We can hear you perfectly: “Best Pedals of 2019 list? We are not even halfway through the year yet!
You do have a point, but in pedal-land each year’s “tone” is set by the January Winter NAMM show, during which most manufacturers present their new designs (and also prototypes that are often far from being ready). Hence our Poll, sponsored by PRS Guitars, asking our readers to pick their five favorite designs presented at NAMM.
As explained in the poll’s voting page, the selection of pedals was filtered by nominating only the ones listed in the Best of NAMM lists compiled by BestGuitarEffects.com, Guitar.com, GuitarPedalX.com, MusicRadar.com and Reverb.com.
More than 2,000 votes were cast and the results are in! Here’s an interactive gallery of the top 24 pedals – you’ll find the remaining 25 under it.
