JHS Pedals has partnered with Lari Basilio to produce The Violet – a new signature distortion pedal that promises to offer “a new take” on the effect.
As JHS founder Josh Scott explains in a launch video, The Violet has been a long time coming: he and Basilio began their collaboration back in 2019, and for roughly the past two years the Ibanez signature artist has been using an elusive overdrive pedal prototype that, until this day, has remained a mystery.
