About Maestro

Maestro is a historic brand best known for its innovative and often quirky effects pedals, particularly its fuzzes and wahs, that became staples in the arsenals of influential guitarists throughout the 1960s and 70s. Re-launched in recent years, Maestro continues to offer a small but focused line of effects, aiming to recapture the spirit of its vintage counterparts. The brand carries a legacy of accessible, creative effects design.

Frequently Asked Questions About Maestro

Maestro was initially a subsidiary of Ampeg, and later acquired by Electro-Harmonix, which explains some design similarities.
