Same Pedal different sound

Updated: Nov 28, 2018

Sound is affected by virtually everything in the signal path.

Many times, guitarists claim that their favorite pedal becomes useless, once they changed their AMP or guitar.

Sound will change dramatically when moving from Single Coil Pickups to Humbuckers.

The voltage generated by a single coil pickup is significantly lower than a humbucker.

Therefore, gain related pedals will sound dramatically different between one guitar to another.


Guitar AMPs play a significant role in shaping the sound of guitars. Specifically their pre-amp design and implementation will determine in many ways your overall sound

Changing guitar AMP while keeping the same guitar and pedal will usually sound very different.

Well, not all is lost.


This is the beauty of creativity. This opens the option to discover new exiting sounds and textures and may become part of your sound as a diversified guitarist. In many cases, you will find that just a little tweaking on the AMP, pedal or guitar levels will get you to that new and exciting sound.
