Up for sale a JHS Pedals Bonsai Overdrive Nine Classic Green Box Overdrive Effect Pedal w/Box - #01023930!  This effect pedal is a Used Model in Excellent Cosmetic Condition and in Perfect Working Condition.  On this one, there are some scratches, marks, barely few tiny nicks and few other signs of wear here and there (see 9th to 16th pictures), but really nothing major.  Unit comes in its Original Box.     - JHS PEDALS BONSAIIn 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 our Muffuletta (released 2015), 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 housed 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 chose along with all the quirks, drift, vintage mojo, and individuality that a vintage pedal has.  -SPECIFICATIONS:Bonsai Modes:- 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 asymmetrical 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 and 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.Controls:- Volume Knob- Drive Knob- Tone Knob- Modes KnobThis Pedal Requires Standard 9V DV Negative Power, Consumes 20 mA, and Measures 2.6"x4.8"x1.6".-All our items are fully verified by our pro technician and/or adjusted by our pro luthier before being very carefully packed by our pro service team here at the shop prior to shipment, buy with confidence!---------------------------------------------------------------------Canadian customers must pay any applicable sales taxes. Please refer to the shipping and payments details for prices.**Depending on where you are located in Canada, free shipping may not apply to certain heavy or oversize orders. You can contact us for confirmation before buying.Shipping cost to USA includes lower 48 states only.For any other locations, please send us an email for a quote! We Ship Worldwide!!!To international buyers (outside Canada): Import duties, taxes, and charges are not included in the item price or shipping cost.
