Description
The JHS Morning Glory Clean Overdrive is a reinvention of their most iconic pedal, now rebuilt from the ground up for players who want rich harmonic drive without sacrificing clarity. It's ideal for gigging guitarists, session players, or pedalboard minimalists who demand touch sensitivity and transparency, but want more control over low-end and dynamics. Inspired by Julian Lage's sonic approach and built with studio-grade engineering, this is the Morning Glory's next evolution.
At the heart of this version is a fully redesigned parallel clean blend circuit. Instead of a tacked-on mix knob, the Clean control uses a dual-gang pot to scale gain cleanly with your drive signal. It runs on a ±9V dual supply for massive headroom, giving your tone tight response and breathing room even at stage volume. You can shape your sound with Volume, Drive, Clean, and Tone-where Tone only affects the overdrive path, leaving your clean signal intact. The result is all the harmonic richness of the original with none of the low-end loss. It's a true first-stage overdrive that plays nice with everything you throw at it-distortion, delay, amp modelers, and even bass.
It's compact, pedalboard-friendly, and thoughtfully designed with top-mounted jacks and silent buffered bypass. Whether you're stacking gain stages or just need a touch-sensitive, always-on tone shaper, this version gives you more of what made the Morning Glory a modern standard. We've tried it on guitars, basses, and in front of digital rigs-it just works. We trust it to get out of the way and let your playing shine.
