JHS shrinks the Andy Timmons signature drive into a $129 mini pedal
The AT Mini keeps the original AT V1 circuit fixed in its 100-watt voicing, dropping the AT+'s wattage toggle and boost to fit a smaller enclosure.

JHS Pedals put out the AT Mini on August 26, a compact version of its Andy Timmons signature overdrive. It runs the original AT V1 circuit, locked to the 100-watt mode Timmons favors: louder, less compressed, closest to a cranked British amp, from thick crunch up to a rougher high-gain edge.
Getting it into the mini box meant cuts. Gone are the AT+'s switchable 25/50/100-watt compression modes and the separate boost knob and footswitch. What's left is Volume, Drive, EQ and Air, plus true bypass.
It sells for $129, well under the full-size AT+, and is up for order now through Thomann and Sweetwater. It's aimed squarely at players trimming a board down rather than anyone who leaned on the boost channel.
Why it matters
The AT+ is one of the more respected amp-in-a-box overdrives, and a $129 mini version lowers the cost of that specific voicing considerably for pedalboards short on space.
