In 2016, Josh had the idea to develop a circuit that covered the best high-gain distortion tones of the '90s and 2000s, a sound that embodied the post-grunge alternative rock movement. JHS started by looking at pedals, then amps, and after exploring the typical paths of circuitry, they took a sharp turn and started from scratch. Eight years later, the pedal is finished and ready to take you to the next level. The Hard Drive goes harder and further than any gain or distortion JHS has released so far.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eA FRESH APPROACH\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eA fresh approach to achieving high gain distortion in a pedal format, the Hard Drive includes cascaded gain stages and a hard limiting circuit, followed by a class AB amplifier section that drives a \"sweepable midrange\" EQ and Baxandall bass and treble controls. With its generous external controls, the Hard Drive lets you dial in everything from grinding tube amp crunch to a bona fide wall of distortion that can easily cut through any stage or studio mix.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eHONORING CLIFF SMITH\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe Hard Drive holds a special place in JHS history as the final design work of JHS's former head engineer, Cliff Smith. The prototype and design had been finalized just weeks before he passed away in 2021.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCONTROLS\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eVolume\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eControls the overall volume of the pedal.
