Bondi Effects is a boutique guitar effects pedal company founded by Jon and Anna Ashley in Sydney, Australia. Jon Ashley began building pedals as a hobby, drawing on a background in electronics and amateur robotics, before selling the first Sick As Overdrive in 2012. The brand takes its name from Bondi Beach, where the pedals are designed and hand-assembled. Originally based in the United States, the operation relocated to Australia in 2016, and the company maintains a direct-to-consumer model inspired by boutique builders like Lovepedal and AnalogMan.

The Sick As Overdrive, Bondi Effects' flagship pedal, draws its foundational circuit design from the Klon Centaur and has evolved through multiple revisions. The lineup also includes the Del Mar Overdrive, which offers switchable Tubescreamer and Bluesbreaker voicings with a built-in clean boost; the Art Van Delay, a digitally-controlled bucket brigade analog delay featuring tap tempo, modulation, and MIDI preset support; the Squish As Compressor; and the Breakers Overdrive. Bondi Effects pedals have appeared on pedalboards belonging to artists such as Matt Corby and Gang of Youths.

Bondi Effects has 12 products cataloged on Equipboard, including Overdrive Effects Pedals, Compressor Effects Pedals, and Delay Effects Pedals. Their gear is featured by 21 artists, with the strongest followings in Rock, Pop, and Folk, World, & Country. Notable users include Mateus Asato, Joji Malani, and Kryz Reid.
