JHS Pedals founder Josh Scott’s gear recommendations carry some serious weight. Indeed, previous nods – not least his somewhat infamous tip-off on DigiTech’s Bad Monkey – have seen used prices rocket at alarming rates. Recently, though, Scott dedicated a new livestream to a distortion pedal he says is “the most cool and unique distortion device I've seen in decades.”
And it’s not some out-of-production obscurity, either. It’s a pedal that was only announced in January and is available for an obtainable price of around $200-250: namely, the Korg Nu:Tekt Harmonic Distortion.
