The Tank – probably the biggest guitar pedal ever made

The Giant

Some pedals make a big impression. This one makes history.


The Giant

The Giant is probably the biggest guitar effects pedal in existence. It fills the stage right up to the rafters. While your bandmates might feel dwarfed by it, you certainly shouldn’t. After all, it’s there to make your guitar playing sound gigantic, sky-high, overwhelming—20 times larger than life!

Did we say it’s built like a tank? It’s not — it’s built like a squadron! Just turn it up and roll right over them!


There are some rivals for this in the real world, though. The funniest one I found is a custom-made XXL version of the Boss Distortion DS-1. Watch the video: This Giant Pedal Will Fix Your Entire Life (Probably)

I am still trying to find out which recent pedal is actually the biggest, largest, chunkiest, heaviest, whatever … there is still some research to do.
