Electric guitars use magnetic pickups to convert string vibrations into an electrical signal, which is then amplified. Unlike acoustic guitars, they rely on amplification for volume and tone shaping, making them highly versatile in genres like rock, blues, jazz, and metal. Electric guitars come in many body styles—solid, semi-hollow, and hollow—and feature different pickup configurations, neck types, and hardware. From smooth clean tones to aggressive distortion, they offer a wide sonic range, making them the backbone of modern guitar music.
Guitar pedals are essential tools for shaping your sound, offering everything from subtle tone enhancements to wild, expressive sonic textures. Whether you’re after the grit of overdrive, the shimmer of chorus, the depth of reverb, or the psychedelic swirl of delay and modulation, pedals allow players to personalise their tone and push creative boundaries. Each stomp box adds its own flavour, and when combined, they become a powerful extension of the player’s voice. From vintage classics to cutting-edge innovations, guitar pedals are where the magic happens—turning a great tone into something unforgettable.
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.
