The Home of Pedals

Welcome to NotPedals.com

We're building the world's home for guitar pedals.

From handmade one-offs and experimental noise machines to modern classics and everyday workhorses, NotPedals.com brings together incredible pedals from builders around the world in one place.

Whether you're chasing your next favourite overdrive, an impossibly weird fuzz, or something nobody has heard of yet, you're in the right place.

Discover Something New

The best pedals aren't always made by the biggest companies.

Some are built by a single person in a small workshop. Others come from teams pushing the boundaries of what a guitar pedal can be.

Every builder on NotPedals.com shares one thing: they obsess over making great gear.

I've met almost every builder featured here. Many have become friends. They're thoughtful, passionate people who care deeply about what they create, and it shows every time you plug in.

Some pedals are built in larger runs.

Some are built in runs of ten.

Sometimes there's only one.

That's part of what makes this place so much fun.

More Than Just Gear

A guitar pedal isn't just a tool.

The way it looks. The way it feels under your foot. The tiny decisions a builder makes when designing it.

Those things influence how we play, experiment and create music.

Maybe that sounds a little wanky, but I genuinely believe great gear inspires great ideas.

Why NotPedals.com Exists

Years ago I found myself constantly discovering incredible pedals hidden away on Instagram, Reddit, YouTube and obscure websites.

There were amazing builders everywhere, but no single place where musicians could discover them all, not just the big brands. 

So I built it.

Today, NotPedals.com is growing into a global home for guitar pedals; a place where players can discover new sounds, explore incredible builders, and maybe stumble across their next favourite pedal.

Whether you've just bought your first MetalZone or you've filled multiple pedalboards over the years, I hope you discover something here that inspires you to make your own noise.
