Describing sound has got to be one of the most abstract things one can delve in, but if done right, the idea expressed can be broadly understood and properly interpreted. In describing the JHS Sweet Tea, "molten glass" makes the most sense…to us at least lol. Demo-ing this pedal for the first time a few weeks back at our boy Thomas' place while creating "Dangerous Love", it was easy to notice how awesome this pedal sounded. This two-in-one pedal with responsive controls for easy tweaking and a je ne se quoi that slices through the mix, creates a lane for itself, making it hard for pedals with similar functionality to keep up. The ballsy nature of the distortion side ("Angry Charlie") perfectly couples with the sugar sweet overdrive ("808") to create a match made in guitar tone heaven. The functions of the controls are below and you can be certain you'll hear this puppy snarl and scream on our latest tracks.

Left Side – "Angry Charlie"

Volume: Controls the output volume.
Drive: Controls the amount of drive or gain just like a tube amp being cranked at high volumes.
Tone: This is a tone cut like you would find on an amp. Left is brighter, right is darker.
Presence: Just like the presence knob on an amp, this allows you to dial in the perfect amount of high-end for compatibility with any amp. It works as a presence cut, left is brighter, right is darker.

Right Side – "JHS 808"

Volume: Controls the output volume.
Drive: Controls the amount of drive or gain just like a tube amp being cranked at high volumes.
Tone: This is a tone cut like you would find on an amp. Right is brighter, Left is darker.
3 Way Gain Toggle: Down is stock saturated mode, middle is boost mode, and up is crunch mode.
