounds great so far. How does it clean up by rolling off the guitar's volume? How about dynamics?
if i plug this into my deluxe reverb reissue 1965 will i get the drive tones at volumes that arent deafening?
2:20 sounds very similar to a demo a guy did on a Fender 75 amp head. So yeah, this thing is very Fender authentic. Can't believe only hearing of this pedal today. Gotta get one
It sounds absolutely sweet. I'd like to know your opinion on how it sounds through a vox ac15 though. I've got a vox, but what do you reckon of using this pedal in front of a vox as an overdrive type pedal? cheers.
Hi! This sounds great!! Do u think i can use it with a carl martin rockbug?
Thank you for the review - one question: did you use ANY kind of NOISE reduction/gate (during/after recording)?
Tech21 made only a very limited batch of a "Deluxe" version of the Blonde; it had the same analog circuit, with added digital control and the ability to store presets (much like the SansAmp PSA-1, or TC's Nova Drive, they use digital volume controls as digitally-controlled variable resistances). That's the only feature I miss in the American Sound. Joyo should make a Deluxe version!!!
Hi, Shane. This works great in conjunction with a bullet mic when I play harmonica (with the Joyo plugged right into the PA board). Is there any reason why I can't use this with an amp cabinet when I want to use it with my guitar?
My pal had them all, but The American Sound was the one I went for. Well worth the money. I use it for the crunch or just a boost. Not tried it straight into a PA...
Hello, would I need a DI box after the amp to plug it into a mixer? Thanks.
Thanks very much for doing this video Shane. I bought the joyo after watching this and think it is amazing. I like your style and enjoy your videos man.
Take it easy
Hello from Argentina!
For home use, is it convenient to use this pedal instead of connecting the guitar directly to the interface and use plugins? Is there a difference? Thank you very much for the video
Hi Shane,
How were you using the amp sim? Through a PA or running through an amps' clean tone? I'm thinking of getting one but running through a Bugera V22. Thoughts?
Hi! Great video! Thanks! Where do you suggest it's best to put the other pedals? Before or after the Am Sound?
Whats the best way to get a better tone? Going through the input or to return?
mine is fantastic but really noisy with single coils. Could be a defect of mine. Does your make noise?
Will it work if I plug the pedal straight to headphone, so it works as a quite practice tool?
How can you not venture into what sounds great but designed to pretty much
bring identity of a period of amps being introduced and thereby becoming ''Legends''!!!
All up for it I distinctly heard a simulated 5E3 Tweed Deluxe cranked up and with an injection of reverb imagine if you will a Bassman possibly a Tweed Fender Twin with slightly more hair on the midrange breakup.Heck I plugged in with a TC ''Hall of Fame Reverb'' and a BOSS TR-2 (with the upgrades of a Frommel kit) and it was a Hybrid of magic lending itself also to a late '60s Ampeg GV-22 cranked to 12! Beautifully engineered to bring in Marshall tones as well! I also have the AC Tone version that bad boy I hooked up a Gretsch discontinued Pro Jet with TV Jones Classics, sounding every bit of a VOX AC30 with a Beatles era toned Ricky and Tom Petty/Birds ''Top Boost''! These pedals are really imaginatived producing several voicings and not embarrassed to say it all comes from pedals/preamps ''Engines'' for well under $50.00. Well worth the efforts and investing for studio/recording! Now to set up a reliable pedal board for gigging,indulging yourself with key operatives and the magic has only just started!!! A nice Moen ''Shaky Jimi'' MO-VB Univibe/Tremolo pedal(s) for under $50.00 and you won't believe the world of music and what you can accomplish with literally no limits!!
Shane: terrific video, as usual. ***Would you consider making a video of this pedal with a bass played through it?*** I believe this would work terrifically for bass, and there are no videos of this anywhere (that I can find).
I use it live in the fx loop of my boss gt8 or with other pedals with no amp, straight to the mixer for clean sounds. It sounds like there's an expensive amp on stage but no, just my pedal board. Once I did a gig with this pedal only and my guitar, cleaning up with the guitar volume. That's being lazy but it works. And it's dirt cheap...
hey, will it work plugged in to an acoustic amp (Like fender acoustasonic 90)? thanks!!!
i have this pedal and love it
What about the clean sound? I can use any overdrive pedal for drive sound
Good job
Mate, how much do you spend in importing pedals each month? Great video, thx.
Hi Shane. I hope you can reply this message. I'm a fan of your demo's and mostly buy a pedal upon seeing your demos. I have a question on my recently purchased American Sound. Which location on the board suits best for this mighty pedal? After Overdrives and Next to Modulations,Delays? or Last in the chain?Thanks in advance.
After watching a few reviews and seeing this on Amazon for £9.77 (new) I couldn't resist. I eagerly await it's arrival from China in a week or two. :)
Just found this vid. Wow a backup amp in a pedal.
Would you need a speaker simulator if you ran it direct to PA ?
can i plug that in my audio interface behringer umc22?
Have you tried using this into a cab sim like the Palmer PDI09? How does it sound? Does it sound too beefy?
Hi great video but I just wonder why didnt you try and show how it sounds in full clean mode? Well I used to have a fender deluxe but I sold it, so I need an amp emulation pedal sounds like it. I dont see a big difference between fender sound and this pedal, but I really really wonder what happens if I add my big muff pi or brit combo from boss. Local stores dont have this pedal, I cant try it myself, gotta buy it online...
And my second question is, can I plug in directly to the stage system? I mean directly to the mixer without any amp or cabinet?
Thanks...
Usually clean is easy for solid state devices which is why I went for more gain. It does clean no problems at all I use it all the time for recording and swear by it.
intheblues Well, thank you :)
does it emulare the squash compression my vintage super reverb has ?
what do you think about playing the American sound into a VOX amp (like ac15), or in a really different amp? D'you you think it's a good match or a chaotic choise?
Shane- that sounds amazing. I'm a little confused on the amp simulator concept- is it really intended to only plug into your computer? I have a small Fender Champ 600 and was wondering if I could use them together to get killer tweed tones while maintaining a low bedroom volume level to maintain peace in the house- what are your thoughts?
You can plug it into whatever you want. A PC, the front of an amp, the fx loop return/power amp, or whatever. There is no right or wrong way to use them.
Could you get that flabby blues deluxe sound out of this?
sounds great just like a Fender Stratocaster must sound
hi...i watch most of your review. got a question about these amp sim pedals, where do i put them in my pedal chain? do i put them at the end. or after my distortions before my chorus/delays? thanks!
At the end I think, like your amp would be lol
If you play primarily ambient music, I’d suggest the pedal going before delays and reverbs to not muddy those effects with extra gain/dirt. If you play primarily rock music without much ambience, I’d put the pedal at the end. It’s subjective.
The general rule is usually: amp after anything that alters the EQ (Wah, EQ pedal, compressor, Dirt, modulation) but before time based effects. But someone like EVH put his modulation effects and sometimes his delays at the front of his chain to have very dirty phaser, flanger, delays and reverbs going into distortion and then into the amp.
Experiment. The beauty of this pedal is that it’s small and you can just switch where it is on a pedal board easily enough.
do you need a cab sim if running straight into a mixer?
Hey timstiga!
I use it through a Vox AC15C1 and I like it as an overdrive/boost!
what if you already have a vintage american fender tube amp?will it gvi eyou the tone at lower volumes basically?
Does it sound better direct than a multi-fx like the Zoom G1X four ?
Where should this go in the order of pedals on the board? I have Electro-Harmonix Holy Grail, EH-C9, Qtron, Donner Alpha Cruncher. thanks! :)
Hi bro, just want to know what happened if we turn off the drive knob, is the pedal still sound clean or there is no sound at all?
esse pedal é show !!
I'm having a hard time hearing the difference between this and the the Caline Overdrive. I suppose there's more control with this one. But what would you say the main differences are between these two orange overdrives?
(As an aside, I'm thinking of building a pedalboard with nothing but orange pedals. For some reason, all my favorite pedals comes in orange enclosures lately.)
which spring reverb plug-in is that? sounds great!
That riff you play at 2:00. I've heard it so much in your demos that I find myself playing it now.....
haha thanks mate, that's an original tune called Too Little Too Late :)
I would love to hear what an xotic ep boost would sound like ran through this if you ever get the chance. Ty.
could use it as a dist pedal, for example I have the joyo bantam as a amp, and I don not if it is possible to use the joyo american as a dist. what do you think?
Hey, Shane, can this be used with headphones?
Can this sound good clean with an acoustic guitar?
Bd2 into this sounds dope
can i use joyo american sound with boss me-5?
Mexican strat, donner blues driver, joyo American, into a clean katana 50 mk2, with a bit of reverb . Getting some sweet tones for a verry modest budget.
Sounds like Joyo Bantamp Blue jay? Which do you prefer? I'm from BRazil, I've been loving your channel
I just got one and yes this is the real deal, I am putting it through a 74 silverface twin and this is amazing I might get another one light distortion on one more gain on the other, will see in a week if I still love it but this is good
Meant to say I listened to this vid a couple of weeks and ordered one.
BLACKSNAKEGUITAR Awesome stuff, thanks for the nice comments. :)
So being analog it’s quite different from a kemper profiler, right?
Just placing an order for one.
