Quality

Spicetone guitar effect pedals are designed, assembled and tested in Estonia in the North-East of European Union. Highly skilled personnel, who use precise automated PCB assembly equipment with automated optical inspection, make our pedals. We test the effect pedals with special testing equipment. Before shipping, we check each piece of gear with a guitar and an amplifier. And we keep in mind the environmental impact of our products.
