My right foot being dominant doesn't have anything to do with it for me.
The fact that most pedals are built that way is the largest factor.
The other factor is that being right-handed means the cable from my guitar is on my right-hand side and it makes more sense connecting to my board on the right too.

Left to right.....I actually dont own a pedalboard but when I have em on the floor theyre left>right.....why? because the jacks are that way.

The other way doesnt makes sense to me......sorry just seems pointless......
Honestly I dont care if you suck at playing just have amazing tone to make up for it.

FUZZ FACE.


I know a bunch of older pedals were built left to right but I've only ever had experience with the FF, it was fucking annoying. :grumpy:

It is annoying, but then I look down at it's smiling face, and I full of fuzz happiness. :)

I did that with my graphic fuzz. I think it would be easy on Russian Muffs too. As long as the jacks aren't attached to the circuit board.

But, yeah, it's pretty terrible.

A lot of times, pedals with the jacks on top are annoying as well.

The Mid-Fi Glitch computer is fucking annoying, I love it, but the jacks fuck me up. Especially the dc jack. :grumpy:
