Description
Blues guitar legend Josh Smith and Poly Effects have teamed up to create the Josh Smith Flat V, a killer overdrive pedal with tons of exciting tricks up its sleeve. This innovative unit features two separate gain channels, six preset slots, and an advanced slider-based interface, giving it unrivaled sonic versatility. Whether you're looking to create hot, sizzling overdrive tones or even complex tremolos via the blend feature, this all-analog stompbox is a bold tool that's bound to elevate your performance.
The Poly Effects Josh Smith Flat V boasts two separate dirt channels. Channel A features a transistor-based gain circuit with selectable diodes, while Channel B offers an amp-style gain circuit with cascaded JFETs instead of traditional valves. Channel B is also shaped using synth-style resonant filters, giving it a unique sound that'll bring your leads to life.
But that's not all - each of the Josh Smith Flat V's presets has two sides, so musicians can assign two different values to each slider. Using the waveshape control alongside the speed and sense sliders, players can change how the pedal switches between the values. What does that mean? When set right, musicians can create complex tremolos, envelope filters, and auto-wah effects, making the Josh Smith Flat V far more capable than your average overdrive pedal.
Additionally, the Josh Smith Flat V offers full MIDI control over all parameters, making it perfect for live performances. Need a hotter, grittier sound mid-song to fuel your solos? Assign your presets using MIDI, and you'll be able to transition between sounds seamlessly. That's only a fraction of this pedal's potential; the MIDI functionality opens up a wealth of creative possibilities.
If you want to enhance your live performances or take studio recordings to the next level, the Poly Effects Josh Smith Flat V is an excellent choice. It's a cutting-edge overdrive pedal that pushes far beyond the boundaries of standard dirt stompboxes, making it a must-try for any guitarist looking to revolutionize their tone.
