Whats in your current pedal rig, and how do you have them set up?

Right now I'm running:
Fender BC Stratocaster into
EHX Big Muff
MXR Phase 90
Boss TR2 Tremolo
Boss DD6 out to
Fender G-Dec Amp

I'm really into effects right now. For some reason making random noises can sound really cool. What other pedals should I look into, and do you guys use pedal boards? If so, what do you suggest?

I only have a Big Muff and Boss DS-1 right now. Hopefully soon I'll be getting a Reverb and a Chorus pedal.

For me i have:

Fender Highway One Strat running into
EHX Metal Muff into
EHX Big Muff Pi into
Digitech RP250 into
Line 6 Spider II 212 Amp

and i have an M-Audio Black Box that I rarely use (and i don't have enough cables to put it into my line...

i havent played many pedals so i cant really give any good suggestions. except of course for the Big Muff, which is a given for any guitarist thats a fan of the Pumpkins.

for pedalboards, i dont use one yet, but i suggest that if you only have a handful of pedals, that you build one instead of buying. you'll save alot of money and you can build it custom to your preferences.

i only have boss me. its good. i really want a whammy and zvex fuzz factory

I usually have

Ibanez S470 into
Boss TU-2 Chromatic Tuner / Power Supply
Dunlop Crybaby Wah (True bypass mod)
Ibanez TS-9 Tube Screamer Overdrive Pro
Electro-Harmonix Little Big Muff
MXR Phase 90 Phaser
Boss CH-1 Chorus
into a Mesa single rectifier combo

I want a Whammy pedal next. I am also a big fan of Native Instruments Guitar Rig software.

Octave Multiplexer
MXR Blue Box
Mellowtone Singing Tree Overdrive
Devi Ever Revolution Fuzz (Same as Devi Ever Rocket, only with a joystick)
Devi Ever Torn's Peaker Fuzz
EHX Memory Man w/Hazarai.
Boss CH-1

Definitely look into www.deviever.com/fx/ she makes many different styles of fuzz, and a few are inspired the Smashing Pumpkins, such as the Rocket. I've owned quite a few of them and they are a blast to play with.

Some ancient thing called "Hot Cake"

It's pretty much like this http://www.pedalgeek.com/cgi-bin/new_shop.cgi?config=&uid=QvlBdAAA1181504984&command=link--cah

except no "Presence" knob. Input, output, there's your distortion, all done.

Sounds very very sludgy and deep.

If I want a crisper sound, I use my dad's friend's digital effects pedal set. You can customise your own effects on it, and it's got a dozens and dozens of presets.

I finally finished my pedalboard:

-Little Big Muff
-Boss Cs-3 (Keeley Mod)
-Boss Re-20 Space Echo
-Boss Sd-1
-Korg Pitchblack

I am pretty new to this new whole world but so far I think I'm doing the correct choices to achieve the sound I want.

Already had a Fuzz Factory DIY, it was pretty lame to be honest, can't understand the hype at all.

Oh, I REALLY want one of those Boss RE-20 Space Echos. How is it?

Effects!!! As much as i love a nice clean guitar sound my best effective friend is my Boss DD-3 Digital Delay . So versatile for such a small and solid package, if you know how to work one it can be all you need to give freaky Mars Volta or Radiohead sounds.

My other effects pedals include a Dunlop Cry Baby Wah (which needs a good clean and oil inside, it makes a scratchy noise thru the sound output when you move it), a Boss GE-7 Graphic Equaliser which can change your tone amazingly (i have a 80's Jap Fender Tele that i can make sound like a gnarly old Les Paul with this pedal), a [cheap] Danelectro FAB Distortion which has a surprisingly good, versatile tone and control to it, and a Marshall SV-1 Supervibe Chorus pedal that does the job.

I also use an old Peavey 12 (reduced to 10 by who-knows-whats-wrong-with-it) Channel PA for recording and that has a nice built-in Spring Reverb.

Oh i might also say that im a vintage fan... i cant stand computerised effects (so easy to spot them) or tacky multi-effects pedals...

The best of the new pedals i have encountered is the Line 6 DL-4 Delay, The Mars Volta use 2 live, and they are absolutely AMAZING bits of sound manipulation! If you are prepared to pay a bit more for an effect, this pedal will blow your mind [it even has instructions on how to make it sound as if a spaceship is imploding, somehow haha]

Yo, man, I got a fucking...

Mexican Strat running thru:

DS-1
Shitty Target Distortion
Big Muff
Small Clone
Nano Small Stone
Fender Blender
DD-3

today, i ordered my kaoss pad and my cheapo les paul special 2 epiphone! im gonna put the kaoss pad in my guitar and its gonna be the coolest thing ever. im gonna start to get real pedals soon. ill get the fuzz factory big muff pi, whammy, fender blender, and probably that digital delay

oh, let's see

big muff
boss chorus, flange, DS1
crybaby
digitech delay ( :/ )

I might pick up a digidelay down the road. not only is that a sweet pedal, but think of what I can do with two delays?

Also, I'm planning on purchasing (down the line) a fender blender and micro-synth.


Not a huge fan of digital sounds, but they're okay to start out with.. cheaper, so you can figure out what you really want.

I want a good but cheap harmonizer pedal.

any ideas?

the only two that i know of are boss ps5 and digitech whammy. save up for the whammy
