Spicy Pedals is a one-man act. All my pedals are designed, soldered and assembled in this tiny desk in the middle of our living room somewhere in Dallas, Texas. 

Everything started when my 20-year-old multi-effects processor broke, and nobody seemed to be able to fix it. I decided to do it myself and look for information online. One YouTube video led to another, and that one to another, and so on. A week later, I was building my first pedal (it was an overdrive, btw).

The only reason I started this business is to keep building pedals, which, in a sense, is a way to connect with music beyond what my hands can do (oh yeah, I play guitar, not a pro, just an enthusiast).  

Now, this isn’t just about the pedals. It’s about the joy of creating something that brings sound to life. Each Spicy Pedals creation is a little slice of that joy, and I hope it sparks something similar for you.

So that’s the story—messy, homemade, and fueled by music. 

Welcome to Spicy Pedals!
