They're called stompboxes (and they probably have a better claim to the name than effect pedals  ::)). Most of them are piezos. I've heard you can DIY them by taking a piece of wood, putting a piezo on the bottom, and then sticking some neoprene over the piezo. https://secure.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/wiki/Stomp_box
