Key Features
The JHS Pedals Crayon Direct-In Distortion is a preamp and distortion pedal, moving on from its predecessor the JHS colour box to a more streamlined and simple design. The controls featured on this unit are Master, Pre, Tilt and Hi-Pass. These controls give you optimal reign over your parameters letting you sculpt the sound you require. The crayon excels at Direct-In fuzz tones, but with its versatile control options, you can achieve any sound you desire, from subtle overdrive to the classic full-on distortion. Finished in a glossy white and red paint, this durable and highly versatile distortion/preamp unit is ideal for any guitar player.

JHS Pedals has evolved from a one man, bedroom operation, to a world recognised boutique effects pedal company. All JHS pedals feature a simplistic design, with hand-wired components. Josh Scott, founder of JHS Pedals, began by modifying pedals he had on his personal board, years of touring and session work led Josh to realise exactly what it is that players want from their pedals which meant building them from the ground up to achieve perfection.
JHS Pedals are hand-built in Kansas City USA, the company has a core value that JHS builders will never be replaced by robots. Every boutique JHS pedal is made and tested by a highly skilled pedal builder to ensure that every JHS pedal is crafted to perfection.
