Who are you?

Moth Electric is a small designer and manufacturer of high quality, hand built effects units. Founded in 2023 by a guitar pedal industry veteran, we strive to pair classic sounds with thoughtfully chosen tonal and quality of life improvements and understated visuals. Our simple hope is that our products generate an inconceivable number of noise complaints. If your neighbors hate you, we’re happy.

How do you build your pedals?

All Moth Electric pedals are hand populated and soldered in the U.S.A. with through hole components. While building electronics this way is more costly and time consuming than modern surface mount construction, it keeps a dying practice alive and greatly aids in ease of repair. All hardware used is of the highest quality(Gorva soft switching footswitches, Lumberg I/O and DC jacks, Alpha potentiometers) and is mounted outside of the main board. All Moth Electric pedals are wired for True Bypass and are built to last.

How do I power my pedal?

Moth Electric pedals run on 9v DC center negative power supplies and do not accept batteries. Using an isolated power supply is strongly recommended, though not required.
