The Nantel Verdict
The Nantel Verdict
Two distinct operational modes expand tonal palette from subtle, transparent modulation to full bell-tone and metallic chaos; BA6 chipset delivers clear harmonic overtones without muddiness; compact footprint maintains signal integrity.
Standard 9V DC power; fits pedalboards without space compromise; minimal learning curve for basic operation, but experimental mode requires ear training. Pairs well with reverb or delay for spatial effects; no expression pedal input limits real-time modulation.
JHS delivers bona fide ring modulation at entry-level pricing without sacrificing sonic character. The dual modes provide genuine utility—subtle enhancement or bold statement—making it a legitimate creative tool rather than novelty effect for experimentally-minded players.

3 SERIES RING MODULATOR
The JHS Pedals 3 Series is a collection of pedals designed to give you affordability and simplicity without compromising quality. Each 3 Series pedal is made by us in Kansas City, MO, using high-quality parts, careful quality control, and attention to every detail. Each pedal has three simple controls and one toggle that offer a wide range of sounds, perfect for beginners and professionals alike. The JHS Pedals 3 Series will inspire your playing and help you explore new sounds at a totally approachable price point.
The 3 Series Ring Modulator covers it all, from subtle, invisible modulation to full metallic chaos, with two distinct modes. The Blend knob mixes the ring modulation against your dry signal. The Frequency knob controls the speed of the ring modulator's oscillator, moving from slow, pulsing movement at lower settings to bell-like, metallic tones at higher ones. The Mode toggle selects between two algorithms. Down is Earworm mode, inspired by the now discontinued Way Huge Ringworm. The Tweak knob introduces an auxiliary LFO that adds wobble and movement to the modulation, turning a fixed ring mod into something alive and animated. Up is Green Lantern mode, inspired by the Green Ringer circuit, a wave rectifier that produces a natural-sounding octave effect alongside the ring modulation. In this mode, Tweak blends the octave effect from off to 100%. Used subtly under a solo, it adds a barely-there harmonic presence. Pushed hard with gain in front of it, it becomes something considerably wilder. Ring modulation has been around since the 1970s, and this pedal is our take on giving you everything the effect has to offer in one of the simplest possible packages.
The JHS Pedals 3 Series Ring Modulator runs on 9VDC center negative power and consumes 65mA.
