This week JHS Pedals shipped and sold its one millionth pedal. I started this company eighteen years ago — accidentally — on a plastic folding table in the attic of our townhouse in Jackson, Mississippi. This week we celebrated a million little metal boxes later, and in this entry I read you the speech I gave to the fifty people in the room.

I don't own any JHS products, but the JHS youtube channel was an amazing resource when I was getting back into guitar a few years ago. Probably 85% of the videos I've watched on the JHS channel didn't feature a single JHS product. He's done great deep dives on the history and variety of a given type of effect. I'll probably pick up a Morning Glory at some point.

    Josh and the folks at JHS are great voices for the broader pedal community. Nothing pretentious and they’ve shown over and over again how much great tone you can get from even cheap pedals. They’ve even embraced modeling which was kind of controversial among their fans. I love learning about the history of different pedal companies too. Their passion really comes through.
