Pigtronix

David Koltai and Brian Bethke met at Middlebury College in Vermont and founded Pigtronix in Brooklyn, New York, in 2004, aiming to build pedals that didn't just copy what was already on the market. The catalogue that followed leans experimental — compressors, fuzzes, delays, reverbs and synth pedals built around unusual circuit combinations rather than straight reissues of classic effects, with the Philosopher's Tone compressor and the Infinity looper among its longer-running products. Bond Audio, the parent company of D'Angelico Guitars and Supro, acquired Pigtronix in 2020 and has kept it running as its own line rather than folding it into either of those brands. New Pigtronix releases are what we cover most. Here's what we've written.
