I might grab a chorus. The fuzz sounds interesting but I do not know how much I would use that flavor. Though it does sound cool and unique.

“From January 2024 to now, we sold 334 units. I went after it, but it plummeted”: Why JHS Pedals is discontinuing Ross Pedals – just over a year after resurrecting the legacy brand

In his announcement, Josh Scott revealed that starting on Friday, November 15, he'd be selling the remaining Ross units – which were revived against the backdrop of much fanfare last year – for $79 apiece

It is a good price for the phaser, too. I would be tempted if I can try it. Some phasers make the entire signal a lot quieter when you turn them on (due to sweeping the frequencies), while some include a small internal boost to keep the signal at the same perceived volume. So, I'd have to see how this one works.

Actually, original Ross phasers never really increased in value. I bet JHS spent a lot of money betting that Gen X would buy them due to nostalgia, but that simply didn't happen- they were charging way too much for them, to begin with. Also, many of the old Ross circuits have been cloned and improved upon and those go for less money than JHS was asking.
 
Yeah
but he got the special cases and stuff

and the buffered switch

And the colors and logo

He said he has about $76 in each one to produce
And while he isn't blowing the out at a loss

His margin is very low

yeah he probably had the market confused

he had a long form video about the decision to drop the line

I hate that

he seemed so excited about resurrecting the product line
