Electric Guitar Pedals

An acoustic guitar relies on the natural acoustics of the soundboard and resonant cavity to amplify and project the sound produced by the vibration of the strings of the guitar. On the other hand, an electric guitar does not have a resonant cavity to amplify the sound. Instead, as its name implies, it uses pickups to convert the vibration of the strings into electrical current. Before being fed into an amplifier, the electrical signal is usually altered electrically using an electric guitar pedal to achieve various sound effects. In this way, guitars can even be used to produce synthesized sound of other instruments, much like a MIDI keyboard.

Major manufacturers of electric guitar pedals include AKAI, Boss, Danelectro, Digitech, DOD, Electro Harmonix, Ibanez, Korg, Line6, MXR, Proco, Toadworks and Zoom. All of these manufactures are listed on the used Guitar Pedals website.

While some electric guitar pedals are designed to enhance the sound through equalizers and other dynamics, there are some which are designed to just distort the sound and to create different kinds of distorted sound, ranging from overdrive all the way to ‘my amplifier is exploding’ tones.Once you have found the manufacturer or type of guitar pedal of your choice, all you have to do is to click on the item and you will be presented with a list of products which match your interest.
