I'm taking an abnormally long time to build an absolutely average pedal board. But so far I'm happy with the results.
I just added 2 new pedals.
Electro Harmonix Deluxe Electric Mistress.
Aside from such a big footprint I am digging it. Great for a really subtle flange effect. Considering sending it off to Howard Davis for some mods. Unless anyone has other recommendations.
The big deal would be modding it so that the volume drop isn't so pronounced when engaged.
Morley Little Alligator
I was on the fence about whether or not to pick up this or an EB. I found one locally for $20 so I snagged it. I read that it wasn't good for volume swells but I disagree. I do wish the sweep was more gradual but it works.
Anyone know how to adjust the sweep?
As it stands my current setup is
MIM Strat > Boss TU2 > Little Alligator > Dunlop Crybaby Classic > Fulltone Fulldrive 2 > Electric Mistress > Boss DD20 > AC15C1
I plan to add a compressor and a second dirt pedal. Verdict is still out on what I want though.
Compressor may be Keeley 2 knob or the SD Comp. Two different animals I know.
As far as the other... I'm looking for something gainier. More Marshall than metal.
Considering a Fulltone GT500 or Plimsoul.
Down the road I will swap Wahs but that's super low priority.
May swap out reverb tanks on the AC15. I'm not crazy about the onboard reverb but then again I don't use it that much. I don't care to devote board space to a reverb pedal.
The only other minor additions will be the optional tap tempo for DD20 and 2 button switch for the amp.
After that it is the choice to build or buy a pedalboard. Plenty of threads available. Not looking for a discussion on that point.
I've got all my essentials. I don't see me adding too much else. Just an update. Open to recommendations on other pedals to check out or critiques. I will post a pic once I have the whole gang together.
