Best Answer

If by one effect pedal, you're actually asking if one effect pedal will work for both regular and bass Guitars, the answer is yes, but.... there are effects that are made to work specifically with the lower bass range for a Bass Guitar- which wont be as effective when using with a regular guitar- and vice-versa. So, in general, yes you can use virtually any effect pedal, with any guitar/instrument... but the effect will be varied in intensity depending on what the effect was initially designed for. Hope that helps.

no No you don't.A pedal (or foot pedal) is something you can use if you want to alter the sound coming from your guitar or add various sound effects.

Yes you do, otherwise there will be no sound when plugged into an amp, just the sound of the strings vibrating, which is very very quiet.

No, there are no leads on acoustic guitars. They do however work on Semi-acoustic guitars (an acoustic guitar which can be plugged in)

Well, technically...no. You can try to play it "unplugged" but it will sound faint and chinsey. Just pick up some cheap First Act amp from Wal-Mart and use that.

Pedals are effects. Distortion pedal, Delay pedal, Reverb pedal, Phaser pedal, etc. They all do different things.

You can use an Electric Guitar pedal with an acoustic, as long as it has a pickup system built into it!
