Many of our favorite effects pedals are inspired by rack units from the 80s, and 90s. But do our modern guitar pedals (designed to emulate vintage rack gear) REALLY sound like those iconic pieces we've heard on countless Pop records?

Today, I'm walking you through 5 guitar pedals that were heavily inspired by famous rack gear and my take on how close they resemble the "real deal". If we missed any great rack-inspired effects pedals, tell us in the comments below!
