@@jhspedals Oooh, a direct line. Quick question. I came across a Kent FuzzWah, the 60s silver plate front one. There's a short in my channel. Is this something that will ever have genuine value as a relic of an older time, or is it more of a mantelpiece item?
If you listen on satisfaction. You can hear the click of the pedal when it comes on. Also he’s a bit late cuz his hand moved to click it on. Now can’t unhear this just like me!
This is *amazing*, especially since it's a different flub every time they make that transition in the song. The last one may be the funniest. I may never unhear it, but I don't want to!
I feel like he did define it as "first pedal that sat on the floor with a foot switch" However in my mind the de armond trem trol had a cord to a footswitch. "In 1948 the first commercially produced standalone guitar effects unit was made, called the Trem Trol 800 Tremolo. Built by DeArmond in Toledo, Ohio. It passed the guitar signal through a water-based electrolytic fluid to augment the original tone." ...and discuss! Lol
@@jhspedals I know, I knit picked there. I'm not really "that guy" lol. I just recently started studying and watching videos on the trem trol 800 so I got excited. I kinda wanna build one. Your videos work! Cause now im gonna go research the maestro! Josh and I are basically family. I don't have eye brows either...lol
When I was a kid this thing was The Holy Grail. I can stll visualize the first one I saw in person when my guitar player brought one to band practice early 1966. Awesome.
After a dormant period following it's introduction, the fluke happenstance sequence of Rolling Stones' Keith Richards trying that first Maestro Fuzz tone pedal on what was intended to be only a recording demo of "Satisfaction", the Stones' manager then surreptitiously arranging for that demo to be released as the Stones' next single, & the single becoming a big hit, led to guitarist fans everywhere wanting to know how they too could get their own electric guitar to sound like that! The world of fuzz boxes & guitar pedal effects had commercially finally taken off!
I believe that guitar part in the demo was planned to be played by a horn section. That clearly didn't happen. Also, it's been rumored that Keith Richards hated that guitar tone
My dad still had his from his childhood when I was learning guitar in high school. I didn't think much of it then, in fact, I thought it sounded like hot garbage. We still have it hidden away somewhere, so I need to find that, sucker and give it another go!
Cool. Thanks for the memories...I did Maestro's-and Gibson's and Epiphone's-advertising in the late 60s/early 70s. Wish I had all the things I wrote ads for!
I have one of those but it's the later version the FZ-1A. I bought it at a flea market about 40yrs ago. I bought it as broken and supposedly it's the better version. Someday I'll send it out to be fixed. I also bought at the same time an original vox wah pedal also bought as broken. They're in my collection of broken fx pedals.
I heard the first effect, not a true pedal, was the rotating speaker. It was like a lo tech phaser. They built the phaser pedal to emulate the speaker effect when the speakers became obsolete.
The fuzz on Satisfaction is better than the plasma garble fuzz that bleeds out my eardrums in any modern rock song. It had room to breathe, and it bellied like a beast.
So here's the thing ... I'm fascinated by pedals and I can't even play a guitar. I mean ... I know a few chor .... never mind. I'm an artist. I can paint a mean guitar though. You should see my Joe Strummer tribute. So far above that garbage that Fender is issuing. I digress ... 😎👍
What’s so cool , like someone commented ‘here it is, on my wall’ But notice there’s no dust on any of those pedals? 😂either they have a really clean interns or they are in a vacuum-tube
The new ones are a shame. The boxes are cool. I tried to get the mastertone distortion and it was fried in the box. Took it to two stores for a replacement, and their stock was fried as well.
True Story: The riff of the song was originally meant to be played by horns. Since the pedal had “Horn-Imitation“ or something like that in it's manual and advertising. So that legendary recording with the guitar playing the riff was meant to be a demo for the label. But they liked it, published it and the band thought their career was over. 😂
Oh man. Now you have me thinking of pedals that you could tune on the fly using, I guess, a grid system similar to a theremin? But how does that save space or benefit anybody? There is an over-engineered, potentially million dollar idea but likely boondoggle staring us in the face right now.
Josh! You have your heart checked out? In all seriousness, you look like I did before I had a heart attack. Basically, more white and pasty than normal. 😎 We love ya man! Just looking out 🤟
Gibson also made amps by that name. I know because I have one in my posettion. Mine has tremolo and is one of the first guitar amps to feature a reverb tank back in '61 along with Ampeg's Reverborocket. Uncle Doug actually fixed one on his channel whose serial number was only two digits away from mine.
Why can I not find the Support button on your Patreon? I've tried everything and I emailed Joshua. Man, I really need to give you money! Really, I just want more content.
Wait wait wait......no. Keith Richards told a totally different story about running a maxed out tape loop for satisfaction. I have no life, I know. Just sayin.
I love how you're just like hey. Here it is. On my wall. Absorbing the elements.

I'll buy it
The Maestro Fuzztone was my first pedal, purchased at Tom Lee Piano Company in Kowloon, Hong Kong, in 1967. Man, I wish I still had that pedal today!
It did and still does, sound awesome.
Cool. Thanks for the memories...I did Maestro's-and Gibson's and Epiphone's-advertising in the late 60s/early 70s. Wish I had all the things I wrote ads for!
I love this guy. He just wants you to have the best experience with pedals whether they are jhs or any other brand
That was my first pedal back in 1972 😮 🙂
It does so sound awesome.
Excellent info...
You don't know what good tone is. The Maestro Fuzz sounds incredible for metal guitar
It doesn’t sound that awsome, but it was used on one of the most iconic guitar riffs ever. That makes sense.
I have one of those but it's the later version the FZ-1A. I bought it at a flea market about 40yrs ago. I bought it as broken and supposedly it's the better version. Someday I'll send it out to be fixed.

Its the ultimate pedal.man, gotta fix it :)

🎶🎶He don’t have the box 🎶🎶
The small box that made the 60s roar
The fuzz on Satisfaction is better than the plasma garble fuzz that bleeds out my eardrums in any modern rock song. It had room to breathe, and it bellied like a beast.
Love the sound of it, can you plug it in and play thru it again plz?
Make a video on the 1st reverb pedal. Wait... Has he done that? The Boss RV2 (1987) 🤘🎸Gotta love the "1st" pedals
I think you are mistaken. I'm pretty sure the first one was made by James Pedal in 1926 when he plugged his guitar into a box full of angry bees.
I can't imagine a world without pedals
No pedals period. Cars, bicycles, all gone.
@@koDaffi oh yeah
Josh is such a Gump nerd. And My true hero.
Wow I've had dreams that look like that room
We need a video on the Dearmond Tremolo unit. Has liquid in it. Interesting
Ive got one of those!
Cada que jugaba un gears sentía que era una película interactiva de cualquier pelon que hacia películas de acción en los 00's
I had one back in the day there was a guy who modded them back then. They were great after the mod. He charged 15 bucks and made them usable.
I got the maestro phase shifter with the foot switch. But so does Josh. I seen it in one of his vids.
Correct me if I'm wrong but didn't Marty Robbins don't worry about me create fuzz due to a blown fuse in the mixing board on the steel solo
"It doesn't sound that awesome, but it's what Keith used to get the tone on Satisfaction"
Honestly I can't tell if that's a joke or not 😆😆
Play it for us!
So here's the thing ... I'm fascinated by pedals and I can't even play a guitar. I mean ... I know a few chor .... never mind. I'm an artist. I can paint a mean guitar though. You should see my Joe Strummer tribute. So far above that garbage that Fender is issuing. I digress ... 😎👍
What’s so cool , like someone commented ‘here it is, on my wall’
But notice there’s no dust on any of those pedals? 😂either they have a really clean interns or they are in a vacuum-tube
“May I hear it?”
Josh: “… No”
Fuzz. Awesome! But what was the 2nd pedal ever invented?
'Josh, what is the rarest pedal on earth at this moment ?'
I think at the moment it must be those pedals in that case in the corner.
😂
This man could benefit from a little sunlight
gave this video the n. 1000 like
That is all good and well, but does he have the box?
I still have one
i’ve played one they’re interesting
What about the first pedal that didn’t sit on the floor with a foot switch?
Invented on accident during the recording of a Marty Robbins (country singer) song “dont worry”.
The new ones are a shame. The boxes are cool. I tried to get the mastertone distortion and it was fried in the box. Took it to two stores for a replacement, and their stock was fried as well.
“It didn’t sound that awesome” and then naming one of the most iconic sound of rock music 🤣
We had one while I worked at gc I regret not buying it lol
So Gibson put out the first pedal? I didn’t know that.
True Story:
The riff of the song was originally meant to be played by horns. Since the pedal had “Horn-Imitation“ or something like that in it's manual and advertising. So that legendary recording with the guitar playing the riff was meant to be a demo for the label. But they liked it, published it and the band thought their career was over. 😂
The pedal was intended for bass guitar to emulate a baritone sax which were used to play the bass lines in some forms of country music.
What was the first pedal that sat on the floor WITHOUT a foot switch?
Now I want to know the second 🤔
Do you have the box?
Had one, found a much better alternative, and sold it. I have way too many pedals. G.A.S. Pedal is Real!!! The Geetar Gorilla told me so. I swear!!!!
I would really love a world without pedals but built-in fx at my fingertips
lol, mmmmmm
I had one one from this period, so fun when I started in my punk band
Oh man. Now you have me thinking of pedals that you could tune on the fly using, I guess, a grid system similar to a theremin? But how does that save space or benefit anybody? There is an over-engineered, potentially million dollar idea but likely boondoggle staring us in the face right now.
55 burgers 55 fries
Nice top gear collection, cant see a volume though
😂 my favorite
Can you imagine a life surrounded by four walls and guitar pedals and that was like literally it?😂😊
Any plugin that model it?
But does ge have the box?
So I assume you have a Vox Tone Bender?
I guess it's subjective cause I think it was pretty good as far as sound, but today I don't like the way most dirt pedals sound
Had one in the day, traded it for a $12 bag.
And now it is worth twice as much
Old people in the 60s be like "no thanks KIDDOS, I prefer to slash my amp speakers like a REAL guitarist"
Josh! You have your heart checked out? In all seriousness, you look like I did before I had a heart attack. Basically, more white and pasty than normal. 😎
We love ya man! Just looking out 🤟
A world without pedals??!!! Nooooooo!
There were volume pedals before that
Dude looks like a papa meat cartoon
Anyone else think that was Rob deer deck
He acts like he’s the pedal god with his huge neck/chin
Maestro? By Gibson? I thought the name was only used for their entry level guitar...
Gibson also made amps by that name. I know because I have one in my posettion. Mine has tremolo and is one of the first guitar amps to feature a reverb tank back in '61 along with Ampeg's Reverborocket. Uncle Doug actually fixed one on his channel whose serial number was only two digits away from mine.
Go outside - you're looking ghostly
probably the one for a bike 😅😂
I wonder if you bought that off my friends dad. He had the actual pedal that keith richards used for satisfaction.
Was actually made for a trumpet. Keith richards thought it might be cool for his guitar on satisfaction
It was made for a bass guitar to emulate a baritone sax actually.
what if you have no floor you just have no floor?
I had one... I'm ashamed to say I pawned it for gas money as a teenager
Imagine if Maestro made actual good pedals.
their new pedals sound great
Their new envelope filter is sick
Josh hates germanium transistors and the hand made way of construction.
Josh, you should grow a beard...
Review boss xtrotion
I love your videos I love your contact but John you need to go outside and play some fetch with a dog
Get some ☀️

I think the DeArmond Tremolo pedal was the first pedal invented in the 1940s although not a fuzz
Didn't Gibson have a tone bender
Wait wait wait......no. Keith Richards told a totally different story about running a maxed out tape loop for satisfaction.
I have no life, I know. Just sayin.
Not much you tube content lately
bro doesn't even play it and show us what it does

couldnt come across more bored and uninteresred if he tried lol
