JHS Crayon Overdrive Guitar Effects Pedal

In 1968, the Beatles’ Revolution sent a piercing guitar tone through the speakers of the world. This tonal technique of plugging a guitar straight into a mixing console is now referred to as Direct-In Distortion. The JHS Pedals Crayon gets you these legendary tones faster and in a more guitarist-friendly way than ever before.

The JHS Pedals Color Box is amazing. It’s powerful, it’s versatile, it sounds stunning as a guitar pedal or as a recording preamp, and sometimes, it’s a bit too much for guitarists. That’s why the Crayon was created. This straightforward pedal harnesses the exact same gritty preamp tones of the Color Box and puts them in a smaller stomp with a simplified control layout. 

Three knobs control the gain, output, and tone of the pedal, while a Hi-Pass switch accesses even more aggressive characters. If you’re one of the musicians who is madly in love with those straight-to-console fuzz tones but don’t need all the extras, the JHS Pedals Crayon was made just for you.
