JHS Double Barrel and Sweet Tea Dual Drive Pedals

- Once upon a time, a man named Roger asked for custom work with two JHS units alchemized into a single, powerful pedal. This pedal became part of our standard line as the Sweet Tea, and is still with us today. This also inspired the creation of the Double Barrel. In today's live edition of Behind the Circuit, we're diving into the story behind these two pedals and how the circuits work.
Check out the Double Barrel v4 - www.jhspedals.info/double-bar...

We need all of the 3 series in one enclosure and it should be called the Platypus
Tricerapus
It has nothing to do with the number and everything to do with how they are a weird amalgamation of other animals....
Or shamless plug
Oh that would be hilarious. It could have a customer case and power supply.
@@frogunrua next level pun
I am waiting for the $2,000 JHS every pedal in one multi-effect hub.
More "Behind The Circuit", please. This is great
We plan to!
@@jhspedals Stellar. Thanks!
A BTC on either of the Charlies or Morning Glory would be supreme.
Show starts at 2:10
You're my hero
I went to an independent music shop 100% intending to buy the Strymon Sunset, tried the Double Barrel on a whim and it destroyed the Sunset. I wanted that Sunset so badly, but the tonal quality of the Double Barrel blew me away, took it home and never got the Sunset. Love JHS pedals.
Thanks @JHSPedals for the shoutout for Deas Vail! You always treated us right. I remember Justin talking with you guys about the "Pandamonium" and he used it a ton.
I saw you guys open for Copeland in San Francisco back in 2009 (I think). Still one of the most fun shows I’ve ever been to! I met everyone in the band after the show except you. So I’ve got a signed poster with 4 out of the 5 band members.
Dude, I’m so sorry we didn’t get to hang out after the show ... I’m not sure why I wasn’t around. That Copeland tour was so great. Ace Enders, Person L, all great bands!
Hey! Of course, you're amazing!
Love the falsetto singing!! Great band.
Anyone who hates JHS hates themselves. Just a real dude and amazing builder with an ear for tone.
:)
@@jhspedals my Charlie Brown is number #1428, I call it Kruger! Love my pulp n peel too, and had a Morning Glory for years. Might find me a v3 Double Barrel!
Definitely do more of these...love learning the JHS history...
definitely will!
The Double Barrel is my favorite pedal..
DUDE DEAS VAIL!!! What a shout out. I played a worship set with Kelsey the drummer once. That band was legit! Russellville Arkansas, Arkansas Tech University.
To me this is the Prime Rib of JHS really original tones that no one else has. I would add JHS Steak n Eggs to the list too Rocks 🎸 🔥
Love learning about the history of these pedals! Picked myself up a Sweet Tea V2 earlier this year and its incredible
The Morning Glory is one of my favorite pedals. In your last video you asked if anyone would be interested in a double Morning Glory - Yes is the answer. I have the Double Barrel and it's great, but a double MG would be interesting. I have or have had the Bonsai, Angry Charlie, AT @, Moonshine, Sweet Tea, Gold and White MG's and they are all very good pedals. Love your stuff.
Loving the "behind the circuit" series. Loving my Sweet Tea too! As I watch this video I am building a shelf for more pedals!
Love this series. Thank you for all you do.
thanks for watching!
I’d love to see a Monday morning monologue or something at Josh’s workbench and just a glimpse of the creative process. Amazing video. Really appreciate you sharing. It’s inspiring.
I really appreciated this because I’m trying to start building pedals to sell and listening to Josh talk about the early days really gives me confidence that I can make it work and it’s okay that there’s going to be times that I just don’t know what I’m doing and that’s okay
I have the Double Barrel V3 and it’s easily my favorite pedal that I own. Sounds great with guitar and bass!
I want one !
I just received a sweet tea and you guys are not marketing this pedal enough. It’s absolutely amazing!
Background: I’m a metalhead that’s tone hungry, and I couldn’t decide between this and an Empress Heavy. The heavy is amazing and while it’s noise gate is impressive, the sweet tea has a very natural amp distortion type sound. I love the hell out of it!!
Love these history back stories on your companies history and pedals.
Thanks for the show!
Great episode, thanks.
Really cool hearing all of the Tupelo references. I remember seeing your pedals in Main Street Vintage Guitars back in the day.
I did this drive + clean overdub by total aciddent. I was testing my Flint stereo reverb with 2 amps and decided to cruch one of them. What an amazing sound I got from this, much clear and defined. I need this pedal.
I have the V4 Double Barrel and it's my favorite Drive pedal ever, love it with the red remote switch.
Josh, you crack me up and make me think at the same time. The Garrison Keillor of pedals! I think I’m going to sell my modeler and “just try stuff” your company designs and produces. You have turned me on to pedals. Love all you do. Thanks!
Love this platform!!! Wish I was able to tune in live... Maybe one of this days my schedule will allow me to hang out while Ya'll are going through it-- in the moment Ya'll are going through it. ❤❤❤
Great series, keep 'em coming!
ok :)
This format is awesome! 😃❤
One of the first jhs pedals I ever bought was the sweet tea v2!! And it's been on my board for the last 4 years now!! I love that pedal! I never play without it!! 😅
P.S. I'm a Kansas city man born and raised!! So hello there neighbor!!
Damn, triple post on this one! I'm re-orging my pedal board because I'm setting up a two amp rig, like a wet/dry. Never mind doing clean reverb/delay/chorus on a clean amp next to the distorted amp, I mean, I think we all know that sounds amazing.
BUT, using one amp for higher gain distortion/fuzz or even deep overdrive, and the other amp with a light overdrive, almost totally clean... I LOVE THIS SETUP! Being able to blend, in real time, the dirty and clean signals together IS the answer. I can get as insanely fuzzy as I want, lose all note definition, just run naked in the blizzard... but then I can bring the clean amp up to whatever level I want to retain whatever amount of note definition I want... it is so powerful, and so inspirational!
Previously, when jamming (with myself, or as I call it, writing) I'd often be interrupted by my ear, like I've jumped on my Akira motorcycle with 20 tabs of acid and everything is flowing into a stream of multicolored lights of the post and pre Tokyo apocalypse megaplex... oh but wait, everything comes to a screeching halt. I've lost all note definition by keeping this pedal over 5k rpms. And then I'd spend a half hour trying to dial in a sound with sufficient power and flow while also retaining note clarity... and in the end after all that trouble, each would be compromised, not enough power, not enough clarity. AND the vibe is also gone... wasted time, wasted inspiration.
But with two amps, I get all the power and flow I want, and I get all the definition I want, balanced, basically by two knobs. Piece of cake. I spend a little time feathering the edges of the clean tone, like maybe I want a little break up on it so it feathers, sort of blends, into the far more distorted amp, so it's still like one sound, rather than just a crazy distortion and a chiming bell tone sitting on top of each other.
I've always wanted pedals with clean blend, in fact, I wanna clean blend ALL my pedals. But I don't have the chops, and it gets crazy with phase issues etc. But, simply with two amps, it's so easy to get exactly what I want.
I very strongly recommend it!
I loved the show. Was very illustrative
Dan’s T1M The Pearl is my FAVORITE overdrive EVER! I have one he built at the end of T1M that he used parts from Strymon pedals LOL
👏👏 Well done JHS.....Love this episode! You COULD title this 'Fake it 'til ya Make it!', from Josh's talk from 5:00 - 5:30 . This summer I recently purchased the Double Barrel v4 and I'm really enjoying it. Our band had our first gig in 2.5 years on 8/20/22 at Kutztown University Alumni Jam [same date 13 years later as your V1 plate!!??!? wtf?] and I used the Double Barrel on 'Stay With Me' [Faces] and 'Call Me the Breeze' [Skynyrd Version]. #funfact The original Double Barrel color looks like the 1967 Camaro my parents used to own. More 'Behind the Circuit'!!!!👏👏
Gee thanks Josh & Co.
I have discovered the bliss (from buying about 15 pedals) how my Morning Glory V4 into my Angry Charlie V2 into my Empress Heavy Menace covers sooooooo much thru my 1980 Hiwatt DR 504 OL into an Orange PPC212.
THANKYOU.
Just now came across this channel. Love it. Got yourself a new subscriber.
thank you!
We really need an entire episode with Joshua discussing pens.
I would love pretty much every pedal to have a clean blend knob, especially modulation devices, but as you've shown here, the blend is also amazingly useful with OD/distortion.
Great breakdown! Thank you 🙏
I once owned a custom orange "triple barrel" that I bought off eBay years ago that was essentially the Double Barrel plus the Bomb Boost. If I remember Josh signed and dated the inside and everything. It was awesome...just massive. Ended up trading it for a Morning Glory and Prince of Tone, though now I wished I had kept it, if for no other reason that it's unique.
Sweat Tea and the Double Barrel are two of my all time favorite double drive pedals.
So glad you guys made this video... 2 of my favorite pedals 🤟🤪🎸! "I have both the boxes!" ⬜️🟫
Love the story behind them!
Nice to see the Menatone shout-out. Brian's dirt pedals are my favorite
i loved this behind the circuit! i want more nerdy details on variations and provenance etc....!!!!!
Blend is my favorite feature & almost a deciding factor for purchasing any pedal.
Japanese stationary is 🔥
I have the double barrel and it’s never left my board. I have a prince of tone that doesn’t always stay. I’ve thought about buying another morning glory to pair with my double barrel. It’s very good.
woah, cool!
Thumbs up on the "Behind the Circuit" videos series!
Funny I clicked on thumbs up and then put thumbs up into words.
I have a boutique pedal that’s two Big Muffs in series. Turns out when you crank the gain it’s noisy as all get out lol.
Also, I have several of y’all’s pedals, and I’ve got a whole bunch of them on my Christmas list! Thanks for everything!
I really enjoy my double barrel.its quite a great sounding unit .
Man I love your shows!
I lived in Hamilton Bama during those early days all of us playing guitar wanted JHS pedals because it was a local business and awesomesauce at the touch of a button . Happy to see JHS be what it is today
Dan’s “The Pearl” was my first boutique overdrive pedal, and I still own it! Before that was the T-Rex Yellow Drive and JHS mod Sparkle Drive which I traded for others like MXR 10-band EQ and Fulltone Fulldrive. Man I miss those
I saw Deas Vail play in a club in San Francisco many years ago. Got to meet the band after. Wes is such a nice guy!
Sparkle Drive is so awesome….I keep one on two of my boards, mostly as a clean boost, but a 50/50 clean/gain mix is extremely useful, and it stacks well with other gain pedals.
I hope you keep doing Behind the Circuit videos!!!
oh, we will!
I found out about the blues breaker circuit inverting phase the hard way. A while back I bought a DOD 240 Resistance Mixer and was using it to sum a parallel path for my dirty pedals and clean tone. It was working amazingly. Love blending clean back in when using gain. Highly recommend people try it, but keep an ear out for phase issues with certain pedals. I bought a Kasleder Fx Toxic Twins which is a dual pedal with a tube screamer and blues breaker and added it to my gain section. Clicked on the tube screamer side for the first time and everything was fine. Clicked on the blues breaker side and my sound dropped out almost completely. Took me a couple of minutes to realize my new pedal wasn’t broken and it was phase cancellation, but once I confirmed it with placing it before the split in my signal I had to research the circuit to see if the blues breaker circuit inverted phase or if it was just that one pedals design. It’s interesting that the circuit does that. I’m curious on why. what purpose does it serve in the circuit? Amazing pedal and absolutely love blending clean, but definitely learned a good lesson on the problems can can arise from parallel paths. Definitely worth it to try and experiment though.
Great stuff. I have them both. The double barrel is my favorite.
I learned about the Sweet Tea when I saw it on the pedal board for Diarrhea Planet. I have a JHS Calhoun, but I guess it is no longer in production.
I loved Deas Vail… “Birds” gets me every time.
Time for a 6 series - two in one versions with 3 series pedals, all for $160! Delay + reverb, overdrive + compressor, fuzz + distortion, hall reverb + tremolo, screamer + overdrive and so on
I used to have a Jekyll and Hyde pedal. The triangle version. I loved it!
JHS History is as cool as guitar history, thanks guys.
hey thanks!
@@jhspedals would like to hear about all the hurdles Josh had to clear building this stellar company, from day one. Might as well write an autobio
@@ousley421 I’d love to see that
Jesus, you reference all the pedals I use, Sparkle Drive, Tone Press......I love these pedals
Awesome video thanks for sharing I have the sweet tea its a great pedal.
Could you guys do a more technical show one day about what makes your pedals different from the circuits they're based on? What you changed and why?
I would understand if you didn't. After all, a magician never reveals his tricks and all that. But I find the designs of these pedals fascinating, especially how few truly unique designs are out there and yet there is so much variation in the sound of all the pedals.
I love my Double Barrel, it's my favourite pedal - if I could, I'd marry it.
Love the pen shoutouts
thank you ✒
This is one of two channels that I give a "like" before I watch the episode @jhspedals
This was so fun to watch while I washed the dishes
Picked up a Sweet Tea to replace and ageing black Marshall Guv'nor a few years ago, very cool pedal!
Love these Behind The Circuit episodes. It’s very insightful to see the progression of thought and the creative journey of your products. Maybe a ‘History Rocks’ stinger would work 😎
Keep them coming please.
Pedal Request: a re-run of the Stateline please 🙏🏻
Owned both but stuck with the sweet tea and love them! It would be cool if they did a sweet tea with the moonshine side interchangeable with the morning glory and the angry Charly side with the @AT drive unique controls.
Someone told me that J Mascis said the way he deals with noise from high gain is to never stop playing
Love my sweat tea. Bring back the other teas in the lineup.
a friend brought over his Sweet Tea pedal. I currently use the Paul Gilbert pedal with a Boss SD-1.........now I want to switch over. It has a similar texture, but with way more bottom end and warmth. I NEED it
love this
My Kilt and my Packrat typically live together on my board. Kilt > Packrat. The expander circuit up front makes everything sag, swell, decay; pick your buzzword.
Get this message to Josh please... That hoodie is your color. Keep rocking it
Behind the Circuit: THE KILT!!! Maybe compare it to other hard clippers?
Just came here to say thanks for creating the Emperor and thank you Nick for your great taste because I decided to get it after hearing him use it so many times. I thought that's actually really pleasing for a chorus and I don't like chorus. I was wrong. I love chorus I just hadn't tried the Emperor yet! It sounds so much better than even the videos and demos show. Wow
woah, cool!
I started a successful business with a friend. The key was the balance between us, me maybe being diagnosably OCD (not the pedal), and indefatigable. But really, we never said, "No" to (crazy) client requests. We'd get a ("simple") request Friday afternoon for a project going to print on Monday, we'd already worked crazy hours to wrap up the project so we could actually see our ladies over the weekend, and saying, "Yes" meant the whole weekend gone, at least 20 hours for each of us, so 40 hours over the weekend... and we said "Yes!" over and over again until we were ragged and eventually shut the biz down. But we went from $3 an hour profit the first year (survived in LA by working 20 hours a day, for realz) to low-mid six figures in the last 3 quarters before we turned the lights off.
Maybe we should have said, "No" more often, and actually retained some semblance of life, maybe we would have continued the biz, lol. But seriously... just say, "Yes" to all the crazy requests you get if you're the kind of person that will deliver, no matter what, and customers will always come back because they know you'll deliver. Who'd go back to a company that was like, "Nope, we can't do that because we've never done it before..." LOSERS!
Everything we did, we'd never done before, and this was a time before all human knowledge being available on TH-cam, a time before TH-cam :)
Please don’t stop making these. I don’t have either one of them yet.
we won't :)
43:06. That's the one I'm working on right now. To lock down those designs and not keep thinking about adding or modifying more stuff.
The Pearl was an awesome pedal!
Sweet Tea V3 kills it 😎 probably my favorite Marshall high gain pedal, plexi a different beast, Bogner LA Grange captures that best....Josh you hear me!!!!, have 10 of your pedals 😋
man i wish the stateline would make a comeback.
I LOVE these episodes. You can do 100 of them and I won't get bored.
Also, if I may ask: there were a lot of hoodies. Is your office that cold or do you both have malaria?
josh scott likes it cold....
We need the triple!!
We need 3 pedals in one enclosure (angry charlie, morning glory, moonshine)
Lots of old Peavey tube amps(Mace, Deuce, etc) had a parallel input so you could blend the clean and lead channels.
I love you guys at JHS. I'd like to buy all of your pedals, but I don't think it'll get away with that! One at a time maybe...
Being not a huge fan of soft clippers, I couldn't warm up to the Double Barrel - but I ADORE the Calhoun. Sorry that the V2 didn't stay in the lineup.
I can imagine a lovely iteration, a Calhoun V3 if you will, with a loop to allow you to have the Firefly stage at the front of your chain and the Twin Twelve at the END, with all your delays and whatnot between. Or vice versa, although really the tonebender oughtta be up front.
That would be RAD.
Oh my god, Deas Vail! I've not heard that name in a while. I listened to Birds and Cages a bunch.
I love my Sweet Tea, v. 2. ❤
I was debating which of these to buy just last week, and ultimately bought the Moonshine and Angry Charlie as separate pedals instead, primarily for the side jacks and secondarily for the added versatility with other pedals. If the Sweet Tea simply had side jacks I probably would have gone with just that, saved a little money, but I suppose from JHS' point of view it works out better (or for the shop; I don't know which of you profits most from UK sales) that I bought two rather than two-in-one.
I bought a cup of coffee at least twice this week. I should’ve saved that money for a Double Barrel. 😢
I dig my Double Barrel - it's a staple.
More behind the circuitttt
literally never listen to any rando commenter or forum poster or review that says a pedal is "noisy." It's almost never the pedal! Could be a bad power supply, bad wiring in their house, turning on a ton of gain in combination with other pedals, or using anything into a cranked amp.... noise exists and let's all learn to deal with it please! It's part of the fun!
lol! we typically go through this list of stuff before people send in noisy pedals for repair.
