  • Connecting Pedals

    hey, i wanted to connect my boss overdrive pedal with my fuzz face pedal and was wondering how i did that? do i need a special connector (or cable) or can i just use a regular guitar cable?

    Regular guitar cable will work.....the shorter, the better.

      You can buy little cables specifically for connecting pedals together.

          George L cables are great because you can make them exactly the length that you need. Plus they are sturdy (for pedal connections) and very clean in terms of not robbing tone.

          I was amazed at how much a couple of cheap connector cables dulled my tone.

          Here's a good description of the George L offerings - scroll down for the "FX Kit" which is a good deal for making 5 connectors for about $5.50 each: George L @ Guitar Heaven

          Sometimes use a Blues Jr., Tech 21 Trademark 10 & Power Engine 60

            Any instrument-level cables are fine. Speaker cables use 1/4" plugs, also, but they are not compatible.

              Check out the discussion here. You can get connectors, too. I use patch cables for my setup, but with multiple pedals you might prefer the connectors.
