A cab—short for cabinet—is the speaker enclosure that projects your guitar amp’s sound to the room. Cabs come in various sizes and speaker configurations, like 1×12, 2×12, or the classic 4×12 setup popular in rock and metal. The type of wood, construction (open or closed back), and speaker choice all influence the tone, response, and volume. Matching the right cab with your amp head is key to shaping your overall sound, whether you want tight, punchy lows, smooth mids, or bright, cutting highs. It’s where your amp’s power turns into the rich, full sound you hear on stage or in the studio.
Guitar FX (effects) refer to the wide range of pedals and processors that shape and manipulate a guitar’s signal to create different sounds. From classic distortion and overdrive to reverb, delay, modulation, and pitch-shifting, effects are at the heart of a guitarist’s creative toolkit. Whether analogue or digital, stompbox or multi-effects unit, Guitar FX allow players to express mood, texture, and dynamics in unique ways. Used thoughtfully, they can transform a simple riff into something atmospheric, aggressive, or entirely otherworldly.
A pedal is a compact device that guitarists use to alter their instrument’s sound by shaping effects such as distortion, delay, reverb, and modulation. Typically housed in a rugged enclosure and controlled by footswitches, pedals are designed to be placed on the floor for hands-free operation during playing. They can be analogue or digital, true bypass or buffered, and come in countless varieties to suit different styles and preferences. Pedals are essential tools for creating signature tones and adding colour and texture to a guitarist’s sound.
