No matter your skill level, a looper pedal will make you a better guitarist. You can use it to practice solos, spark creative ideas, or even to play along with yourself on the live stage. And even better, it's a lot of fun. In fact, it's one of the best gear investments you can make as a guitar player.

There are lots of different types of loop pedal on offer, all catering for different players’ needs. Some have a single pedal and allow for fairly basic looping – these are great for trying out chord sequences and seeing how melodies and solos fit on top. Some let you stop and restart the same loop, which can be useful for live use, and others might have more footswitches which unlock loads of looping options, and these can make for very powerful performance tools.
