Jangly modulation, weird in-and-out phasing, dizzying rotary sounds – all these legendary effects have been crammed into the Unicorn V2, JHS Pedals’ very own Uni-Vibe. Give the likes of Hendrix’s Star Spangled Banner or Pink Floyd’s Breathe a listen to get an idea of the unusual sounds this mythical creature can make.

The Unicorn is here to add movement and intrigue to your guitar sound. Working equally well stacked on clean or distorted tones, the Unicorn produces washy pulses of goodness ready to take your creativity to the next level.

What’s new in V2?

The pedal is now half the size it once was with a smaller price tag, with all the same fun sounds!

Sounds

Based on the original analogue photocell topology, the Unicorn requires a good amount of care and attention when dialling in your effect. This is the real deal after all. The middle Dry/Wet switch flicks between the base Uni-Vibe sound and a softer vibrato.

Each volume, speed and depth dial is extremely sensitive – and that’s where the magic lies. As you turn the depth clockwise, you get a wetter engulfing blend. Ratio lets you select half note, quarter note, dotted eighth and triplet rhythms for full time customisation.

Twist the speed and the pulses stretch from smooth waves to frantic crashes. Alternatively you can use the handy tap tempo footswitch.

Rotary

Rotary pedals recreate the swirling, moving sound of a rotating speaker cabinet, adding rich modulation and a sense of motion to guitar tones. They typically simulate the changing pitch and volume caused by spinning speakers, producing anything from subtle shimmer to deep, pulsating swirl. Rotary effects are often used for clean and lightly driven sounds to add depth, movement, and a classic, organ-inspired character.

Vibe

Vibrato

Vibrato refers to a guitar pedal effect that modulates pitch slightly up and down, creating movement and a sense of wobble in the sound. Unlike tremolo, which changes volume, vibrato affects pitch only, producing anything from subtle shimmer to pronounced, warbling textures. It is often used to add character, depth, and vintage-style modulation to guitar tones.

Volume

Volume pedals control the output level of a guitar signal using a foot-operated treadle. They allow smooth volume swells, dynamic control during playing, and easy muting between songs. Volume pedals can be placed at different points in the signal chain to either control overall loudness or adjust gain and drive behaviour when positioned before distortion or overdrive pedals.
