Josh Smith Flat V

The Josh Smith Flat V by Poly Effects is a sophisticated 2-channel gain pedal designed in collaboration with modern blues maestro Josh Smith. Channel A is transistor-based with selectable diodes (Schottky, Germanium, Silicon, and LED), while Channel B is an amp-style gain circuit with cascaded JFETs replacing valves. Synth-inspired resonant filters shape the tone of channel B, providing unparalleled levels of tweakability.
