In this interview, it is mentioned that JHS Pedals' BOX IT LATER is used on John Mayer's guitar pedal board. The following is a quote from the article: "Item ④, labeled "BOX IT LATER," is made by JHS Pedals, a pedal brand from Missouri, USA, and is a clone of a pedal called "a box later" made by Dumble. It is not a catalog model, so it is thought to be a custom-made item. It is a loop box equipped with a buffer and clean booster, and is equipped with send/return input and output terminals in addition to input and output, but it is unclear which pedals are looped into this unit."
