Pedal suggestions?
Hey there,
I'm really wanting to start getting some more pedals to create a pedalboard (all I have is a Cry Baby Original). Is there any tips/suggestions to build a basic pedalboard?
THANK YOU!

Well, Doc, first of all, welcome to the forum!


We may need a little more info to help you get started. What kind of music you play, what do you like, are there any effects in particular you're curious about? etc.

I'm kind of an all around player, lately I've been playing more country, but I like to play a lot of rock, jazz, and metal sometimes

Ok, here is what you need: Tuner, Compressor, OD and Distortion to taste, Phaser, Reverb and Delay. Oh and you should get a Noise Suppressor. That should get you started.

Its a great delay for slapback. If you are going for longer delay settings, I'd go with something digital like the Boss.

I really like the Aqua Puss for the country slapback stuff. My favorite OD is the Fulltone OCD and I really like using the Voodoo Labs Sparkle Drive for a light OD/Clean Boost. I use a Boss DD-3 for longer delays. I have a Fender amp so I just use the reverb from that.

country ... I guess a compressor, overdrive, delay. thats most of what I hear anyways. going cheap(price, not results) I'd get the biyang compress x, a joyo ultimate drive, and spend the money for an aqua puss.

if you want a rock sound, join the rat pack on the cheap with the gfs brownie
if you want metallica, get a micro metal muff
