weezerboy Posted October 5, 2003 Report Share Posted October 5, 2003 i was wondering if it was at all possible to install an effect pedal into a guitar... would you just stick it just before the output inside the guitar or am i overlooking something???? its just that i think that this would be really cool!

bowser Posted October 5, 2003 Report Share Posted October 5, 2003 you probably shouldnt put the whole pedal into the guitar, but you could install all the wiring into one i would think. Have like a regular switch to replace the stomp one, and some other mods. If you know stuff about electronics try searching google for stomp box schematics and you should find some sites with them. It would be sweet to be able to adjust the gain on your guitar, or some other effect! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saber Posted October 5, 2003 Report Share Posted October 5, 2003 This reminds me of the MPC Electra guitars. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StratDudeDan Posted October 5, 2003 Report Share Posted October 5, 2003 yes, you can just put it in before the output, but to get real fancy-schmancy, you could just pull out the electronics, jacks and all, find a place to stick 'em in the body, move the guitar's out jack and replace it with the pedal's out jack, then just "plug-in" the pedal permanently on the inside. maybe... back to my theory on theories. in theory, communism works, so you can't always trust theories. - dan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DividedByJames Posted October 10, 2003 Report Share Posted October 10, 2003 Check these out. One thing you may need to consider is matching volume levels, and a good bypass. Most pedals take batters. If the batteries die, the signal stops at the effects and no sound is heard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
