Smooth, Studio-Quality Compression for Your Pedalboard
The JHS Pulp ‘N Peel V4 takes classic studio-style compression and blends it with modern flexibility—all in a rugged, pedalboard-friendly format. Known for its transparent tone and natural sustain, this fourth iteration builds on the legacy of JHS’s original compressor with a few pro-level upgrades, making it one of the most versatile and musical compressors on the market.
Natural Dynamics with Just the Right Amount of Squeeze
Unlike overly squashed compressors that sap your tone’s life, the Pulp ‘N Peel V4 is designed to preserve your playing dynamics while adding smooth sustain and subtle warmth. Whether you’re looking for light leveling or a bit of vintage-style squish, the Blend control lets you mix in your dry signal for maximum clarity and touch sensitivity.
Built-In Dirt Switch for Extra Grit
What sets the V4 apart is the addition of a toggleable Dirt circuit, which adds a subtle overdrive when activated via the internal switch or accessible external jack (if modded). This gives you the option to push your tone into light breakup territory—perfect for country, blues, funk, or any player looking to keep things punchy and expressive.
Expanded Control and Pro Features
The Pulp ‘N Peel V4 includes a DI balanced XLR output, making it a favorite for studio setups, live gigs, and players who run direct to front-of-house. A built-in ground lift switch ensures clean, hum-free performance in any environment. With controls for Volume, Compression, EQ, and Blend, it’s easy to dial in the perfect setting for your rig.
