Big Joe Stomp Box Company is a guitar effects pedal manufacturer based in Shelton, Connecticut, founded by brothers Paul and David Christian. The company name is a nod to blues guitarist Big Joe Williams, who was known for modifying his own instruments. The Christian brothers have a long background in OEM electronics design for the musical instrument industry and are credited with developing the Pocket Rockit direct plug-in headphone guitar amp before launching the Big Joe pedal line in 2012.

The pedals are built around fully analog circuits and housed in die-cast steel chassis, with assembly handled at the company's Connecticut facility. The catalog is split between the flagship Big Joe Series and the more streamlined Raw Series, covering overdrive, distortion, modulation, and power supply products. Notable models include the B-301 Tube Overdrive, B-305 Analog Chorus, B-306 Analog Flanger, B-402 Classic Tube, and the Raw Series R-401 Saturated distortion, R-402 Classic Tube, R-405 Hard overdrive, and R-408 Phaser.

The brand positions itself around vintage rock and blues tones at an accessible price point, and its pedals have been demoed by session guitarist Pete Thorn among other players. Big Joe products are distributed internationally, with RBI Music and Andertons Music Co. among its retail partners.

Big Joe Stomp Box Company has 23 products cataloged on Equipboard, including Overdrive Effects Pedals, Effects Pedal Accessories, and Distortion Effects Pedals. Their gear is featured by 11 artists, with the strongest followings in Rock, Metal, and Blues. Notable users include Johnny Hiland, Parker Griggs, and Chet Roberts.
