Mac DeMarco’s Zoom G1u Multi-Effects Pedal

Mac DeMarco used a Zoom multi-effects pedal in the early years when playing live, circa 2015. According to him, he loved the pedal, but it sounded terrible on the PA, so he got rid of it.

I used to play through this – it was a crappy plastic Zoom pedal with like a bunch of multi effects on it. I loved that thing. But, our front of house guy was like – it sounds like garbage.

Based on the looks – the color of the pedal, and the chrome ring around the display, he used a G1u model.
