You’d think they’d have 26 knobs and switches no one actually uses.

About JHS, I think he started putting these letters on the pedals that he modded for people, which was how he started, long before there were tons of info on the internet about anything and he probably didn't go for the resemblance with the British JHS
JHS has been known both sides of the pond to anyone who had a passing interest in guitar pedals since before the internet was a concept.
He knew what he was doing.

Apart from huge swathes of people across the effects industry. And, indirectly, all the people affected by the church he subscribes to's version of faith. Fuck this guy.
And he'll have
so knowingly nicked JHS from John Hornby Skewes - he's banged on about Tonebenders enough to know what he's doing. Sports Direct brand ethics meets boutique prices.
(I may be hungover).
So you agree with me but you're shouting at me? Good one.
Check out his sub and view numbers and tell me people aren't digging him these days in spite of all this - you're wrong. He is a populist icon in the pedal world and it's fucking upsetting

Au contraire, I was +1ing what you were saying. He's a prick. As regards his subs etc, we live in a world where pricks are doing numbers.

Ah right - misunderstanding
WHILE I'M HERE THOUGH
If you had I dunno a modicum of sense surely you would block colour these pedals into different colours so that at least you could tell them apart on I dunno a DARK STAGE or something?

No problems for the Worship band crowd who probably buy these things though.

Fuck this boring stupid shit.
JHS pedals are fucking boring and stupid enough to begin with, and this fucking prick who is known to straight up steal circuits and give the money to his extremist cult goes and makes pedals EVEN MORE STUPID AND BORING than they were before.
One of my biggest regrets in life is letting that sack of smashed assholes shake my hand.

If I ever get a chance for Mike to build me a pedal, I’d call it “Jesus.�
