JHS Pedals guitar effects

JHS Pedals is a prominent American manufacturer of guitar effects pedals, recognized for its significant influence in the boutique pedal market. Founded in 2007 by Josh Scott in Jackson, Mississippi, the company grew from a small modification business into a global brand. Today, JHS operates out of its headquarters in Grandview, Missouri, where it designs and manufactures its core lineup of pedals.

While many of its premium and signature pedals are hand-built or assembled in the United States, JHS also produces the '3 Series'—a more affordable line of pedals designed to provide high-quality tones at a lower price point. While these are engineered by JHS in Missouri, they utilize global manufacturing resources to remain accessible. The brand remains privately held and is still led by its founder, Josh Scott, who has also gained fame through 'The JHS Show,' a popular YouTube series dedicated to the history and appreciation of guitar pedals.
