JOSHTORTION

 

[Nostradoomus]

In all honesty, anyone I’ve ever met named Josh has been a complete and utter douche. So it tracks.

"Yer Joshin' me"

"Just Joshin Around" = "IAIGF"?





"JORSH, NyUcK nYuCk!"

 

[HamishR]

Guvnoronvug?

 

[HamishR]

Got it! Shredmasteretsamderhs.

Guys, I know it’s easy to make fun of Josh.

That’s all I had to say.

BOOM! Triple entendre meme

In the teaser video they released, it looked like an xlr connection was involved along with the 1/4 jacks, so I was thinking some sort of preamp

I saw that, maybe a Color Box with a Tascam front end?

Actual tascam or modded demo tape do you think? Is three gain stages a total, or the tascam block alone?

 

[Robert]

I'm just throwing out guesses, I have no idea. It could be a Tubescreamer.

I barely comprehend plain English half the time, cryptic messages might as well be Chinese.

On TGP someone was saying some obscure Japanese drive pedal. Seems pretty plausible (and kinda lame)

Only thing missing is the XLR from the video, which doesn't necessarily have to mean anything at all I suppose.

I am guessing 424 based on the riddle.

I built the recent Aion version and unfortunately I found it pretty unremarkable. But since they already did all the work, it would make financial sense for Josh to just borrow their trace and call it a day as the TGP crowd lines up to pay $279 a piece for a generic, farty OD with clipart cassette tape graphics.

 

[Bricksnbeatles]

What would the three layers of gain be for a 424 though. And 5 knobs?

 

[sticky1138]

Forward and back = 424, could also be a reference to tape
For your play = play button
Made in Japan = Tascam

Some additional parameter so that it adds something new and doesn't seem like a ripoff. Comp? Mids? An extra OD/boost tacked on before/after the circuit? But there really is no dressing up something that sounds this uninspiring on its own (coming from someone who really wanted to like it).

I talked with Josh recently and I really got the impression that they're (JHS collectively) putting in a bit more effort than that these days.

If you look at the Tascam service manual, there's a bit more going on compared to the Aion project. Not saying it would make a difference if it was included, but maybe?

Regardless, this wouldn't be the first 424 pedal.
