Then we take a look at the new Spurr Audio PMF-8824 multi-modulation pedal. Finally, Josh Scott of JHS Pedals has been in a nasty cycling accident and so won’t be on camera for some time.

Oasis Les Paul
Noel Gallagher’s highly anticipated reunion tour with Oasis kicked off on July 4th in Cardiff, and guitarists and fans were immediately captivated by the unique guitar he debuted: a P-90-loaded Gibson Les Paul, which I wrote about at the time.
The guitar’s much-speculated-about features have now been confirmed by Gibson, as the company officially announced a highly limited-run release of the very same model, giving fans a chance to own a piece of rock-and-roll history.
Gibson Custom P-90
This new Les Paul, expertly aged by the Murphy Lab at the Gibson Custom Shop, features a sleek Ebony finish and is equipped with aged nickel Gibson Custom P-90 pickups—the key to its distinctive tone. Other features include Grover tuners and a SlimTaper neck profile, Noel’s personal favourite.
The 25-guitar run includes some added extras with each unit. Each guitar comes with a Gibson Custom hardshell case with a custom interior, a handmade leather strap by Bear Straps, and a Certificate of Authenticity booklet.
Handwritten Lyric Sheet
The true centerpiece of the package is a handwritten lyric sheet from Noel Gallagher, featuring lyrics from a different Oasis song. Each guitar and lyric sheet has been paired at random, making every unit a truly unique collector’s item.
This limited-run Gibson Custom Noel Gallagher Les Paul Standard will be available starting Thursday, August 21st. The Oasis Live ’25 celebrations seem to keep on rolling.
MSRP – TBC
Spurr Audio
Spurr Audio has officially launched the PMF-8824, a compact, multi-modulation pedal that blends a vintage digital aesthetic with modern creative power.
Inspired by the personal computers of the early 1980s, the PMF-8824 provides guitarists and musicians with a unique toolkit for creating modulated textures and unconventional tones.
Multi-Modulation
The PMF-8824 is equipped with eight custom-designed effects. Each effect has its own dedicated screen layout and offers real-time control over three contextual parameters (Ctrl 1-3). For quick and intuitive sound-shaping, the pedal also features dedicated knobs for Mix, Volume, and Program selection.
The included effects range from classic modulation staples to more experimental tools. These include a smooth 4-stage Phaser, a rich Tremolo with a waveform selector, and a dense, metallic Flanger with resonant feedback. For more ambient sounds, there’s a tape-style Vibrato with internal ambiance and a wide 4-voice Chorus that includes a built-in reverb option.
The pedal also offers a Rotary Simulator for a spinning speaker effect with mic and cabinet control, a VCR (VHS Lo-Fi) for warped, nostalgic tape textures, and a Microchoir, a unique digital choir inspired by classic organ voicing.
The Pre-order is open now, and they cost $219.
Josh Scott Accident
JHS Pedals founder Josh Scott has announced he is recovering from a “pretty bad cycling accident” that has left him with several serious injuries.
His pedal company just released the new 424 GainStage last week, then over the weekend, he shared via his Instagram account that he had been in a bad accident.
29 stitches!
Taking to his social media, Scott updated his followers, revealing that the accident resulted in a broken vertebrae, knee and shoulder damage, and a facial injury that required 29 stitches and “a bit of nose reconstruction.”
Despite the extensive list of injuries, Scott emphasised that he is “fine” but will be taking a break from the JHS YouTube channel to focus on his recovery.
In his post, he said, “Hey y’all, I’m a private guy, but I do want you to know that I was in a pretty bad cycling accident – lots of broken things and lots of stitches… You won’t be seeing my face for a bit (trust me – you don’t want to), and if I haven’t returned your email, DM, or text, this is why.” He also thanked his wife, calling her “THE GOAT” for caring for him, and asked for prayers for the “swelling, the breaks, and the overall mental weight of it all.”
Broken Finger!
In a follow-up post, Scott shared that doctors confirmed his broken finger is “on track” and that he would have “a bit of nose reconstruction.”
He reiterated that he feels “golden” despite the injuries and is “forced to rest,” something he admitted is difficult for him. Scott also expressed his gratitude for the outpouring of support from his community, saying, “The messages, texts, and meal signups have been incredibly kind and helpful to our family. We feel very loved.”
Everyone at Gear News wishes Josh a speedy recovery, and hopefully, while he is getting better, he can relax a little and enjoy listening to music. I doubt he will be playing guitar for a little while if he has a broken finger.
