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.
A power supply for pedals is a device that provides stable, isolated electrical power to multiple effects pedals at once. Instead of using individual batteries or wall adapters, a good power supply ensures each pedal gets the correct voltage and current, reducing noise and hum.
Many pedal power supplies come with multiple outputs—some isolated to prevent ground loops—and can handle different voltage requirements (like 9V, 12V, or even 18V). Using a reliable power supply keeps your pedalboard neat, efficient, and your tone clean and consistent during rehearsals and gigs.
