Top-Mounted Jack Guitar Pedals

Most traditional guitar pedals have their input and output jacks placed on the sides of their enclosures. But this isn't always practical, as patch cables protrude from their jacks and prevent you from placing pedals directly next to each other - ultimately wasting pedalboard space. That's why more effects companies are now building their pedals with top-mounted jacks, so that you can mount them in a more compact fashion on your pedalboard!
