The Top Five Pedals for Beginning Guitarists

Guitar Nerds has put together a list of the top five pedals for someone who’s just getting started building their pedal board.

“All of the pedals here are easy to get a hold of, produce a wide range of tones, and all come in at under a hundred pounds each.” That’s about $128 U.S. at the current exchange rate.

Check it out. And be sure to visit Guitar Nerds YouTube channel for more of their great videos.
