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.

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.
Tremolo is a guitar effect that modulates the volume of the guitar signal at a regular rate, creating a pulsating or “shaking” effect. This modulation can vary in intensity and speed, allowing guitarists to achieve a wide range of tremolo sounds, from subtle rhythmic pulsations to more pronounced, choppy effects.
Tremolo pedals typically offer controls for adjusting parameters such as rate (the speed of the tremolo modulation), depth (the intensity of the effect), and waveform shape (such as sine, square, or triangle wave). By adjusting these controls, guitarists can customize the tremolo effect to suit their musical style and preferences.
Tremolo is commonly used in various music genres, including rock, surf, country, and indie, to add texture, movement, and dynamics to guitar tones. It can be used to create rhythmic patterns, add emphasis to specific parts of a song, or create a sense of tension and release.
Popular tremolo pedal models include the Boss TR-2 Tremolo, Strymon Flint Tremolo & Reverb, and Electro-Harmonix Super Pulsar.

Since 1973, BOSS has pioneered the development of unique and innovative products for musicians of all styles and skill levels. From class-leading effects pedals, multi-effects, and Loop Stations to guitar synthesizers, amplifiers, and more, our trailblazing designs include several world firsts and have forever changed the way people make music.
BOSS has its roots in MEG Electronics, a dedicated guitar effects R&D division founded within Roland Corporation in 1973. The company was recast with the now-famous BOSS name and logo and introduced to the public the following year. Along with products that carry the BOSS brand, the BOSS engineering team has been involved with developing key Roland-branded guitar products since the beginning.
This spirit of innovation continues today as BOSS forges ahead with the creation of original, progressive, and impactful gear. And with plenty more exciting developments on the horizon, we’re looking forward to another half-century of musical evolution.
