Time Again to Drink Deep at the Chalice of Overdrive


Sup the Holy Noises......

This week it seems, our journey takes us screaming to the depths of Drive. 

There wil be crunch and heft, grit and cut. The Trembles of Titanic Tone

Monstrous, yet strangely beautiful.

Our fearless leader awaits to take us deeper. Deeper than we've ever gone before.

Take it away my friend.

And Finally.......





JHS Pedals Morning Glory V4 Overdrive

Featuring double the headroom as the previous model, a new boost mode incorporated into the gain toggle and a tap switch input for essentially serving up two pedals in one on the fly, the JHS Morning Glory V4 brings even more gain-laden sparkly goodness than ever before. Still able to dial in that perfect transparent overdrive in a wide range of gain from bluesy warmth to screaming breakup, this flagship of JHS retains its place as the centrepiece firework on any board.

V4 of the Morning Glory takes that overdrive magic to all new heights. The volume dial now pushes up to two times the headroom of the previous model. It really does deliver a gloriously crisp, mature tone which has been the pursuit of thousands of guitarists for decades.

The new gain switch opens up an even wider variety of overdrive sounds. This little beauty activates a new boost mode, driving the tone further into high gain territories than it ever could before. On the side of the enclosure you'll also find a small hi cut switch, letting you remove a bit of top-end harshness in a high gain setup. Also, the Red Remote now works with the Morning Glory V4! That means you can hit the Red Remote footswitch to toggle the gain levels without flipping any of the toggles.

We run it through guitar, bass and synthesizer, through all the settings, with no talking whatsoever so you can just kick back and listen! Shop HERE.
