Plus, the cost of acquiring even a few decent pedals can be quite intimidating too. Not to mention the added complication of pedals which ones to choose, how many to buy, the appropriate budget, and the constant debate between clone pedals and the authentic ones. High-end amp stacks and premium practice amps, however, not only put a significant dent in your wallet, but they also consume a considerable amount of space.
While these amps serve their purpose during the initial learning stages, you’ll soon find yourself yearning for a more refined sound. The majority of beginners are confined to basic practice amps that offer little to no tonal quality. Transforming your novice guitar skills into something more can be frustrating, especially when your growth feels stunted by subpar equipment.
