JHS 3 Series Compressor Pedal JHS

Our Take:

Part of their 3 Series, the new 3 Series Compressor pedal from JHS is the epitome of bang for your buck: simple, and affordable – but by no means cheap! The 3 Series Compressor isn’t trying anything fancy; it’s a no-nonsense compressor that can do anything from subtle boosting and tone sculpting, to squished, near-distorted tones – all accessible via 3 control knobs and a toggle that, when flipped, engages a bright EQ to lift your tone in super muddy situations. Housed in a sleek, sturdy white stompbox, and priced at $99, its a reliable, affordable Compressor that’s perfect for the working musician who needs to clean up their tone game.
