Zvex Effects

Zachary Vex is legendary for his unique, handcrafted stompboxes that cater to musicians seeking creative and experimental sound manipulation. Over the last few decades, Zvex have gained a strong following among guitarists, bassists, and other instrumentalists and have been used on countless iconic recordings. We've had them on our personal boards for about as long as well!

Iconic Zvex Pedals

Fuzz Factory

The Zvex Fuzz Factory is truly a modern classic. This is the pedal that put Zvex on the map way back in the '90s and even if you think you haven't heard one, trust us, you have - it's been used on countless iconic albums.

SHO Boost

This is the perfect preamp pedal. The “Crackle Okay” volume knob is a negative-feedback control styled after classic 60’s recording console inputs (they crackled when adjusted too).

Box Of Rock

The Box of Rock is Z.Vex Effect’s first “distortion” pedal,
highly specialized to simulate the “everything on 10” sound of a classic Marshall JTM45 non-master-volume amplifier.

Lo-Fi Loop Junky

This is the Zvex Lo-Fi Loop Junky. It’s really low fidelity… the recording of your guitar is filled with hiss, moan, distortion and warped-record strangeness, but everyone will be able to tell the loop from your real
guitar.
