100% would buy a "solid state Fender amp distortion" pedal.
Me too lol
Fender frontman 10g distortion pedal
Yes
Same here.
Tronographic makes the Rusty Box and the Boxidizer which is based off the distortion from a solid state Traynor amp. Highly recommended.
The "Hotel California then a metal song" was sooooo accurate
If this didn't happen, were you even in a high school band in the 90's?
Neuri He did NOT call Hotel California a "metal song"; he SAID that band (that he was in) would play Hotel California, and *then* (meaning: the next song they'd play) a metal song. Why, since Y2K, have people slowly stopped being able to read, write, listen, hear, and learn, and be able to pass on what they've learned? It's like people have slowly become more catastrophically stupid.
@@joshuafreedman7703 Neuri didn't say that though, calm down...
He was litteraly agreeing with Josh, learn to read bud
@@joshuafreedman7703 Bro, talk about the irony of people becoming progressively stupid. You just made up half your argument on something no one even said. Dude just quoted what was said in the video and you went on a tirade explaining what he already understood? Please learn to read, write, listen, and learn, and learn how to pass on information.
I remember my 8th grade band played Beat It followed by Raining Blood lmao
Tone Snobs: "You use the drive section on your solid-state amp?!?!?!?! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!"
Also Tone Snobs: "I run my 100 watt tube amp super clean then use a bunch of solid-state drive pedals to get my tone!"
But, but, but! My pedal has a magic Germanium diode sourced from the former Soviet Union, and everyone knows Germanium contains the same magic electric as tubes!
yeah that’s true but if you put a drive pedal through a solid state amp vs a tube amp it sounds much different. the breakup is different and some people prefer that
Tone snobs can suck a fart out of my bulbous posterior. I've gigged out with various acts using those Fender solid state amps from the late 90's to early 2000's, and they are effing great.
@@brockam the only people at a venue that give a fuck abt ur tone are other guitarists
Yeah but one sounds good and the other sounds terrible
I feel like everyone had a Zoom 505 at some point in the 2000s. Even people who don't even play guitar.
Still use mine. Fits in a backpack.
I had one forever. It was on my board up until like 2010. Found a site that had all the settings for Gilmour's tone on Young Lust and it sounded pretty damn good!
Not me, I owned the Zoom 606. Still have it. It has a reserved spot in my heart.
I had one. I made 3 presets to try and get Kurt Cobain tones. Don't even know if I used it for anything else. Lol think it's broken in a box somewhere.
My friend had one. I didn't want it 'cause I had a killer Danelectro mini-food collection of 8 pedals.
As a 41-yr old guitarist who starting playing around 1996, this episode felt like it was made for me
Made me feel old
Woah. I’m 40 thinking the same thing
DUDE SAME
How was that Crate amp during high school?
@@JInfinity7 Loud....but otherwise terrible. Tried to fix it with a Line 6 floor pod like we all did. I thought it sounded decent at the time, haha
20 years ago... I was about to age out of a group home, owned little more than a black MIM strat, Fender Bassman 25, a Boss blues driver and a trash bag of clothes.
I remember laying out guitar magazines to the pages that featured songs, riffs and anything that I could read and play.
Not that long ago, I happened across an old spiral notebook, pages riddled with tabs and lyrics I had written out.
I noticed there were smudge stains here and there.... From sweat, sad songs, might have had tears...
I was a nervously troubled young man who just wanted to find a way to express himself.
Even today, when I pick up a guitar and close my eyes, for a moment, I feel the need to escape into the instrument.
Thank you for your refreshing honesty! I think that it speaks true to most people watching the JHS shows. Although I would doubt that a majority of them would have the courage to speak up the way you did. All that I know, is all I can feel.
JJZ...(°¿.°``)
You doing good now, Paul?
I was about the same way in y2k was 16 in a home for at risk youth. Had an ibanez rg that I had no idea how to use a floyd rose on it but made the best of it and a crate amp with one of those ibanez distortion pedals where the battery went under the foot switch.
Cheers, Paul.
Music heals the soul brother.
That look full of desperation from Nick when Josh tries all the 505 presets: priceless
I see that! 😂😂😂
I think Josh was expecting this, which is why he really tries very hard to cover his face with the headstock of his guitar 😂
classic nick
There’s a little piece in all of us who secretly want to be Jonny Greenwood.
For me it’s pretty big lol
I want to be EOB
During the Radio Hendrix section my daughter looked up from her dinosaur nuggets and said "Who's playing guitar? They sound like a rockstar."
Can we all please acknowledge that Josh is also a great musician and player? He was in bands before he started designing
Yeah, I've been thinking that too. Especially when they do the jams on the mid-week live shows. Killing it.
It's like there's a large island on the horizon in the distance and it's made of Ds1s
What Josh forgets is that Sony posted a graphic representation of Pearl Jam’s signal chain on their site in about 1998, which listed the Dan-Echo on Stone Gossard’s board, and that’s why he actually wanted it.
"I'm gonna go through every single patch and annoy you." You know, I really appreciate that you keep your promises. Jeezus.
he is a man of his word.
Now I wanna do that with my Mustang V amp............................Again!
I kinda loved it.
"Pedal order is a thing, but it doesn't have to be a thing." We should should document these philosophies.
We'll replace "Jim" with "Josh's Journal."
Cross stitch it onto a couch pillow.
Some of my favorite tones are from "incorrect" order. Some people may not like the idea, but I love the "wrong" sounds.
I totally agree, we double should!
I would buy a “Pedal order is a thing...” t shirt. Definitely.
Does the B stand for Brandt?
“Its not up to me to criticize my own work, I’m just here to make it” 🤘
Absolutely make that solid state fender distortion pedal.
If you do make the “year 2000 solid state fender solid state amp” distortion pedal. Then you should call it “the rock solid”
Fenstration🤣
Nah, Fender bender.
should just name it “year 2000 solid state fender solid state amp”
@@chrisgardner5534 Y2SSFSSA Pedal
Nice real emo house profile pic tho
There's something about those old zooms that just hits me right on the nostalgia nuts
I couldn't afford ANYTHING. one buddy had the 505, then another got the step above (606 or 506???) with the built in expression pedal.
Then our other buddy got a Line 6 Pod, then a Flextone half stack and we died inside... I had a white Mexican strat and a Peavy Transfex amp...
In middle school my dad had gotten me a solid state Marshall G80RCD combo, I used that along with a Digitech Death Metal pedal to play and instrumental cover of Smells Like Teen Spirit and the talent show. We tried to get our singer to perform, but he just kept crying lol. Good times
Lol the same story (different gear, peavey tube amp with a stratocaster maple fret board mim and ds1 with ex small clone because I was obsessed with Kurt and was gonna make sure I had the correct gear to sound like Kurt's tone in highschool with my first minimum wage job to do the best I could in that moment and I also had the exact same issue with guy who was supposed to sing, but when he finally did unfortunately he bombed it so bad everyone boo'ed him offstage and stuff so he ran off stage crying (still feel bad for him.tbh lol good old youth days)
We did in bloom and of course slts because everyone would wanna hear that of course haha how about you?
in the background:
"Josh, how many DS1 do you want?"
"Yes"
"Josh, how many Tube Screamers d-"
"Yes"
As he says he’s a collector over his strap from 20 year ago!
DS1 confirmed best pedal ever made
it's not just a coincidence, josh hinting us the ultimate way how to stack the ds1 (by stacking 8 of them)
Each one is probably modded by a different builder.
“Fertile Desert Environment” that sounds a lot like Oa... Oh, I see what they did there...
I was writing the same thing! Hahaha
Definitely Maybe ;-)
This is a Supersonic comment to say the least 🙃
I don’t get it. Is it about the girl or the fact that the chords sound kinda like Stairway To Heaven?
Edit: oh it’s Oasis
@@MrSpeed-lt8gr She dances too fast for me!
The Mexican Restaurant was LaFondas. Gone now. How we never ran into each other I’ll never know
Prob a good thing! Mexican food is putrid & stodgy!
@@DMSProduktions whatever, tacos rule!
@@Frankie_Holt Twat tacos!
Had a 707 as my first pedal so I could totally flex on the 505 users with my fully sick exp pedal
Absolutely need an episode on all those sovteks behind you
I have an early 2000’s russian black big muff and it’s the best one. Sovtek is legendary.
LOL “seafood sampler” the solid state emulating JHS pedal would have to be the Bad Clam!!!
Now in my 50s, I've looked back at what I used in the 80s playing in a cover band. I had a Mach I Flying V (no idea, but it looked cool and was cheap), and a Peavey Backstage Plus. It had a cool reverb. The only pedal I owned was a Boss Compressor that my mom bought me after I asked for a chorus pedal. The store owner told her that they didn't have a chorus pedal, but the that the compressor did the same thing. Poor mom. I got some use out of it though, and I had a blast figuring out how a band works together to pull of playing songs. I eventually bought a Crate min-stack. I loved that amp! I wish I'd have kept it. I've only ever owned solid state amps, and I'm not ashamed.
The Zoom 505 was Heavenly!😄
As a massive Johnny Greenwood fan, a tele plus and a solid state fender with a distortion channel sounds pretty good to me! Also yes I’d 100% buy a solid state distortion style pedal
Tronographic makes the Rusty Box and the Boxidizer which are based off the distortion from a solid state Traynor amp. Highly recommended.
@@oliverohaver1063 ooo thank you I’ll have to check them out :)
that fender amp and your danelectro pedals sound just fine, really
It sounds fucking great. One of the best distortion sounds he's had.
Yep pretty good!
The look on the drummers face when he hits some of the zoom presets...
I'm binge watching these JHS videos, while having the flu... great content. Thank you for supplying such considerate and well planned content.
Funny 1 year later and that's exactly what I'm doing while having the flu lol.
I’m more impressed that you fit in a Ford Ranger.
I drove 8 people in the cab one really fun night
I'm impressed too, I have a Mazda truck (a ranger mazda version), regular cab, and I barely can fit 3 people including me.
At least he never had to drive the drummer home after the gigs
Yes, I would buy a "Radiohead Pedal", with Thom, Ed, and Johnny settings.
I don't care what it delivers, so long as it makes beautiful promises
there is one tho, is called thekingofgear oxford drive. it has a rat and a shredmaster I believe
... and nice dreams
Pedal should be called, “shut up and play creep!”
Diego Rodriguez the Oxford Drive is pretty much a modded Shredmaster with a switch to go to the Guv’nor
Man the drums sound amazing! Can you make a video on how do you get that sound? It seems like you're using few mics, so that's even more impressive! Also, love to know the processing
I want to say they use the JHS Colour Box preamp pedal
As someone born in 1981 and was in a band in 1999 (and owned a 505), this episode and the Y2K talk are a trip.
My first electric was a Synsonics Pro strat copy (red like yours). I had several crappy amps, including a Crate and a Pignose. A Danelectro Fabtone was my first pedal, followed by a DS-1.
I loved this video. ❤
“Teen Sadness” pretty much nails every open mic “hey we’re going to get sensitive for a few minutes before we play fast again” number I sat through in the late 90s. *golf clap*
STP’s 4 is a phenomenal record. Criminally underrated.
STP and The Meat Puppets live in Tempe AZ, best nights out ever .
110% agree, STP in general.
Hell yea Jim knows what’s up
Agreed
Also Shangri-La Dee Da. I was STP fan in the 90s, lost track of them for a while. Found this one years after it came out and was blown away.
Love the throwback multi-effects. They're bizarre in a magical way
I'm 36 and started playing guitar when I was about 10. Y2K was great because we just did what we felt, and we were happy regardless of correct technique. Thanks for the video, I can relate to alot of it 🤣 👍👍
Also 36 and I wholeheartedly agree.
Tube drivers, tube distortion, it sounds tube like saturation, tube this tube that.
"Sounds like solid state saturation"
Wait, that's something new.
Would totally buy it
Nothing cringier than when people talk about the superiority of tube amps and then use solid state distortion pedals on them
@@j_c_93 not how that works. Unless you are setting the tube amp clean running a "solid state" distortion wont make that much of a different.
@@j_c_93
One thing cringier. Your lack of understanding the difference between a tube amp and solid state, and why there’s a difference when using Overdrive, Distortion, Fuzz or Boost through them.
I’ve had a Fender Stage 100(original version), which is a solid state amp, for my backup for many years now.
I’ve been using a Marshall Origin 50
*I just decided to stop there, with no punctuation, so my comment may bring you the same Cringer moment that I had reading yours. If you don’t hear _that much_ difference, then I envy you...I think.
@@dragostego
No, J Cruise is saying there isn’t much difference between a nice tube amp with an Distortion pedal(don’t know why he went with distortion, but maybe cause SS amps don’t usually get an overdrive tone), and a Solid State amp’s distortion.
Well...he actually was saying that folks who dote over their _awesome_ tube amp, but use distortion pedals into it are the cringiest.
@@CorbCorbin I guarantee you couldn't tell the difference between a tube, solid state, and digital amp through a blind test. And, by the way, if you literally cringe everytime someone on the internet writes a sentence without punctuation, you need to reevaluate your priorities and ask yourself why you care. You understood what I said which means that I communicated effectively.
That pedal board is almost literally the sound of late 90's alternative. As much as most of us would want to sneer at those Danelctro pedals, those tones sounded great when you remember what the songs sounded like in that period. It also makes me feel old to think that we're looking at 1999 from a historical perspective....
The orange Danelectro fuzz is still one of my favourites.
1999? I'm nostalgic for 2019.
in very early Mogwai days, guitarist Stuart Braithwaite toured with basically 2 danelectro pedals, danecho and fab tone, and they sounded incredible
Me: Did he just “Oasis” that solo?!?
Josh: Yes, yes I did.
"proof I have a problem collecting things" look in the background there's 8 boss ds-1`s and potentially 2 more a few shelves up. did we need "proof"?
I have 3 just in case the first two fail and they are not even part of my regular pedal board.It was my first pedal I loved and thrashed when younger.
Please, turn this in to a series, see what "normal" peaple use to play in the 80's, 90's and 00's is great 👏👏👏
90's music videos are funny now, people playing a mix of off the shelf stuff and "Used old gear" that now costs as much as a car...
The multi-effects demo was priceless! Outstanding!
As a fellow Josh, I approve of this video. Please never stop making content, I continue to learn so much information from you. Keep on rocking brother 🎸
"Set Phasers to FUN." I love it.
This is my favorite show that Josh has done.A bunch of memories and a bunch of old pedals. And a whole lot of heart and soul.Thanks Josh
This was absolutely entertaining. Like just a great time!
I wanted to say that I recently found your channel, and your content is so simultaneously informative, entertaining and genuine and your personal touch makes a huge difference! And the talent goddamn
R.I.P. Harmony-Central and Olga.
Freakin josh man, what a guy 😂 “this pedal could murder me and I’d still put it on my board.”
Camera Guy: “...Dang...”
I love your humble approach to music.. and life... Great stuff!! keep it up.
Gawd, the drums sound frickin awesome!!
Watching this on my PlayStation but signed in on my phone just to comment on how amazing that jam was on the zoom flicking through the presets. That really blew my socks off lmfao
“Sooooo Sally can wait”.
That Dan Echo was the very first pedal I purchased.
These videos make me so happy. This one hit home for me. Loved being a guitar playing kid in the 90’s!
Ironically, this is some of the best jamming I've seen Josh do.
It caught me off guard when you mentioned The Appleseed Cast. They definitely don't get enough love! I'm one of the seemingly few people who loved Two Conversations as a concept album. It'd be cool to hear some thoughts!
My silver stripe Peavey Bandit is the sound we've all been looking for this whole time?
I love this video in so many ways. I remember so much looking at your ‘ex-gears’.. a little tear appear.
simply great show
I’ve been watching a ton of JHS videos lately and so far, this is my favorite. No. 4 for record time is the perfect icing on the cake. Just listened to that record today. 👌👌
The Zoom 505 was my first pedal too!! It was a great entry level to the world of pedals!
Still have my rig from 25 years ago. Modded Mexico strat, 15w Squier amp and a Metal Zone 🤘😎
This episode is making me extremely nostalgic. Especially when toy went thru the zoom 505 and your 1st "pedal board"... the Daddy-O, many of those were me and my friends first as well. Growing up in the 90s and even like the first 5 years of the early 2000s and was a real treat and I'm grateful for the experience.
I legit love this channel.
The world has enough “tube amp” pedals. I wanna hear a pedal that does solid state grind!
Next JHS shirt "Pedal order is a thing, but it doesn't have to be a thing" -Josh Scott I'd buy that
Also that Radio Head jam .....yeah .... real good
Hey, I want to say thanks. Your humor has drawn my wife to like the show now. This episode made me reflect on the good ole days, Y2K. Loved your mentioning of STP at the end. I love Tiny Music and No. 4 as well. Saw them the same year in Pensacola. From one Alabama boy to another, keep up the good work, sir!!
I bought No.4 on vinyl the other day. Thanks for another killer video. I really enjoy these.
A friend of mine when we were in Junior High had the Daddy-O, I actually really still like that pedal to this day. May have to find one 🤔
I went to buy a compression pedal from a guy on Craigslist and he owed me $15 in change after the transaction. I asked if he had anything else he could give me instead of the cash and he handed me a Daddy-O.
Not sure why you ever left the Zoom. Sounds as good as anything else.
Always fun...thanks Josh
Nice to see that your old band got dressed up for the New Years gig. 😁
My y2k rig rundown:
-honer rockwood pro (strat)
-danelectro t-bone
-Ibanez practice amp (blaster 15r previous version)
Then I upgraded to a multiefects unit: the Korg AX100g
Good times.
Nice idea! Mine was:
- Epiphone SG (weirdly with a Gibson trussrod cover...)
- Westfield strat copy
- Park practise amp (10 watt I think, but it was loud as hell)
- A distorsion pedal, bought from a charity shop, that I wish I could find. It would be vintage now and I have no idea what it was
- A Zoom 505 MkII, because it did every sound you could ever imagine for £70.
We're circling back around to early 00s solid state distortion being desired again, what interesting times
I remember my early days of playing bass and using an absolutely cranked Boss ODB3 cause I had no idea what a clean blend was. Thought I sounded like Justin Chancellor, I just sounded like crap. I'd say that's still the case, but now I at least own a humbucker equipped bass
I wasn't old enough at that time, not too long after my set up was an Ibanez Talman tc420, metal zone pedal, some big sliver Digitech rp14d unit my neighbor gave me and a wonky 50w crate amp. Obviously I kept the ibanez and metal zone. Had to get a few more mt2s, you know..tone!
Thanks a lot for the vídeo! The Zoom 505 was the very first guitar pedal in my life in 1997. I still have It somewhere un my room. When I saw It was one of your first pedales tío It made me smile. Thanks you again man!
I don’t know why guys have to wait to get the green light from respected guys like Josh, to start liking gear. I have a late 80s Fender Princeton Chorus amp that I absolutely love! Some solid state amps hit it out of the park!
Your comment must have been the inspiration for the “Solid state amps suck” episode, which featured your user name. The Princeton chorus is a lovely amp.
@@notplaying2379 where is my username featured?
@@voxpathfinder15r he plays a vox pathfinder in the video
My original pedal setup was heavily influenced by Matt Tolbot of Hum.
Love this. Priceless
I was a huge STP fan back then as well.
Looking back on my first guitar and amp.... wow. ....
love this show!
I love the solid state sound, fast, direct, controlled, nothing gets lost like in the saggy, spongy sound of the tubes. You just need a good speaker like an Alnico Creamback or Gold and the tone and response are just there, after all the speaker is extremely important but often gets overlooked. Most solid-state "haters" haven't actually heard an ss amp through a real cab.
That's what I have personally concluded anyway,
I play from country, surf and rockabilly to post-2000's metal
and for my playing style and classical musician mindset it's just perfect.
No distractions from playing, just solid, consistent and accurate representation
of what I'm trying to say. Also unbeatable "in your face" sound for recordings.
This is why I love Quilter amps. This is a perfect description of what those amps do. Sunn SS amps are also representative of this.
@@jakebermel6193 Iiiii don't know about Quilter, I did have a 101 Head but it was very unnatural and harmonically dead sounding and the gain was very loose, muddy and bass heavy, I had to sell it. I have a couple of '70s european solid state amps that I love and I generally like one channel amps, like a killer Ibanez starter pack amp that I've turned into a head.
teen sadness is a jam
The Fender 100 sounded great. Definitely a brilliant idea for a pedal as you may not always want that tone, but it's a beautiful colour to have in your palette.
This was such a fun episode, I reminisced about all of my original gear. It was all so unique I would never be able to find it again 😢

Man, Harmony Central and then Mapquest?! Pulling at all my nostalgia strings.
Hey, you got a MySpace?
In the 90's I had a Digitech RP1, that I would unashamedly still use if it had not gone kaput. It was super fun.
Whatever you use your tone is insane 👍
Great record!
Haven’t laughed so much during a JHS vid.
This era reminds me of Open Mic night at the Bottleneck on Thursdays
Great and unique sounds thru this vid.
This might be my favorite video you've ever made.
