Instant British Amp Tones. Smaller Footprint. Unbeatable Price.

The story of the JHS Andy Timmons signature overdrive holds a very special place in our hearts here at The Guitar Sanctuary. Back before the signature pedal ever existed, it was right here at The Sanctuary that we originally turned Andy on to the JHS Angry Charlie. Andy fell in love with it, turned it into his primary lead channel (beating out the distortion channels of his legendary boutique amp rig), and connected directly with JHS at NAMM. That initial spark led to the release of the original AT ("the @") in 2016, and now, the iconic circuit comes full circle in a streamlined, pedalboard-friendly enclosure: the JHS AT Mini.

The AT Mini delivers the exact same V1 analog circuit as the original AT pedal—permanently set to Andy’s personal favorite 100-watt voicing. By locking in this open, punchy, low-compression mode, JHS eliminated the wattage toggle to give you maximum amp-like crunch, massive volume headroom, and pure saturation in a compact box at a fraction of the cost.

What Makes the AT Mini Different?

• The Exact Same V1 Circuit: Zero tone compromises. Same core analog architecture and same four-knob control layout (Volume, Drive, EQ, Air).
• Compact Enclosure: Saves precious real estate on your pedalboard without sacrificing sound or build quality.
• Fixed 100-Watt Voicing: Set to Andy’s exact sweet spot—open, loud, aggressive, and highly dynamic.
• Maximum Value: Get Andy’s signature drive tone for just $129 (compared to $219 for the expanded AT+).

The Guitar Sanctuary Product Intelligence & Expert Setup Notes

• Best For: Lead guitarists, high-gain blues, classic rock, fusion, and worship players looking for dynamic cranked-stack British tone in a mini enclosure.
• Tone Profile: Punchy, saturated, and articulate. Replicates the exact feel, compression, and high-frequency presence of standing in front of a roaring 100W British tube stack.
• Compared To: Delivers the exact 100W core drive tone of the JHS AT+ without the 25W/50W toggles or independent boost footswitch.
• Sanctuary Expert Note: "Having watched Andy's relationship with JHS start right here in our shop, we couldn't be prouder of this pedal. If you run a tight pedalboard and want Andy’s signature lead tone—that thick, singing, harmonics-rich sound—the AT Mini is an absolute no-brainer at $129."
