Black Snake is a small-batch Brazilian effects pedal brand handcrafted in São Paulo by builder Edson Mereti. The brand has a cult following in Brazilian guitar and bass circles, where its pedals are traded through local forums and marketplaces and valued for their utilitarian, true-bypass designs housed in heavy metal enclosures — some reportedly fashioned from repurposed transformer casings.

The catalog spans drive and distortion circuits, including a Tube Screamer–style overdrive, a Fulltone OCD–derived Obsession Drive, an MXR Distortion+ style distortion (with a Bass/Guitar toggle on some models), and the Max Fuzz. Alongside the gain pedals, Black Snake has produced modulation effects such as chorus, phaser, tremolo, and auto-wah, as well as delay, compressor, booster, and signal-routing utilities including AB and ABY switchers, a mini mixer, and a true-bypass looper.

Black Snake has 3 products cataloged on Equipboard, including Boost Effects Pedals, Compressor Effects Pedals, and Phaser Effects Pedals.
