You could probably just buy that Session Man in B/S/T and be good to go.

JHS may be considered "bad" as far as pedal companies go, but seriously Coca Cola or something is a million times worse anyway.
Yes, I know that's flawed logic
There is no ethical consumption under capitalism. So may as well buy whatever the fuck you want.

Pffffff flawed logic is the only thing that makes people horde so much muzak gear anyway! may as well stick with it.

Buy whatever you want dude. I do all the time. Could give a fuck less what ILF thinks about the shit I have. If I didn't I wouldn't own Toneczar.
If it sounds good, and you want to try it, hit up GC since they sell JHS now, and see if it works for you.
I don't like JHS, but I'm just getting to the point where I'm beyond builder loyalty bs anymore. It's childish and stupid. I'd rather have what works for me you know?

I only buy pedals from companies that fund killing gays in the third world because I want to show everyone that I don't give a duck what people think of me on the internet.

I mean, I spend more money on Filet o Fish sandwiches in a year than on pedals and I'm sure that money is going horrible places. It is kind of moot, since I'm getting a Space Spiral and a chorus instead. Crisis averted.

I'm pretty good. Moved to Paris, KY, right outside of Lexington. Job hunting. Married. Again. I got a Red Tick Coonhound I call Lilly. Watching a lot of Forged In Fire. Dipping my toe back into pedal building and guitar playing. Trying. How about you?

Youp. It's not about "childish ILF street cred" or "ILF builder loyalty". Buy from anyone but the dude who has funded prosecuting people for their sexuality. If that's ILF hive mentality, then I'd gladly be part of it.

If you don't want JHS to get your money, you could always try to pick one up used?

Hey isn't that homophobic against dead gays in the third world or something?
Ethics and consumerism are SO hard.

Not a bad idea.
RA's visual retro fetishization over the past 10 years has always bewildered me, though. Mid life crisis man child moment? I do like plenty of his music, though.
Regardless, buying used sounds like a good plan for denying JHS the $. And fwiw, I have more than a few douchey pedals.

Ohf, do I know that feeling. Except with copious amounts of espresso. I spent all week reading about cheap 5w tube amps. Took a nap today, woke up and was like "Fuck that!"
Lone Wolf Audio makes a VHS thing too. I have Gen Loss from Cooper FX and I have been very vocal about how much I love it. I don't think gen loss is a one trick pony either.
