Guitar Looper Pedal Basics - 5 Easy Steps To Get You Started

This is a guitar looper pedal beginner lesson. In order to get started looping on the guitar there are some basic skills that you need to master. In this video I will teach you how to use a looper pedal and master these basic skills and pro tips. They are easy once you practice them. The looper I am using is the Ditto by TC Electronic but it can be done just the same on a Boss RC-1 looper pedal. A looper pedal is an essential tool for practice, performance and composition so I believe that it is important to learn.
You Can Purchase the Ditto from my Amazon Affiliate link or just browse to check it out Either way it helps the channel: amzn.to/3wFzmWN
My preferred loop pedal is the Ditto X4: amzn.to/4cWJSJ1

You are an EXCELLENT teacher. That’s a rare skill. ❤

[@FrankPersico]

Thanks so much. I appreciate it

[@gregsmith29]

Learning so much, I have owned a DigiTech Jamman Looper for many years and seldom use it Live. I now plan on useing it much more, Thanks Frank!

[@FrankPersico]

Rock on! Thanks for posting

[@grene1955]

I started in the coffee house circuit in the 70's, and still play a lot of solo acoustic gigs. I have two loopers but got scared off using them live so now they mostly just collect dust. Your simple concise instruction has me reevaluating them. You are an excellent teacher!

[@FrankPersico]

Thanks so much I appreciate it .

Thanks

[@FrankPersico]

No problem

[@kerryfromaj9032]

Thanks Frank. 👍🏻 I have two JamMan loopers and just started using them again after having difficulty getting Loopy Pro to work for me. I have a video of me recently going through my loop set up on my channel. Just getting started again trying to loop is a big step.

[@FrankPersico]

Awesome: send link I will check it out

[@FASFatherandSon]

What can I say. Dope video

[@FrankPersico]

Thanks so much

[@mikeholper5992]

Great video Frank. Have you ever tried using a drum pedal and synching it with a looper? I’ve used a Beat Buddy for several years, not on all songs but for some. I’m messing around with a looper again thanks to your videos but will have to upgrade mine to get one that syncs with the Beat Buddy.

[@FrankPersico]

Not yet! But I am looking into the beat buddy and will sync with my dittox4 that does have midi capability.

[@chadandrews98]

Thanks Frank! BTW do you ever sing with an electric guitar?

[@FrankPersico]

Sometimes. I will occasionally depending on the gig bring an electric guitar (my telecaster) and play a few songs with that. And occasionally I will play and sing electric with a full band though not as often as I would like.
