JHS Mike Campbell Signature Calhoun Pedal
The Calhoun is a collaborative signature pedal for legendary guitarist, writer, and producer Mike Campbell. Mike is most known for his role in Tom Petty and The Heartbreakers, but he has worked closely with such artists as Don Henley, Bob Dylan, Stevie Nicks, George Harrison, Jackson Browne, Brian Setzer, Johnny Cash, Fleetwood Mac and The Wallflowers to name a few. He also is a founding member of Mudcrutch and has a side project called the Dirty Knobs. When the opportunity to create his only signature pedal came to us, we were honored, to say the least. Let’s go over what the Calhoun has to offer.
The Calhoun is a 2-in-1 overdrive/fuzz pedal that is designed around Mike’s specific desires for live and studio performance. There will be two versions of the pedal, the standard production unit that will be readily available (which is the red with black knobs one pictured here) and a smaller quantity limited run version that has Mike’s custom A/B stage switching arrangement, hand-painted finish (designed by Mike’s daughter), as well as an autographed certificate of authenticity.
