Description:

 

In the late 1970's the overdrive pedal was arguably perfected when Japanese engineers designed the sound that we now know as the heart and soul of so many of our favorite artists, recordings and sounds. Players ranging from The Edge, Trey Anastasio, Buddy Guy, Kirk Hammett, John Mayer, SRV, Carlos Santana and thousands more from every possible genre have utilized and depended on this classic iconic green box. If a single effect pedal was chosen to board a Voyager 3 mission and be solely responsible for showing the universe the sound of overdrive, it would undoubtably be Tube Screamer. It is probably the most produced and sold pedal in the history of guitar pedals!   The Bonsai is our tribute to one of the greatest pedals ever created.

Following in the steps of the our Mufuletta, the Bonsai utilizes a simple rotary knob to switch through nine classic, vintage, rare, or hard to find variations of the Screamer. Creating the Bonsai became an archeological dig of sorts that sent us deep into the history of this circuit by examining dozens of versions, variations and replications. At the end of it all, Josh chose nine of his personal and favorite units and we painstakingly replicated every nuance and aspect of each pedal. One of the most challenging parts of this project was accounting for component drift as many of these pedals were decades old and the internal components had strayed from their original values. Each pedal was individually replicated using our Audio Precision analyzer and various other methods that allowed us to perfectly replicate every aspect of the sound and feel of the unit. It's important to know that the Bonsai is not a "box of mods," it is exact replications of these nine units all house in one box! The Bonsai is exact replication, not emulation. When you choose a mode on the Bonsai rotary, you are actually activating components specific to each mode and playing the unit that Josh choose along with all the quirks, drift, vintage mojo, and individuality that a vintage pedal has.

Lets take a look at the 9 modes of the Bonsai based on the 9 pedals we have chosen...

OD-1 - 1977

An overall brighter and slightly higher gain mode that does not utilize the Tone knob. This mode also inverts signal just like the original and has symmetrical clipping. The OD-1 is magical at boosting other drives or amps into singing saturation.

TS-808 - 1979

The classic low gain with that signature pronounced mid range.

TS-9 - 1982

Nearly identical to the TS-808 but with a slightly more pushed low-mid range.

MSL, Power or L Series - 1985

Though metal is in the name, this sound doesn’t quite inspire the modern metal djent we think of. Still it has a higher gain sound with a more low end and an overall more gooey feel.

TS-10 - 1986

Made famous by John Mayer, this model is a slight upgrade from the TS9 for the late ’80s. Bluesy, crisp, more low end roll off and low gain.

Exar OD-1 1989

The EXAR is a Polish made TS-style pedal that has a slightly different drive character with a little more gain than the classic screamers as well as a slightly more transparent feel.

TS-7 (+mode) - 1999

The hot mode on this version gives you the highest gain sound in the Bonsai. More low end and dirt fill out the tone to have you shredding away.

Keeley Mod Plus - 2002

Robert Keeley’s classic mod tightens up the tone on the original giving you smoother mid range and high frequencies, and increased bass response.

JHS Strong Mod - 2008

Our own mod we’ve been doing since 2008 is much cleaner and overall more powerful. The mode has more pronounced higher nd low end drop offs.

With the JHS Pedals’ Bonsai you can get the classic sounds of nine Tubescreamers in one pedal. Let the Bonsai help you find your overdrive zen.

This pedal requires standard 9V DC Negative power, consumes less than 100mA, and measures 2.2"x4.8"x1.6".

Best eye cream ever
I’m in my 40s and I’ve never been able to wear an eye cream without irritation. I also have eczema. I recently had extreme allergic reactions secondary to a house flood. this product was immediately calming producing reduction in itching redness, and scaliness within 24 hours. After a month, I have less fine lines and my eyelids are incredibly soft. I will absolutely buy this on repeat and I have few products I use often.

Absorbing moisture
Size: 10.14 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I really like this lotion. It’s fragrance free, lightweight, absorbs well, not a thick lotion that sits on top of the skin but absorbs into the skin. Incredibly moisturizing and not irritating for sensitive skin. Great product!

My holy grail
Size: 10.14 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
This is my favourite body lotion by far. I've been using it for over a year and there is comparison how it makes my skin feel - extremely soft and hydrated. The biggest difference i notice the next day - it feels just moisturized. I live in Colorado and in winter I used to wake up at night due to my skin being dry and itchy. Just hours after I applied lotion. Not with this one. It also absorbs very quickly. I've also been using on my face under sunscreen in the morning.

Helping my PR
Size: 10.14 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Helping my Pityriasis rosea! Redness going away and flare spots clearing up very quickly. I’ve had PR for about 6 months now and I haven’t had any other product help so much so fast. I think it’s mostly the niacin but this is a nice product.

Great Overall
Size: 10.14 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
This stuff is outstanding. Don't stop making it. Great clean ingredients, big size, and very affordable - unheard of. I use it on my face, neck, and shaved head. I have large pore, oily, acne prone skin and this stuff works outstanding to mitigate the general dryness of nightly Tretinoin application. It hasn't caused any breakouts for me - anything comedogenic does, but this is not. It's too heavy for me to apply to go out of the house (leaves a light greasy shine on me and I like being matte), but it's great for when at home or overnight. My skin looks fab. Recommended
