Dunlop JHM S1
Dunlop · pedal
The Dunlop JHMS1 is part of the Authentic Hendrix '68 Shrine Series, a Fuzz Face Distortion in a mini enclosure that captures two sides of Jimi Hendrix's fuzz tone via a toggle switch. One position delivers the aggressive, cutting silicon based crunch Hendrix favored later in his career, while the other offers the warm, smooth saturation of the germanium fuzz he used in his early years. This gives players both classic Fuzz Face voices in a single compact pedal. It suits psychedelic, classic rock and blues rock players who want authentic Hendrix era Fuzz Face tones, from smooth, woolly germanium warmth to bright, biting silicon snarl, in a pedalboard friendly format.
