      Re: Just for the hell of it...

      Since there are a lot of amps now that will satisfy my needs for gain right out of the box; Like a Splawn or something with multi channels and modes within the channels, I want a nice delay/reverb pedal to fatten the tone out. I'd like to have a chorus also, but will settle for a delay/reverb pedal. I used to have one from boss that did both, but I can't find it in all my boxes.

        I like a good overdrive pedal personally. Turn down the drive and it doubles as a boost usually.

          Umm, does a TS/SD-1 constitute a boost or overdrive?
          Because I like to use them as boosts for the front end.

            My SFX -03 covers just about all the sonic ground I need, But a OCD (or in my case a Dano CO-1) is a close 2nd! I wish these pedals where available in the early 90's when I was gigging on a regular basics ! I COULD HAVE BEEN A GOD!

                I suppose boost it is then.
                I'm mainly into recording stuff. Delay, reverb etc, I can add later so not really a concern of mine, but the tightness that a boost brings, you need in front of the amp while the mic is in front of it.

                    Wah... just because it annoys so many people!
                    Political Correctness is a doctrine, fostered by a delusional, illogical minority, and rabidly promoted by an unscrupulous mainstream media, which holds forth the proposition that it is entirely possible to pick up a turd by the clean end.

                      Reverb I think. Sometimes I just like a big open airy sound and only one of my amps has a good reverb in it. I never use a distorted or overdriven sound and chorus makes me want to tear my ears out..

                        I can get a good overdrive, distortion or reverb on a lot of amps.

                        What I can't get on that is the sound and direct response of a Wah pedal. Therefore, it gets my vote.

                            Overdrive can also be used as a boost. Therefore, I'm cheating and actually voting for 2 pedals. HaHaHa.
