The GigRig are major pioneers of the modern stompbox switching system. Their ingenious G2 model has been used by professionals worldwide — allowing players to easily manage their sophisticated pedalboards by engaging/disengaging multiple effects at once with just a single click!

Daniel Steinhardt (of 'That Pedal Show' fame) along with his engineers at The GigRig have now built a successor for the popular G2 — introducing G3, their latest-generation advanced switching system for guitarists and bassists. G3 Atom is a condensed-down version of the new G3, boasting all of the same great features albeit with 6 effect loops rather than 12. Offering true stereo delay and reverb spillover, 99 banks of presets and Bluetooth connectivity to pair with the new G3 iOS app — you can make this the tone-controlling centrepiece of your setup!

Key Features

  • Exceptional audio with incredibly clean signal path and high headroom.
  • G3 Atom has 6 programmable-true bypass effects loops, each of which can be mono, or stereo via TRS jacks.
  • Up to 99 banks of presets: fully programmed effects combinations with one-touch control.
  • One-touch switching for multiple changes and/or stompbox mode for single pedal on/off.
  • Super bright TFT LCD display with four levels of brightness: name your presets and never be lost!
  • Built-in wet/dry signal splitting: you can send different effects combinations to different amps.
  • Programmable VCA buffer for complete control of signal input level.
  • Stereo programmable VCA amplifier on the output to boost or attenuate your various preset volumes.
  • True stereo delay and reverb spillover, even from analogue effects.
  • Phase reversible, parallel signal paths configured how you choose.
  • Bluetooth connection to the G3 iOS app for software updates and system backups. You can also store and edit setlists and beam directly to G3.
  • Up to 15 separate programmable, mappable MIDI PC and CC messages per preset.
  • 2 expression pedal inputs for real-time control of multiple CC messages with different heel and toe values.
  • Other rig essentials include isolated second output with programmable phase control, dedicated tuner out, tap tempo and remote switching for other devices such as your amp.
  • G3 Extension Kit enables remote switching for effects offstage or back by your amp, stored safely in a case.
  • G3 HUB enables multiple controllers for different stage positions / tech control and so on.

Delay

A delay pedal records your signal and plays it back after a set time, creating echoes that can range from tight, slapback repeats to long, atmospheric trails. It’s one of the most versatile effects, used to thicken tones, add rhythmic depth, or build spacious, ambient layers. Analogue delays offer warm, decaying repeats that blend naturally with your tone, while digital units provide pristine echoes with precise control over time, feedback, and mix levels.

From classic rockabilly and tape-style echoes to modern looping and shimmer effects, delay pedals have become essential tools for shaping sound. They can make solos soar, rhythms pulse, or transform simple chord progressions into cinematic textures. Whether used subtly to add dimension or boldly to create soundscapes, a good delay pedal can completely redefine the feel and atmosphere of your music.

Expression

Expression pedals allow real-time control over specific parameters on compatible guitar pedals, such as volume, delay time, modulation depth, or filter sweep. Used with an expression input, they let players shape effects dynamically with their foot, adding movement and performance control that cannot be achieved with fixed knob settings.

MIDI

MIDI pedals use the Musical Instrument Digital Interface standard to communicate with other guitar pedals, effects units, and hardware. They allow control over presets, parameters, and switching across multiple devices from a single controller. MIDI integration makes it possible to build complex, synchronised pedal setups while keeping control simple and consistent.

New

This is brand new, fresh in, and a UK warranty is included. New Gear always comes from trusted UK music retailers.

Reverb

A reverb pedal is like the rich sauce that ties every flavour on the plate into one smooth experience. It adds depth, warmth, and atmosphere — the sonic equivalent of a perfectly reduced glaze that lingers on the tongue. Whether you’re after the subtle ambience of a cosy café (spring or plate reverb) or the grand echoes of a cathedral (hall or shimmer reverb), this is where your tone breathes and expands. A touch of reverb can turn a dry sound into something lush and inviting — but pour on too much, and it’s all you can taste. Used with finesse, it’s the finishing touch that transforms your tone from plain to unforgettable.

Tuner

A tuner is an essential pedal or device that helps keep your guitar perfectly in tune by detecting the pitch of each string and showing whether it’s sharp or flat. Tuners come in many forms, from simple clip-on units to advanced pedalboard models with bright displays and muting options for silent tuning on stage. They ensure accurate pitch, stable tone, and a more professional sound, making them one of the most important tools for any guitarist.
