Guitar Effects Pedals

We are going to talk about guitar effects pedals now. There are many kinds of effects and many kinds of guitar pedals.

Clean is a commonly used effect for electric guitars. Distortion is also common. The distortion is used mostly for rock. There are many kinds of distorted effects. There are cleaner effects and there are messier effects. Me? I prefer messy and loud!

I find Digitech is a fine brand of guitar effects pedals. You can buy them at your local music store.

Effects pedals from Digitech are high quality and they have a big selection of pedals to choose from. I own a Digitech Grunge pedal and I love it. You can see a photo of my pedal below. It takes 2 AA batteries. Hook it up with a chord to your guitar and to your amplifier and Bam! Instant grunge sounds. Way cool!

There are many expensive distortion pedals that come with tons of effects. For instance, echo is an interesting effect to use.

Tremelo is fun to use with pedals. Take a look at the Tremelo tutorials and try it out. I will write this page soon.

Here is a link to Musician's Friend where you can find pedals with a variety of effects.
