World recognised boutique pedals The JHS Pedals Bonsai 9-Way Overdrive comes from a company in JHS that evolved from one man bedroom operation – to a world recognised boutique effects pedal company featuring simplistic designs with hand-wired components. Josh Scott founder of JHS pedals began by modifying pedals he had on his own personal board. Over years of touring and session work he had realized exactly what is was players wanted from their pedals which meant building them from the ground up using quality components to achieve pedal perfection. Overdrive Models OD-1 – 1977 The OD-1 -1977 is an overall bright and slightly high gain overdrive which doesnt use the tone control. When selecting this mode the pedal inverts its signal just like the original and delivers a symmetrical clipping. The OD-1 is the ideal choice for boosting other drives and amps into singing saturation giving your tone a magical feel. TS-808 – 1979 The TS-808 – 1979 is perfect for giving your sound that classic low gain with a signature pronounced middle range. TS-9 – 1982 The TS-9 offers an almost identical tone quality as the TS-808 but provides a slightly more pushed mid-range ideal for creating extra grunge and thunder. MSL Power or L Series – 1985 The MSL mode delivers an iconic metal tone which may not quite inspire the modern metal style we think of but its perfect for those more classis metal vibes. Selecting this mode will provide your tone with an incredibly high gain sound with a powerful low-end and an overall more gooey feeling than some of the other modes. TS-10 – 1986 The TS-10 mode embodies the very pedal made famous by John Mayer offering a slightly upgraded version for a more bluesy and crisp tone with excellent low-end roll of and low gain. Exar OD – 1989 The Exar OD-1 is a TS-style overdriven pedal made in Poland offering a marginally different drive character with a little more gain than classic overdrives. It also offers a slightly more transparent feel providing a nice mix of overdriven and clean soundscapes. TS-7 (+mode) – 1999 The TS-7 mode provides a hot tone offering the highest gain sound the Bonsai offers. Designed with an incredible amount of low-end and dirt fill out the TS-7 is the ideal choice for delivering killer tones and shredding licks. Keeley Mod Plus – 2002 The Keeley Mod Plus offers the classic mod Robert Keeley used to tighten up the originals tone delivering an incredibly smooth midrange and high-end with an increased bass response . JHS Strong Mod – 2008 The JHS Strong Mod mode delivers JHSs own modification theyve used since 2008 offering a cleaner and generally more powerful sound than the other modes. The Strong Mod provides the pedal with a pronounced high-end with an incredible low-end drop off.

Guitar Effect Pedal
A guitar pedal, also known as an effects pedal, is a device used by guitarists to alter the sound of their instrument in various ways. These pedals are typically small, foot-operated units that are connected in a signal chain between the guitar and the amplifier. They can modify the guitar’s tone, pitch, and dynamics by applying different effects such as distortion, reverb, delay, chorus, and more. Guitar pedals come in both analog and digital formats, and they allow musicians to create a wide range of sounds, enhancing their musical expression and creativity. They are essential tools for guitarists in genres ranging from rock and blues to jazz and electronic music.

Overdrive
Overdrive is a popular guitar effect that creates a warm, distorted sound by amplifying the signal of an electric guitar, typically using a pedal or an amp’s built-in circuit. The effect simulates the natural distortion that occurs when a tube amplifier is pushed to its limit, creating a rich, harmonic response that adds sustain, warmth, and character to the tone. Overdrive pedals are commonly used to add grit and growl to a clean tone without the harshness of full distortion.
The overdrive effect works by boosting the input signal, causing the amplifier to break up and clip the waveform, resulting in a smooth, musical distortion. This is often more subtle and less aggressive than other forms of distortion, making overdrive pedals ideal for blues, classic rock, and country players who seek a dynamic sound that responds to their playing touch. Overdrive pedals can be used in conjunction with other effects like delay and reverb to shape a more complex, evolving sound. Popular overdrive pedals include the Ibanez Tube Screamer, the Fulltone OCD, and the Boss OD-3, each offering different tonal characteristics, from smooth and bluesy to punchy and aggressive.
The Bonsai is our tribute to one of the greatest pedals ever created, the Tube Screamer A Simple rotary knob switches through nine classic, vintage, rare, or hard to find variations of the Screamer The Bonsai Does Not emulate these pedals, it is exact replications of these nine units all housed in one box Choosing a mode on the Bonsai rotary actually activates components specific to each unit
A pedal that could go from overdrive to distortion and all the way to fuzz A passionate homage to a landmark pedal that changed music history Uses a unique digital runway system to direct the paths of 261 components through 40 individual switches to achieve a fluid, analog multimode switching Over 100 different RAT specimens were studied to achieve this unique circuitry 9 unique iterations of the ProCo Rat in 1 stomp box
Made in Kansas City USA This pedal represents years of Josh playing around with the legendary Tube Screamer circuit and wanting to offer those changes in an affordable package You will find more clean headroom, better usability as a boost, more versatile drive and tone controls as well as a more pleasing frequency response This may be the most well-balanced Tube Screamer on earth, but that’s for you to decide Runs on 9V DC negative center power and consumes 12mA
Choose between two amplifiers in flight Choose between two guitars without disconnecting the cables Opera 9V Negative This pedal is passive, but requires power for the LED light In any situation you enter and go out, this pedal will do your work
Compact and versatile tone-machine When both toggles are down, you are in the lightest gain setting, amp-like chimney breakup G1 flipped up adds a touch of drive for more riffy grit G2 flipped up puts you almost into distortion land, with more saturation and sustain for lead tones Both toggles flipped up sends the Kilt V2 into almost uncontrollable gated fuzz/distortion that will cut through anything
