Are simple pedals better? Since the dawn of time, we have been trying to figure out whether more features on a pedal equals more value. It sounds like a simple solution. If bigger is better, then by the same logic more features must make a better guitar pedal, right?
...Not necessarily.
In this week's episode, I want to share some of my favorite pedals that get the job done with no fuss. They always sound good, they don't leave you hanging, and you don’t need an instruction manual the size of War and Peace to figure them out. It’s a win-win.
