JHS Emperor V2

Analog Chorus with Tap Tempo Guitar Effects Pedal

The Emperor V2 absolutely nails the hard-to-find sound of the Arion SCH-1, but it’s also a do-it-all modulation solution. It utilizes a Bucket Brigade 3207 chipset to deliver the warmth of ‘80s-style analog chorus pedals and we’ve added enough onboard and outboard control to put you in command of every aspect of the Emperor’s voice. Spread its warm tones or icy sheen to a pristine-sounding stereo rig or utilize an external expression pedal to cop realistic rotary speaker sounds on a blues gig.

So much modulation

We call the Emperor an analog chorus/vibrato. That’s just because calling it a true analog chorus/pitch vibrato with tap tempo/waveform selection/rotary speaker simulation/true stereo output/and more pedal would have been a pain to write every time.

Updated Tone Shaping Capabilities

Making a good thing better? Yes, please. The Emperor V1 had a Tone control which has now become the EQ control in the Emperor V2. We’ve replaced the passive tone control in the V1 with an active EQ control that functions as a Tilt. You’ll now have much more tone shaping capability in the V2. The overall EQ control is much improved in the Emperor V2 and you will not lose any low-end sometimes commonly found with chorus/vibrato pedals.

In-depth tempo control

To control the rate of the Emperor’s effect, simply turn the Speed knob up and down or tap the tap tempo footswitch. Plug in an expression pedal for variable control in real time. And you can even slave the pedal to other tap-controlled pedals for rhythmic consistency across all your effects.

A few extras

You knew we would throw in a few extra features for you, didn’t you? Of course we did. When designing the Emperor, we conveniently and inconspicuously tucked in stereo output and the ability to select between buffered or true-bypass operation.

Plugging TRS splitter cable into the output jack is all it takes to wring true stereo output from the EmperorInternal switch changes from buffered to true-bypass operationHigh-quality buffer helps drive long cable runs and in-depth pedal setups while restoring high-end loss

About JHS Pedals

JHS Pedals is the result of Josh Scott’s desire to build quality effects pedals that stand out in an over-saturated market. Started in early 2007 by way of a DIY repair to a Boss Blues Driver, JHS Pedals has evolved into an effects pedal company recognized world-wide. Josh’s years of touring and session work along with eventual electronics tinkering bring the experience and knowledge of what musicians need and want in their rigs, and that is one of the core values that JHS was built upon.

With a complete electric guitar, bass guitar, utility, and Mod Shop, JHS Pedals offers one of the broadest lines of effects on the market today. We value and commit to designing, populating, and assembling pedals that sound excellent, are easy to use, and work correctly.
