This is cool! It seems catered to musicians who already know a lot about pedals. I play guitar but own zero pedals but want some. This website would be a lot more useful to a beginner like me if I could sort by function.

or, and this would be tons of work, but if there is a way to view pre made 'stacks' -- ie, show me the basic stack/series for a solid rock sound, or what xyz musician uses.

    Hey thanks a lot!

    What do you mean by "sort by function"? Like a list of guitar types?

    The stack thing is definitely interesting and it's something just put in my notes. Would you like to see stack belonging to famous artists? Or by music genre for instance?

      You're welcome!

      By function I was thinking more of a filter to show only "reverb" pedals, or only "delay" pedals, so you can compare specific pedals that do only specific functions.

      I think stacks belonging to famous artists would be super cool, but probably very niche (and hard to source/verify?). More helpful would be a 'generic stack for xyz music genre' - which I guess would be subjective, but would be a good resource for someone like me who wants to get a good tone, but has no idea where to begin pedal wise for say Math Rock.

I'm a pianist but I know my guitar nerd band mates will like this. Good work!
