JHS Pedals Artificial Blonde Vibrato Pedal

The JHS Artificial Blonde is Madison Cunningham's signature vibrato pedal—crafted to deliver her signature pitch-shifting vibrato sound in a pedalboard-ready format. Its "always-on" vibe and intuitive dual-speed presets make it ideal for live performance, adding expressive, slightly 3D vibrato to your tone with minimalist control.

Takeaway

This pedal brings a uniquely musical vibrato flavor inspired by Madison Cunningham’s live sound—simple enough to use on stage, yet rich enough to transform your clean Fender-style tone into something lush, dynamic, and unmistakably expressive.

Highlights

• Always-On Vibe – Delivers a signature pitch vibrato texture, sweet and subtly 3D.

• Dual-Mode Presets – Quickly switch between two speed/depth presets using the secondary footswitch.

• Intuitive Controls – Shared Volume and active Tilt EQ give fast tonal tweaks while the Speed and Depth controls set per preset.

• Flexible Output – Mono or stereo outputs (all still pass buffered bypass when off).

• Artist-Guided Design – Built from Madison's real-world needs (e.g. touring prototype), now refined for all players.
