Blended from circuit-archetype lineage, dynamic feel, tone-signal overlap and tone-vector distance — the tone vector itself is derived from editorial description text, not a measured acoustic signal, so this reflects how similarly the catalog copy describes the two, not a lab measurement. Shown only within a gear class, and only where there's enough evidence to be meaningful.71% — moderately similar

The JHS Kilt 10th Anniversary is a limited edition of the Kilt marking ten years of the pedal, described by JHS as an overdrive, fuzz and distortion in one — a wider remit than the standard V2, which is voiced around British amp distortion alone. Anniversary editions of this kind typically add circuit options as well as cosmetics. Buyers comparing it with the V2 should confirm which additional voices are included.
The JHS Kilt V3 is the third-generation version of JHS Pedals' British-voiced distortion pedal, refined through multiple iterations to better capture the blooming harmonic character of vintage British amplification. The V3 incorporates circuit improvements addressing specific tonal and dynamic criticisms of earlier versions. It delivers warm, harmonically complex distortion with natural saturation bloom suited to classic rock and British blues rock applications.
