Josh said I HAVE to get the super fuzz.. I need $30 from you guys so I can get one...
That "vintage tube overdrive" ain't no overdrive...
It's flat out distortion...
thirsty ahh post
Just this cringy price for switchback... Maybe release DIY like Notaklon to bring price down to £115? xD
Behringer pedals are our saviors here in Brazil, "real" label pedals are INSANELY expensive, but then comes Behringer with a pricing of something like 1/4 of the original pedal cost.
Pse, n vou pagar 900 reais num pedal que tem uma cópia quase simalar por 300 kkkk as vzs fica fora do saldo pra manter o vicio em música
That's great I'm so happy for you guys!
And your women are beautiful, Ana Beatriz Barros , Adriana Lima....
But then they break
@@dystortia6626 the women or the pedals? :(
@@giovannidaher337 últimos pedais que comprei foi hand made, mais barato, e construção superior aos importados. Sem gastar uma fortuna e tendo um pedal de extrema qualidade, esses berinjela aí nunca mais!
I need to buy a JHS pedal to honor his unselfish presentations of other manufacturers gear.
Dale Rieger - Agreed. I truly respect a man who’s not afraid to tip his hat to others in his field. It not only shows that he’s not threatened, but secure in his own abilities. It also shows his true passion for what he does .
Cool dude!
Ahmen to that! Much respect to his research and unbiased info!
my thoughts exavctley! I wish everyone in our business was like him !
Dale Rieger - also agreed. He is a person who wants to educate guitarists, not just make money. He deserves his success.
I couldn't be any more impressed with how genuine this guy is.
Genuine. China pedals are built on slave labor.
Tell me you're confident in your own brand without telling me: Proceeds to recommend competing brands.
@@vladimirpoutine7522 He has to be. Because JHS's whole thing is copying and modifying pedals. It would be hypocritical to not be so (despite the fact that he hates behringer's existence).
He wants his cake and eat it too, and he absolutely gets to do so by tricking people like you and Allison with this psychology. Good luck!
@@SuomiHamalainen None of that info is secret information. We all know that's exactly what he does and it's 100% legal. Hence why Behringer exists in the first place. Nothing wrong with it. And it's not a matter of being 'tricked', people like the sounds they like. My preferred brands are Digitech and DOD. Is what it is.
@@vladimirpoutine7522 "Nothing wrong with it"
Yes there is. You take a company's product, make a one to one replica, and give it a different name.
It's like if I copied all of the game files for a GTA game, put it on a new CD and changed the cover art and title.
It's a different story if the pedal isn't available anymore and the company is not around or doesn't make it.
But for stuff like the Ibanez TS9, Big muff, Proco rat, and others. It's not right to flat out copy it and many other pedals, toss them into one pedal and sell it
Just sold a JHS unicorn V2 to a customer today and one of the honest selling points I mentioned was how transparent and supportive Josh is in the music community. People appreciate genuineness. I mean, the second I plugged the unicorn in, the pedal spoke for itself and she was sold on it immediately, but still.
Great pedal I a/b it against a fulltone dejavibe and a mxr and I grabbed the Unicorn it sounds awesome
This dude got it: If you are elegant and charming enough when talking about other people's products, then people will buy yours. Gibson could learn a thing or two here.
Well said!
Correct!
Yeah, if you are all those things, you MIGHT also find yourself the (humbly surprised of course) recipient of CASE upon CASE upon CASE of all those re-issue chips, components, and parts which were also mentioned in a full-shoutout format prior to the 'meat n potatoes' of the video!.... Kinda feels like one of those times when you are forced to ask for help from a complete blowhard you swore never to associate with, because of his/her control of or ability to access a thing you need INDEFINITELY but absolutely CANNOT procure ANY other way, and so, you ask, and just as you expected, they are all too pleased to help..... BUT!! This is what they're gonna need you to do 1st!.... Do it, and you can have all of whatever BS you requested.......
And THAT ladies and gentlemen, is how s$%# like THIS comes to be!
Thanks for those thumbs guys!

Good job, dude. You seem to be already aware that people who do timestamps or subtitles are heroes of the people.
@@rippspeck thanks! Actually I'm new to the biz. I'm not one of those seasoned pros who do this for a living. If you ever asked how those heroes are made, they just step up to the task
A Behringer jetpack lol
@Julian Vargas curiously enough, I don't own a single Behringer pedal, or even a JHS for that matter! :/
Slight mistake, you wrote "UM300 vs. BOSS HM-2", the UM300 was the MT-2 Metal Zone copy (and from what Josh said it's the same thing), the HM300 was the HM-2 copy. Great list otherwise. =)
Honestly, the price of Behringer pedals is what put me off trying them in the first place because I just assumed something SO much cheaper than its competitor had to be a dud. This was really informative, and you've got yourself a subscriber. Cheers!
The reason they can make stuff this cheap is because you save design, development and testing when all you have to do is buy a product and send it to your China factory and tell them to make a cheap as possible copy. It’s really no wonder.
they are duds, though. they break sooner than later. they're fine if you're a bedroom/studio person.
@@beelbrother1648 to be honest have you ever seen a video of a guitarist showing how his or her cheap "crappy" behringer pedal snapped to pieces while playing? I i haven't so far. Not saying that they won't but.....
@@leonline3424 i mean, i could make a video of my broken behringer delay pedal but what would be the point of that? i think behringer is an awesome company. they offer alternative options for people who can't afford a $2000 synth, etc. and their higher-end pedals are very decent. but their $20--$30 budget pedals are just junk.
I used to respect behringer however I have come to realise the treatment of its workers and also the way they rip off products and while I will likely be buying their products just because I cannot afford anything else i will be buying second hand as to avoid supporting the company and i think that employee well-being should not be sacrificed to offer affordable products.
I honestly think that I could watch this guy give his take on vacuum cleaners. Just classic.
he basically does in the dod video when he covers the buzz box lol
Ha I totally agree with you. He'd probably make a great washing machine salesman as well
Funniest part, is that I own 4 Behringer pedals...and ALL of them sound “better” after watching this video.
Confirmation bias.
Zimphire I think most of us suffer from this one way (expensive) or the other (inexpensive).
I've been through a good three or four distortion pedals and the behringer heavy distortion was both the cheapest one and the best sounding one I've owned. The only one I didn't sell or give away besides the DS1 (cause everyone's gotta have a DS1 😂)
Behringer gets a lot of hate, and while every company has a lemon now and again... Behringer isn't half bad at all.
If you aren’t touring hard and abusing the pedal the Behringer pedals should be fine.
If they are however made by the ChiComs I’d not buy any. At least not more than you already have.
The only gear I've ever had problems with is JHS... the problem being that the owner is such a kind, likable person that even if I don't need one, I want to buy all of them. This is a company that everyone should support!
Yes its refreshing how he bigs up the competition. Maybe this is the new way of selling! He definitely earns your trust.
Suffer Fools Did you read the rest of his comment?
Jhs is all about the gear world coming together for the musician
I remember the Gear Page or one of those forums trying to smear him a few years ago. Something about his church. People are ridiculous.
We need a "support group" for this JHS problem before it gets out of control.
Two of my three pedals are Behringer, they are the TO800 and the SF300 and I use both of them all of the time with the overdrive on and the SF300 on the boost setting and it is AMAZING
Update: I now have 3 out of 6 pedals that are Behringer
boost? wym? it's just a boost then? i love 1st setting on it, also try "mode 1.5" where the switch is stuck in between two.modes😂
i wanted the to800 and sf300, are they worth it?
@@sgtdeathsquad76 yeah, the to800 is still my main overdrive pedal and the sf300 is a nice fuzz but an incredible boost for solos and lead parts
You have to be the coolest guitar guy on TH-cam. So much knowledge and you go out of your way to provide positive reviews on effects pedals built by other companies. Thank you.
Pros: save thousands of dollars
Cons: looks like a happy meal boss pedal
Does that matter if it sounds good? If people are more interested in what's on your board than the sounds you're making with it, well... damn.
That's kind of the whole premise of the joke, It's ridiculous to turn down a pedal over looks.
@@runlarryrun77 It matters, if they break more easily. That said, I'm gonna pick up a couple of Behringers next week having seen this video.
Ima get some and just re-house em.
@@brownhooque Yeah I really want to gut a moog ep-3 or lower end crybaby and pop the the vintage delay in it and place the speed pot where the pot for the expression part of the pedal used to be for a dedicated spaceship pedal.
About 9 years ago, i bought a Heavy Metal Behringer pedal for less than 30$. I actually wanted a Boss pedal since my guitar teacher was using one but the price was way off my budget ( I was only 16 back then). My teacher said that the only difference between these two is you can basically stomp the shit out of Boss since the casing is made out of metal. 9 years and thousands of hours later, my Behringer pedal still works as good as the first day I bought it.
That's what I keep telling people who bitch about the plastic housing. It's the same plastic they use for power tools. I don't hear any contractors complaining about how weak the housing of their drills are.
Just don't drop your drill from a rooftop 4 dozen times and you'll be fine.
Plastic lasts forever so the enclosure is never a problem!
German product my friend.
back when i was a makita warrior installing comercial HVAC systems, id drop the companys drill off a 10ft ladder & quickly step down 2 steps & catch it & run some screws in. i got quite good at it, heck, even started drawing a larger crowd....... until the owner did his walk-about the jobsite one fine day...
Josh's face during the "but youre sitting there going MORE metal zone" is the best thing on this channel
I've had a Behringer DD400 for like 10yrs now - never took it off my board and its still going. The chassis doesnt have so much as a crack and of course the sound still holds up
I love it when he switches between the pedals but it just sounds exactly the same
Actually it doesn't, there are several differences
@@nicolasdeletroz1196 no
@@nicolasdeletroz1196 - not the ones that were DEAD ON
@@nicolasdeletroz1196 not the vibrato and Tubescreamer circuits. Both were dead on.
I could hear differences in the harmonics sustain or subtle feedback.... some (at least one) surprisingly seemingly better... I have never liked the behringer brand, but have never tried them either... its kind of a bad "before taste" effect... but every behringer pedal showed here had a great sound.. especially good for the price...
I think this video might be the best free advertisement that Behringer has ever gotten. I kinda want to get a few of these now.
.. the case on the ones i got are cheap ... if you aren't very hard on your gear they might be ok ... but you get what you pay for
I always shied away from... Behringer but after hearing this what the hell that sounds pretty good.
👀
Bill Mccloy can you explain this comment what the fuck
@Bill Mccloy well that escalated quickly. I cant say you're wrong though. What do you think about John Dee?
They're pretty much all I have on my board. Thanks to Beringher I haven't gone into debt over pedals!
I actually bought the behringer tube pedal because of you it was a different episode but I do love how you give credit to everybody and spread the love I think it's amazing also it's I'm sure the core of your success and will only make you just grow bigger out of the love you spread out everywhere thank you!
Josh is a genuinely nice guy and a gearhead, like his subscribers. Not often you see a man who makes his living selling high end pedals recommending great bargain pedals. His love for pedals and music comes through in every video. He has earned my admiration and respect.
Great guy unless you’re named Devi Ever or are gay
Actually I see Josh recommend bargain pedals all the time
This is the exact reason I trust his company!
Say that someone is trying to decide between a Berhinger or a more expensive, nicer JHS pedal... Josh knows that making this video will shoot the prices of Berhinger pedals straight up, which they did. So now with the Berhinger prices inflated, people will be much more likely to consider the JHS pedal. Clever devil..
this man is homophobic
Thanks to you, all the Behringer pedals are sold out and had to pre order my super fuzz 😭😂 (the guy st Streetwater said, “you watched that jhs video didn’t you?”)
Hahahahahahaha
I just got off the phone with sweetwater trying to find out why mine hasn't shipped yet; the rep said the same thing. Thats how i found out about this video lol
Lmao
Yep, day after he posted this, they were out of stock on Amazon and Sweetwater, and we're going for $45+ on Reverb 😆😭
Try Amazon ! Took me a month but it was worth it and the price was great.
Vintage Tube Monster was my go to overdrive. It always cut through the mix, strong enough for power chords, and clear tones with full open chords. I only sold it because it was such a massive footprint on my board. I would buy it again without hesitation.
I have several Behringer pedals and other gear, like mixers and my UMC1820 interface. Most of the gear by Behringer is pretty good. Sure, my Mackie mixer has a great reputation but hissed like a snake when the treble was turned up. In comparison, Behringer's mixers are noiseless. That's why I upgraded to Behringer. Yes, folks, I consider this an upgrade. I am not a brand-snob! I've never had any of their equipment fail. In terms of copying circuits: everyone copies everyone. If people didn't copy and then improve, there'd be no progress - or is anyone saying that whoever invented the car is the only one allowed to make a 4-wheeled transport device?
I have a decades old behringer euromixer i bought for like 99.00 new, still works like a charm, quiet good quality preamps.
i have loads of Behringer hardware in my studio, i've used most of it also with pro's and they never say anything negative. A pro will use what he has to get things done, those that say otherwise are the silly keyboard warriors that don't even own stuff like that!
I've had the behringer compressor for like 13 years. It is always on. It cost me the equivalent of 20 usd.
You've just gained a subscriber by being 100% genuine in your comparisons.
I scrolled down to type this exact same sentiment. I'd always wondered about Behringer. I'm going to pay more attention to JHS Pedals now and support you when I can.
I couldn't agree more. This video just added 4 new pedals to my board. Always wondered about behringer
Samesies
RallyFlow Bro same
Closet Behringer pedal buyer for years now. I fell dirty and I like it
I'm with you, and I collect Danelectro ones too
I've been buying behringer stuff for over 10 years. They're even cheaper where I am than in the US, cos I'm in Europe. Like their microphones they make, that are on lists of "best beginner microphones" or whatever, seem to cost over $100 in the US, but I can get them here in the UK for like £30.
as and engineer can confirm that their amps kick all boutique amps in the a.... amazing work. From pedals their phase in metal box VP1, Dynamics Compressor DC9 and that Tube OD are amazing pedals, their mics are great and interfaces for recording are 1st class.
@@sisajtegabre Right glad to hear that since I just bought their FCA1616, thanx.
@@SteamvilleQuintet OK it have USB and FP..i have far more simpler only working with USB but that is what i need UMC404HD under 100$. Behringer IMHO got that bad reputation due to plastic enclosures for pedals also when people buy cheep and it is broken they are often angry but they overpay things they tend to find excuses ..for example there are tons of videos for let say guitars up to 500$ and they do bla bla how fret ends are sharp etc but when they do video for some Suhr or PRS that cost 3-4000$ and have sharp fret ends then they say ''it is normal thing and guitar have to be taken to pro for set up'' ☺..Fact is that all parts are made in Asia for pedals, all machines like CNC again Asian, pickups parts everything comes from there so it is a bit crazy to think they are not capable to make 1st class finished product..I don't have the problem to say that open no matter that i'm European, but some of my friends who try to make pedals, amps etc don't like that since the only thing they are left with to justify the high prices are lies more less. To make 1st class pedal in metal box if you make let say 100 of them- parts will cost you for each less then 5$, for pickups is the same situation only builder have less job to do. Then why some products cost 200$ when fer price should be under 50$? Simple human greed, take a look 99,99% of those small builders have no school usually they are musicians who couldn't do anything with musical career but they know very well that guitarists often tend to buy overpriced things due to marketing hype. If you buy some KIT pedal and solder it alone it will be equal with quality as any boutique out there 100%. cheers.
JHS pedals are my favorite not just because they make great pedals but the fact that Josh keeps it real and has a massive passion for what he does.
I enjoyed your presentation, being out of the game for a long time playing acoustic I went into electric and didnt understand pedals, so you gave me an understanding of what they are. Braking the bank was not an option your demo gave me a idea what could be attained at little cost great info for the old beginner thank you , I m a little wiser now.
Yours is THEE BEST COMMENT HERE !
"a fuzz octave yoda". Josh is the greatest thing in the internet
It'll be the name of a new boutique fuzz pedal, just you wait
Came here to say this
Man, boss does a really good job copying behringer's pedals lol
yeah what posers man
@@jsullivan2112 r/whoosh
In one of the other videos, he explains that's basically a function of the chip. Boss was first to the plate a lot, building the first of X pedal stompbox. Other companies wanted to build an X pedal too. So they go buy a palette of chips. Well, the chips have instructions to them. So company B follows the instructions, as did Behringer, and builds their pedal. Well, they wind up very similar. He points out its not just Behringer or company b. Its just how the entire industry works.
@@xenfermedadx c'mon dude it's got four Os, you're letting the side down.
Yeah, they're pretty much the same, the main difference is the build quality since Behringer uses high class plastic while boss sticks with cheap metal cases /s
Two year later, I’m finally here. Brilliant video. Thanks for putting this together.
I always appreciate the honesty from you guys. Thanks!!
There’s a letter “G” in Behringer. Surely grounds for Gibson to get the lawyers out of bed?
“They make products for electric guitar, that means they owe us all the profits they've ever made"
-Gibson, probably
Gibson is shit, if they inspect the Behringer Stuff they would hand over everything Gibson owns to Behringer to apologize for this POS Company called Gibson^^
And a B from Boss
Has Gibson gone downhill? Last I heard from them was that they were being raided for having “contraband” wood. maybe that was a psyop. What, Behringer city!
I mean idk about “shit company”, however they certainly have a shit attitude towards other companies.
I went almost 40 yrs without playing. I recently started again and I am stuck in late 70's still. My son left all his pedals here and I had no idea what most did. I needed a good old fuzz like the Little Muff I played before. I bought The SF300 and it is incredible. Now I am mixing loopers and HOF and having a blast. Party!!! Whoooo
Clearly, you taught your son well and are now reaping the rewards :)
the way you develop this comparison is absolutely delicious. I'm not a guitarist but I use pedals for analog synth and drum machines. This video has helped me decide to buy a few and experiment. Thank you so much.
When you said "dead-on" or "replica", that pedal automatically got into my wishlist pedal except units that I already own.
I checked my local online store, all the pedals you mentioned "dead-on" or "replica", those pedals would be their best sellers.
There's a room for behringer in my heart now just because of you. ✊🏽
Perfect example of “If it sounds good, it is good.”
The only thing left to consider is build quality. Which one will last the longest?
PaintHerWhite ?????
Proof that people hear with their eyes.
And their wallets.
Is true.
I can tell how good a guitarist is by the guitar brand and color multiplied by her\hiz hair length and color adding the cosmological platform boots spike heel height constant, minus how much blue light is in the follow spots. Add one for every fall off stage without missing the root note as the neck breaks add 100 for knee slide & 1000 for riding guitar as a skateboard, pickups down only!!! OK That is X. Now take how confusing the integral looks and forget it. If they look like you, say their amazing. If they play a harmonic minor say they stole the licks. Forget all that and admit Hendrix looked cool as fuck in those hippy dippy outfits like your mom wore. ROCK GOD is had.
Man this is actually, in this times, so deep.
People prefer saying "fuller better, more balanced sound"
yoga flame!
Thank you for doing these videos please continue to do them. You’re awesome.
This is the first JHS video that i watched over a year ago when i started to play guitar again. Also one of the first guitar related videos that i watched on youtube, never been a fan of guitar related youtube channels, still to this day there are only 3-4 that i follow. I immediately liked Josh, the whole JHS show, his humor and playing. When i started to play and buy gear again i decided that i wouldn't care much about the brand. Sure it's nice to own good brands too but in the end it's all about the sound and the player. Now i see that Josh is the one who made me realize that. I still own pedals from big brands, boutique brands but i also own budget pedals. I recently bought 4 Behringer pedals and they're all amazing. JHS show still remains my favourite youtube channel. Thanks Josh & Co.
“Go find one of those used. They are probably FREE”😂😂😂
From what I've noticed on reverb, they are cheaper new than used
@@johnsmith7140 makes sense considering..lol
I’m buying a noise suppressor for 13$ :)
Ikr? I got an Arion bass distortion new for 15$ so what do I sell it for?
Bought one for 20$ used and it was on 9/10 almost new, the power thing was more expensive lol.
TH-cam is amazing. Something like this would never have a home on traditional TV.
TH-cam is good no doubt but it’s a downer when you think how much better it could be. TH-cam police will never let that happen
I don't know what you're talking about, I play UTube on my TV! :P
TV stations doesn't know special interest.
I would say JHS is amazing
I find myself watching Josh's JHS channel more than That Pedal Show. I added a 'booster' pedal to my board thanks to Josh. I LOVE IT!!
I've always been impressed by Behringer circuits. The only thing that sets them apart from other stomp boxes is that they are certainly not stomp boxes, more like gently tap with your big toe boxes. I was surprised to hear that tc electronics is part of the same conglomerate. I usually choose those because they give me the sound I'm looking for in a road ready package at a dirt cheap price point
Behringer (Music Tribe) bought them out in 2015.
Have not bought anything TC related ever since.
I mean they can be one time stomp boxes lmao
@@TheCitedAviator still haven't broken one though, so they're built tough enough. Only pedals I've managed to break are my early model DS-1 and my all American Cry Baby.
Plus I can hear the plastic in the tone. Metal pedals have a better tone. 😉 u would probably have to use the coil guitar cord to make up for the plastic.
@@michaelweldon1127 how'd you come up with a more insane theory than tonewood
Boss : "Hey Behringer! Don't be copying my pedals!"
Behringer : "What if I make it Ultra?"
What if i put super/ultra on every each pedal ? xD
The truth is that everybody's copying everybody.
It's not just pedals, They have copied just about every analog synthesizer made.
@@David_T They actually have a really good Minimoog clone.
@@David_T not every synth.... yet.
damn its almost like using the same circuits will produce the same results regardless of brand name or enclosure.
unfortunately not obvious to some
@@justuslimpright2388
True for all but the HM2.
The Beringher one failed on that.
100% the only thing that sucks with the behringer copies is the extremely breakable enclosure but hell if you know how to solder you could still save $100s and put the circuits and knobs in your own metal enclosures
Hmmmmm
ChristianIce The HM300 had a tad less mids but that’s about it lol
I love that you demonstrate everyone else’s pedals. I have 2 behringer pedals arriving today. The Fuzz and Chorus pedals. Hopefully I will have the JHS Smiley pedal soon.
This is the video I was looking for. Thanks for share! 👍
and just like that, the only 'affordable pedals' prices skyrocketed.....
Came here to say the same thing.
JHS is actually just a conspiracy to raise all pedal companies' profits...
@@JeremyKolassaHe erased my post about how I got beringer stuff broken right out of the box !!! mutable times years ago

There's always Joyo lol
love that you dont downtalk cheap pedals, love you played that mayer lick on the filter!
It's not lick, it's a riff.
I bought one Behringer pedal, a delay. It arrived in the factory-sealed package but it never worked once and I tried various new batteries and an adapter. Surprisingly, the signal went right through it. I'm finished with Behrunger. I pulled out the guts use the shell for a $25 ashtray. High-quality guitars, amps, and pedals will last a lifetime. My 30 y/o wah has taken a lot of abuse and it still sounds wonderful. You get what you pay for with music equipment. firearms, and footwear.
For an extra $10, you can find plenty of high-quality "like-new" used pedals on the web from Boss, TC Electronics, MXR, and others. Remember that as soon as you take a pedal home, the value drops to "used". I bought a used faded Gibson LP with Burstbocker pros for $450 and it was in perfect condition. If somebody played it before I did, I sure can't tell. More than likely, some parents for their kid, he had no interest in playing it, and it was under the bad in the case for a couple years before they traded it in for a keyboard or a drum set for their next kid.

Stumbled across this video..it is simply one of the BEST videos I have ever seen on here! Excellent work! This guy is a legend!!!
Thanks for the effort man, appreciated.... you’re such an honest guy gonna pick up some of your stuff...
Me: I have a DM-2 and it's great
Joe Rogan: That's crazy man, you ever try DM-3?
ha well done, that's a lol
Really surprised EarthQuaker has not released a DM-T pedal....
Bahahahaha
Someone won the internet this week.
Epic!
Dear Gear Snobs, just rehouse your Behringer pedal into a metal box. Just tell your friends you built the pedal yourself. Shh... nobody has to know!
How? I need this.
TC has already done it, with their 30quid range.
too many people "listen" with their eyes. They think that something sounds better because they can see the label. Or worse, they think something sounds crappy (before you even turn it on) because they don't see their favorite label. Then you go to their place and they're playing a squier strat through through a 15 watt practice amp (just like I would use at home for my "practice" RIG :) )
Rather than that, I think we should press the pedals subtly and keep them in good condition. Why brag about metal housings?
@@shashanksherkar392 some people take the phrase "stomp box" a little too literally, eh?
I keep coming back to this video from time to time. I purchased the Behringer Fuzz ( too much fun) and the Chorus pedal which arrived yesterday . I might get a few more. I’ve watched a lot of your videos on pedals to hear them and the differences /comparisons from one over the other. Great information
such a helpful video, and so entertaining. thank you JHS.
I find it hard to concentrate with that wall of pedals behind him. Holy.
The TS808 copy sounds freakishly close to the original. Great video..as always.
I closed my eyes during that entire part of the video and couldn’t hear any noticeable difference. 👀
guitarguytim I had the TS-9 before but sold it for some reason I don’t remember. Will get the Behringer just for fun now :)
Ryan Weaver i did the same thing.
lmao honestly i think i prefer the behringer one
I have one and the only complaint I have is if I dial the drive all the way down (to push whatever high gain channel I’m on with out too much color) the breakup doesn’t go away enough. But hell its $30 and it works.
Love these videos so much interesting info and I'm learning how to use and dial pedals the more I hear about why they made them.
Why have I only watched this vid and channel of yours now? Amazing work even if you're a direct competitor of these brands!
Subscribed!
My favorite thing about watching is how you try to remain neutral, informative, and honest while sharing your experience as a builder yourself.
so glad to acc see a genuine comparison rather than a snob that judges someone for not being able to afford a 100 pound pedal.
this dude a professional he makes his own pedals as well
If you work you can afford quality gear.Get a fucking job before calling musicians snobs.
@@robertmailloux3720 I dunno man I work a lot and sometimes if o can save money I will. Still shelled out for a darkglass
@@robertmailloux3720 Assuming people don't have jobs.
That's why people call you a snob and don't like you.
@Lynn Collett found the snob right here. 🤣 Ffs, hobbyists have more important stuff to throw money at than pedals. If you throw more money against something that delivers the same result as a cheaper option you're a snob
Amazing video. Don't know much about pedals or guitars, but this video was really helpful to me/informational!
Bought a Super Fuzz at a guitar shop a few years back after just trying it out, not knowing anything about Behringer’s cloning programme. It’s probably my most used pedal. Stacks incredibly well with other dirt pedals too.
Wound up buying an Ultra Chorus too recently just based on how much I love my Super Fuzz.
Behringer, Danelectro and Joyo are criminally underrated, for a tight budget guitarist those 3 companies are gifts from God,.....
I have a joyo voodoo fuzz Octave and it has its place with my fuzz war, I like it for its thinner fuzz with the octave on, really brings The stooges type sound
Hell yeah! I second this
Used to be the way with Boss really... Only about ten years ago you could get a brand new DS-1 or an SD-1 for about £25, then at some point it was decided that they were now "classic" pedals, and the price doubled. The Waza Craft version is about 5 times more expensive.
I had a Danelectro and the truth .... great
Good call on Joyo. Green OD is nasty
quickly watching before it goes offline again!
Leychen bro same!!! Lol
uh, yeah...
Offline? What's the issue?

Behringer, please, now you can let this guy's family be free? Let them out of your dungeon (replica of real dungeon).
the replica part killed me lmao
these foam rubber shackles can get real itchy
Sometimes and I am mean sometimes replicas are better.
that heavy metal pedals sounded like pure shit. Takes me back to my school days where you couldnt afford an decent all tube amp that kills everything.
Roland cube 15 amp with behringer um300 was the shit at age 15 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
the people are sheep they preferes paid more expensive a boss pedal while the behringer is the same.
no personality
Yep. Much love for JHS for this reason. I’m buying his line of Fuzz pedals and a slew of Behringers. Had a Behringer headphone rack that was inexpensive and awesome.
Just thank you, your great explanations and your credibility, guide me in choosing which pedals to buy.
TH-cam's algorithm was on point with this one. Nicely done!
I love this guy. A wealth of knowledge and a sense of humor.
Makes up for his lack of eyebrows 😋😁
Great video! Thanks for the heads up on some affordable pedals!
Hola Amigo ! Always see your videos and i learn about pedals very much. I have an EQ Beringer and it's great. I will try Ultra Vibrato and Super Fuzz soon. There are in my budget. Greetings from Lima - Perú
My brother and I once built a MXR Distortion+ in a project box. No circuit board. Just wires, resistors, capacitors, etc. Used an old Ford floor dimmer switch for the footswitch. Called it the Boner. Sounded exactly like my MXR pedal.
I wasn't sold til the name.... when's the production run?

You should post a video with it
Thousands of people over on The Gear Page are collectively sticking their fingers in their ears, saying, "La la la la la la la la la."
If i could like a comment twice I would.
La la la la I can’t here you wampler is the greatest!! la la la la!!
I’m sure all of the Behringer suffer from congested mids , shrilly, icepicky highs and flubby bass whether in a busy mix or solo and dont do well with a Klon in the chain

Great Video! Learned much. Thanks!
A) I NEVER thought Id hear you say "I don't have that pedal"
and...
B) Thanks for this video, I love tone snobs getting schooled.
& vinyl snobs with their 5 figure priced Star Wars turntables with platters heavier
than sets of speakers playing records with off center holes. And their 5 figure
priced tonearms & 6 figure priced speakers! I fix 'em with a 5/16" drill bit, enlarging
the holes so I can center records. Then I tell 'em about using equalizers to fix shitty
recordings. They hate "tone controls" & I have dozens, LMAO!!!
They especially hate it when I say I'd love to bring in a Realistic equalizer from
Radio Shack that I got at a garage sale for $20 to fix their million dollar systems'
midrangey sound. They always play some nasally voiced female opera singer's
record to demo when there is stuff by Little Feat, Phish, the Hellecasters, even
the Dead Kennedys or whoever that would demo their systems much better!

@@sonovabeach2165, so what have you been listening to? I bet it's a pretty decent system but
are you using it to it's full potential with good music & at least some tone control? You
can't depend on studios & engineers using God knows what for studio monitors! They're
probably using plenty of tone control besides all the devices studios have anyway.
What Behringer is doing for analog synths really kicks ass too.
Amps too..These bugera amps are almost spot on and way cheaper than the real ones.
Just ordered an Odyssey and a Vocoder. Got a DeepMind 12 a couple of years ago and it's incredible for the price. There are rumors of a Solina clone in the works and I sure hope it happens.
It's a matter of perspective I guess.
What they’re doing for synths is what Walmart and McDonald’s are doing for your local shop.
I love that you put elliott smith on here!! And figure 8 is an amazing album! Not to mention the advice was great and appreciated. Thank you.
Love your videos, so keep 'em coming. Thx
Just remember boys, this is the video that is keeping the Behringer pedals sold out and on back order for nearly a year.
It’s crazy!
And they just dropped the price by half at a certain retailer.
It's true I bought 3 of them after seeing this video. Love the Super Fuzz (with 2 positions, and it's really something, Josh didn't talk about it).
The SF300 was already a mess because Electric Wizard used the FZ-2, so that's the doom metal guy's go-to. Fucking impossible to find them.
Two years later and still a number are backordered. They just dropped the price to $19 each so I picked up 12 of them. Full Behringer board coming soon.
I think people noticed it and started trying to spike up the price
Josh, it took a big man to do this video.....and I loved it. You did us players with GAS on a budget a great service.
@Time Traveller About??...
I totally agree. Well done Josh, much respect.
Thank you I just ordered the blue tube tm300 pedal because of this demo great job
I got a barely used VD400 and UV300 for $25 combined at my local Sam Ash. They're my only delay and vibrato pedals, and I love them both. The UV300 is genuinely amazing sounding, and the VD400 is damn good too
You are now my guitar pedal Guru. I like that you are humble enough to always recognize other brands and rarely promote your own. For this, I will soon buy my first JHS pedal, the only is deciding which one I want.
Keep up the great work and also thank you for opening our ears to artist’s albums I would never had heard of.
I love how he just honestly reviews these pedals. It would be so easy for him to bash them since they’re made in a huge factory and there’s no way that any small pedal maker could match their prices, but he doesn’t. I’m gonna have to get some JHS on my board
I really appreciate the fact that you made a video of other companies pedals without even mentioning your own! Very admirable!!! One thing I was curious about is I've never run across a vibrato pedal. They were off my radar. It sounded just like tremolo to me, at least without hearing them side by side. Is there a substantial difference?
As far as behriger products I own and use, I've picked up 3 things just on a whim, and because they were used and being sold, so darn cheap, I couldn't resist, and i have been extremely impressed with what I got, especially for the money. I got a rack mount unit for 20 bucks that I don't really get a chance to use much just because of space issues. I don't remember the model, but it's blue and had I think 80 presets that all sounded pretty good. I just don't have a pedal controller for it, or even know if there is one, so unfortunately it doesn't get much use. The monitor speaker, and 4 channel amp are a completely different story! The amp presents itself as a "400w" model, and I typically pay no attention to that, but for doing a solo gig, or just jamming with a couple buddies without blowing out my windows, pissing of the neighbors, or at my age, ruining what's left of my hearing, it has been the single most useful item I've ever purchased for what I like to do. It's not pro gear, but you can plug in 4 different instruments(or 3 and a mic) and not only adjust the tones and volumes separately, but it also has an onboard effects processor! Nothing super awesome, but this is all packed into a relatively small combo amp that does pack a real punch(it is quite heavy for its size but you can't have it all! Just damn close!), and I forgot to mention it has a 6 or 7 band graphic EQ as well. It's not as useful for multi person use, it last in the effects chain(pretty sure) and unlike the onboard effects that have a blend knob for each channel(pretty awesome), it effects the output of the whole shootin match, so it's more for getting the amp in its "happy place" with all of those different inputs. it is one of the main reasons I've been using it just playing around though. Don't know why, and I truly regret it at this point, but I never had an eq pedal and really didn't understand them till just recently. For the 60 bucks I paid for this thing used, it's the handiest thing I've ever bought for jammin, and I wish I'd had this thing YEARS ago when me and my music buds couldn't find a place to play music. So behringer has my permanent seal of approval! The monitor speaker is crazy loud and clear as a bell, but they were sold in pairs, and I only got one of them. Well...that's probably so darn long nobody's gonna read it anyways! Sorry for writin a novelette about my Goofy 4 channel amp! I'd say I am in love with it after seein' what I just wrote!!!😆
I know this is a old video, but I wanted to mention The Behringer SF300 it has a fuzz mode switch , if you move the switch up and in the middle of 1 and 2 it creates a really cool tone , I’d like to have that effect in a pedal
Yeah!
Take me down to Behringer city where the chips are there to make effects so pretty!
Please take me Josh!💥🎸

@@HotStrange Conditions vary a lot between factories and sweatshops in the far east. As consumers there isn't much we can do other than prefer locally produced goods whenever possible and avoid products associated with the worst of worker conditions. Conditions within Behringer city have been described as rather bad so I'm not too enthusiastic about Behringer products at the time. That, and the fact that Music Group recently virtually ended their customer support by implementing a new website that is humanly impossible to navigate.

No conspiracy at work here... I assume the vid got replaced because there was a mute segment starting at 9:58... Super vid, always wondered about Behringer. In fact I really dig this channel, great content, well filmed and edited, informative, funny, you're really good on camera, man. This and TPS, awesome shows.
