{"product_id":"jhs-effects-crayon","title":"JHS Effect Pedals - Crayon","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003eJHS Crayon\u003c\/strong\u003e is essentially a stripped-down version of the Kansas City, Missouri's, Colour Box pedal, but focusing entirely on its killer Direct-In Distortion effect. First heard on the Beatles' \"Revolution 1,\" direct-in distortion is what you get when plugging your guitar directly into a mixing console - it has a super-compressed bite and fuzz tone that's since been implemented by countless groups - Pink Floyd (\"Dogs\") and Radiohead (\"Bodysnatchers\") especially come to mind.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis iteration removed the three-band EQ and XLR function, and equipped it with Master, Pre-Vol, and EQ controls. Master is your standard volume control; Pre-Volume acts as a drive or fuzz control that increases the overdrive; and EQ is an active tone control, flat at 12 o'clock, more bass\/less treble when turned left, and more treble\/less bass when turned right. This gives you a lot of tonal options. Additionally, it has a Hi-Pass switch that activates the two frequencies, 200Hz and 750Hz.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf you're looking for a straightforward direct-in distortion pedal, then the \u003cstrong\u003eJHS Crayon\u003c\/strong\u003e is right for you. It comes in a standard pedal casing so it won't take up much room on your board, and is incredibly versatile overall. Requires 9V DC negative center power supply.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"JHS","offers":[{"title":"Default","offer_id":9183964165,"sku":"JHSCRAYON","price":199.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0202\/0250\/products\/JHS-Pedals-Crayon-top-large.jpg?v=1487863101","url":"https:\/\/massstreetmusic.mom\/products\/jhs-effects-crayon","provider":"Mass Street Music","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
