Hi Josh. Please definitely do an episode on “rare pedals that aren’t rare”. It would be great to see and know what has been over-inflated due to hype instead of rarity. Am aware that the Klon isn’t as rare as you think but you have things like the KOT which is largely due to the queue…
Rare by what standards
How many were produced??
@@kodykindhart5644 yes
Digitech Synth Wahs have doubled in price for no apparent reason over the last year.
@@psychoangus i bought one for cheap here in Argentina, but ended up trading it for a dynamic wah (Boss) because it has input for bass and guitar separately!
@@psychoangus prob some artist started using it or something
Important tip for buying vintage pedals: do NOT buy a pedal right after Josh makes a video about it. Wait at least 6 months. Even better, go back in time and buy it the day before Josh's video.
I pulled this off once.
Got that silver horse Klone and a year later? Bam. Herpes.
Really enjoying all these Monday talks, Josh. Most of the time I have to watch them later but I never miss them.
I really like this "series" of videos. It would be super rad if they were turned into a podcast so I could listen to them in the car.
My problem with Reverb are all of the parts you find instead of an actual full product. You'll look up a guitar and 90% of the results will be pickguard designs that haven't even been produced. The filters are alright, but a lot of these part sellers ignore them.
Josh, I’m interested in you and Daniel doing a show about how not rare pedals are.
Maybe it’s a tired, sore, or off-topic topic, but thoughts on this year’s tax law requiring that Reverb issue 1099s for sales over 600 bucks would be of great interest. It has certainly given me pause from doing much selling on Reverb this year. Yes, buying is great, but selling old stuff is equally important to facilitate buying!
It stopped me from selling, I can tell you that much. Done a lot more Craigslist sales because of it. Gonna start selling more of the pedals I mod in pedal stores instead of online because of it. Reverb is fighting to get used gear exempt from the rulling, but it is an uphill battle. It is definitely going to cause Reverb to lose sellers.
I would love to hear a discussion through your process for creating a new pedal product. For example: the new octave reverb, how did you decide to do it, what was the process for coming up with the algorithm, why a 3 series vs a regular pedal. I think it would be cool.
I'm 42 years old and bought my second DoD Grunge fx69b in 1998 with the updated thicker pedal of course the first one was a fx69 original and the weak pedal got stomped out 😆 What is the difference between the tone of a digitech grunge and a DoD? Both probably vintage by now ✌
🇩🇪 In Germany you pay double if you buy on Reverb (vs. eBay etc.)
I think many German the hardcore pedal snobs don’t even know about that banality. 🙈🙉
Unfortunately we are a very obedient nation willing to pay anything.
There are so many ways to get vintage pedals cheap(er). I can’t believe some people throw away thousands of Euros for stuff that you can obtain so much cheaper if you know how and where to look.
Yes please do an episode on how pedals aren't as rare as people think they are!
How about episodes geared towards how to start learning how to understand circuits and components. Recommended books etc. Easy mods like your episode on modding a fuzz face. Would love to dig into that.
Hi Josh, I agree with Tim, I would like an episode on rare pedals that aren't rare.
I found a Boss DS-1 at the grave of a cat in a forest in Germany. It's not rare but hey - go camping maybe? It worked for me.
You're too late. I sold my Electro Harmonix Trumpet last week.
Love the Monday Monologues and the Critical Rig series. So many reasons to tune into JHS recently. Keep it up!
Yes-do an episode on rare pedals that aren’t as rare as people think they are
"How I use reverb". I had a whole different idea of what you were going to talk about.
Thumbs Up for JHS monday videos.
Great service Josh! Love your vids. Would also appreciate a segment on perceived rarity of pedals. Thx
Hey Josh, Love these Monday talks. Keep em goin. On the subject it was a bummer weekend collecting for me. A TS-10 with box and everything came up on Facebook in my area (DC area) for $80. I shot the lady over the $80 on Cashapp to secure the pedal and then it disappeared off Facebook and 30 hrs later no replies back from “her”. Now im in process of trying to get my money back and changing my cashapp card number. When i went back and looked it was a Facebook account with no friends. I was so excited to get a TS-10 for $80 i did not do good due diligence. I guess if its too good to be true it is. 😢
These monday vids are my favorite. Ill try to come by more whe. They are live. Love all you do Josh and everyone at JHS. You inspired me to try and build pedals. ❤️
100% do that 'rare pedals that aren’t rare' show
Reverb [like Discogs] have a "My Collection" in the Menu. Will JHS be logging it's collection on Reverb ?
.
I don't like the collector's mindset it seems sick to me.
Idea for Monday monologue content; tell us about your musical ventures so far; bands, gigs, recording sessions etc!
Really enjoy the Monday shows. The history aspect of what your doing is very interesting.
Hey Josh! I had no idea you were in Chattanooga. Btw, I really think you should do a show on Arion pedals. They were a pretty important part of the early budget/ clone pedal market, and it's time they got their due praise. My first pedals ever were an Arion Metal Master and SCH-1 Stereo Chorus, and I still use them regularly. Just a suggestion.
Have fun in Nashville! Gruhn's is incredible.
I have that black Big Muff Russian. It's an amazing dirt pedal, not quite a fuzz not quite a distortion but both.
How long before we see the Murphy Labs versions of relic’d pedals and pre-permamoistened boxes for a gazillion dollars? I hope never, but I fear it may become reality as the supply/demand gets crazier over the decades? Just a weird thought I had after watching this episode.
Saw two MRB Analog Engineering Tone Bender MkII and 1.5 2 in 1 pedals on Josh’s feed. Those are killer pedals!
I’m pretty sure that Keurig song was a trade dress violation!!!
Great, episode. Great to find out im not normal too. Thanks Josh
I love listening to these every week please keep doing the Monday monologues!!
It's your fault prices are higher now!!? JK, I use to flip too....stopped a few years ago. You can't survive doing that now, everyone knows what they have and taxes are higher.
I know you are an analog guy mostly but you should try the MOS 6581. I’d imagine you could make a pretty neat little box with one of those.
At first I thought we were going to talk about my Alpine pedal. We love reverb!
I have gotten some great instruments doing "Pawn Shopping" :p Still love to check out whats available, guitars, pedals, and amps. I have gotten more pedals that anything else on Reverb.
Just noticed the Guyatone LG 350T in your feed, Josh. I have one (same colour!), and it's amazing. Don't sit on that guitar. I bought mine here in Japan where I live, and highly recommend it. The middle pickup is one of the best-sounding pickups I've heard.
I'm currently collecting the grey enclosure marshall pedals and have been putting off buying that catalog for months now 🤦♂️. I'm an idiot.
Not Reverbs fault but now if you sell over 500 bucks you get a 1099K from the IRS. So I paid tax when I bought my gear. Now I will get taxed when I sell it.
My first experience with Reverb wasn’t good. I bought red strat knobs advertised as suitable for American strats. However they were actually knobs for smaller potentiometers. Reverb didn’t recognize the issue with the seller and only offered a discount for future orders. Now I prefer Sweetwater, Stewmac for new stuff, and Mercado Livre (kind of an Ebay) for vintage stuff. I get vintage Boss pedals for more affordable prices than Ebay and Reverb.
Violet rams head legends of fuzz? Shine ei companion legends of fuzz? Germanium fuzz face legends of fuzz?
I would never contest Josh’s knowledge in all things pedal.. but vintage traditionally is ~20 years.. and def don’t have to be out of production. This a DS1 from the 70s is still vintage.
Hi Josh. Have you ever done a review of the old Zoom pedals? Like the Hyper-Lead / Tri-Metal / Power Drive etc? They seem to be well regarded by people that have them but also not widely used either. I'm wondering about trying one, if I can find a good condition one. Thank you.
Wow, I've only made 78 Reverb purchases since 2019. Feels way off.
Please accept this challenge. You have 83 pedals listed on sweetwater, almost 20 of which are your generic white ones. I have to believe that among those 83 is a very good pedal board. Here’s the challenge: Let’s say Jimmy Page was someone’s favorite guitarist. Imagine a pedal board with nothing but JHS pedals that when you arrange them the artwork on the pedals form a dragon. Pedal board as actual art. Or just stay with those white things.
So I watched this video josh.... And I went and bought a pedal.... I had been eyeing up a used mufuletta, and then I had been looking up a nice rams head clone from an Irish pedal builder but then I watched this video josh and I spent my money on an unboxed, missing battery cover small enclosure Black Russian Big Muff because its the sound that I remember from being a young fella in bands with my mates and I always thought it sounded better than the NYC big muff and I couldn't get one when u was a kid so I had to have it after watching ur vid man! Delighted!
Regarding the idea to make the Monday talks a podcast: it is a podcast! Put TH-cam on your phone, listen only to the audio on wireless buds, history tells us, that Podcasts were first called “appointment radio”. Radio, look it up, fascinating stuff!,
YES Great topic! YES make a show about how “Some Pedals Are Not As Rare As You Might Think”
I am more apt to trace old circuits and building to vintage specs than paying for golden gooses. Some of the older websites were excellent sources for us hobbyist. Though I must say, some new pedals are hard to beat.
Really phoned this one in lol.... jk wasn't that bad. Can't wait for another Totally Normal Behavior!
Out of context, "Follow normal behaviour." is great. Cheers.
Josh, I live in Dalton, GA. Just south of Chattanooga. Is there anyway I could get the info on possibly looking at the pedal collection you were talking about in Chattanooga?
I love these monologues, keep doing them.
The thing I don't like about Reverb searching is that when I click on page 2, half a dozen or more items from page 1 reappear... what a waste time.
These Are Nashville’s Cowboy Hats is my new post hardcore band.
i know youve done delay 101 but have you ever done a deep dive into how we got from les paul and a reel to reel tape machine that you could only use in a studio to thom yorke and johnny greenwood and yvette young, what was the first delay pedal and whose idea was it? who was the genius to bridge the gap between space echo and memory man?
Genuinely appreciate all the content you and the folks at JHS do. Just commenting to say thanks!
hi josh, can you make a video about the s. hawk ltd. II treble booster and tonal expander, i've been searching about that pedal but i couldn't find anything, i want to build it but i just can't find scheme, and i know that you know a lot more about pedals than me
You helped me get my feed streamlined! Thank you so much, Josh!
HAHAHA!!! when you were showing your feed i tried to click on something!!!!
I have very much been enjoying these Monday Monologues. I don't usually get to see them live, but every single one has captured my attention. It's quite nice to get a deep dive into whatever it is that has been on your mind.
I really enjoy those videos but this one was honestly lame. You can either watch it or read the following sentence: „Reverb has filters“.
How about an episode showing some of that collection you and Daniel recently acquired?
Hi! Big fan! How about an episode about Björn Juhl?
Love these Monday morning sessions. Reverb is indeed a great resource. Pro tip- You've got to bring your own stash of good coffee and a poor over rig for on the road Josh.
Josh.
Can I ask if you have ever wanted to write books on the history or archives of pedals. I think that rabbit hole will be deep and convoluted. But so cool
Ka-Ching with the paid Reverb advertisement. Dooped us!
I had some good times at the skatepark with Alex Shirley as a kid rest in peace my buddy Shirley.
i had to stop watching when josh moved the reverb box. it made me physically sick!
Daniel better buy all the EHX pedals available cuz now we have the secrets.
I betcha Josh paid 40 dollars for that coffee "I mean think about it, that's the price of three coffees".
I have that Russian Big Muff. I will never part with it. I got it as a gift 20 years ago and Ive loved it ever since.
You guys should do a Synth pedals vid…and make sure you include that one Kevin Parker uses 😉
"Classic" is 25 years old.
"Vintage" is above that.
Good stuff, Josh. Haterz and Potaterz, am I right?
whatever you're using on your travel rig, the sound quality seems better than usual.
Trogly does a killer version of this Reverb walkthrough for guitars
Well my friend Jay Riemenschneider eats horse all the time! He gets it from his butcher.
I'm poor, so if I want a rare or vintage pedal, I have to make it myself 😭😭😭
not a collector, but a few ah ha moments for my own reverb browsing.
Always look for seller's review.. Lots of scams lately..
Take a listen outside. Do they really play clean as country water?
When the travel rig looks and sounds better than the home setup.
Update your Chrome! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I enjoy these Monday Monologues. Keep it up.
So this is how FBI fixes field screw-ups?
How to NFT for musicians.
These Monday shows are my can't miss series. I don't need more than just you talking about pedals. Does that make me a geek?
...I was unaware of the "feed" feature - thanks!
My stomach dropped when you brought up looking for jhs… I’m trying so hard on my collection I don’t need more ppl jumping in yet 😢
newfangled: late 15c., "addicted to novelty," literally "ready to grasp at all new things," from adjective newefangel "fond of novelty" (mid-13c., neufangel), from new + -fangel "inclined to take," from Proto-Germanic *fanglon "to grasp,"...
it is more expensive to ship to my country I guess?
I enjoy these Monday morning talks, though this one wasn't all that relevant to me as I'm not a vintage pedal person. I guess that could change, but it would take a large cash infusion.
You have convinced me to use Reverb more though. Placed my first order (Ethereal) just this past week. I've had great luck on eBay, though nothing vintage particularly, using some of the filtering and alerts and things you use here.
Also when you look for the highest sold price in the jhs, it shows the listing price and not the price it sold for (if someone sent a offer for example) I know because I bought a couple of those, people please use that as a reliable source to sell you pedals it’s not nearly accurate enough.
I love these Monday hangouts.
i want to know who to find vintage pedal money.
Hope you enjoyed my home town of Chattanooga!
"vintage" is a marketing term. In the 80s, I remember pawn shops filled with analog synths - minimoogs, oberheims, korgs, yamahas, rolands - that today command many $1000s of dollars. Back in the 80s, everyone called it junk, NOT vintage, dumped it all to buy DX7s, D50s, and M1s.
People also called Electro-Harmonix junk, too. Guitarists didn;t want to be seen using EH. :)
Most Guitarists hated Gibson Les Pauls, SGs, and 335s, too.
