Re: Name 10 MUST have pedals

Re: Name 10 MUST have pedals

Neunaber Wet reverb
Boss DD-20
Sonic Resarch Turbo Tuner
Timmy
Fetto Himmelstrutz Standard
Catalinbread Semaphore tremolo
Strymon Timeline
Wampler Ego compressor

I have an Eventide H9 and a Keeley Katana finding their ways to my board, and I hope these will be the #9 and #10 on the list.

The Katana is a phenomenal boost. I use it after my modded Metalzone to make the leads really stand out.

Re: Name 10 MUST have pedals

If the L6 models are anywhere near accurate, I'd LOVE to own a Tube Driver.

I have an X3 live and an old chandler tube driver and the models in the x3 live are about 85 percent of the way there. The basic voice is right but the real pedal reacts much more to your playing touch and is a bit less compressed than the models are.

Re: Name 10 MUST have pedals

I wouldn't call specific pedals, but as far as pedal types go:

1. Fuzzface (Ge or Si, both are awesome).
2. Bluesbreaker MKI style overdrive.
3. Tape Echo (or simulation).
4. Bucket Brigade Delay.
5. Tube Screamer style overdrive.
6. Big Muff Pi style fuzz.

Well, I guess I only needed six.

Re: Name 10 MUST have pedals

I own the Bad Monkey, and I really want an EVH Phaser.

[Hank-]

Re: Name 10 MUST have pedals

I use five: Tuner>Phaser>Wah>OD>Delay. All run in front of the amp.

For a hypothetical 10 pedal pedalboard. I'd add a tremolo, distortion, compressor & one more od and delay pedal. That should keep me well occupied. Brand doesn't really matter, whatever I can find that has the features I need and a good quality bypass(true/buffer doesn't matter as along it sounds flat when off)

EDit: Oh brand & model is supposed to be mentioned, I skipped that lol
TU3(strobe tuners are too much for stage use)
Bad Monkey OD
CAE 404 Wah
Small Stone
Electric Mistress or Small Clone
MXR Custom Comp
Flashback Delay
Carbon Copy Delay
Boss SD1 modded
Hardwire Reverb

Re: Name 10 MUST have pedals

Visual Volume
Weeping Demon Wah
Verbzilla
Delay (tastes vary)
Phase 90
Dynacomp
Chorus (again, tastes vary)


Did anyone mention a Tubescreamer

Re: Name 10 MUST have pedals

I'm quite serious when I say that I'd rather be kicked in the junk than ever hear that bastard pedal again. If I want ugly, I go with the HM2.

LOL!! Well, just for the record, I WAS kidding! Tho I do own one, I never use it anymore. I once had a SS amp that had NO gain at all, so...

Re: Name 10 MUST have pedals

Must have pedals?

A tuner. I use the Korg DT-10 because of the great buffer.

An overdrive pedal for soloing, I don't go for all that boutique BS... Catalinbread, Luther drive, etc...

I use the Fulldrive 2 mosfet. it's a variation on the tubescreamer.

a vox wah.

DOD Grunge pedal!

Re: Name 10 MUST have pedals

I would never use 10 pedals so I can't list 10, but I have been using 3 or 4 for many years.....

Boss DD3.

Boss CE 2

TS9 or 808 ( I like them both but I typically use the TS9's.

Boss TU2 or TU3. Then a good Wah-Wah. I have two vintage Thomas Organ Company Wahs that have been modded, I have a Vox 847 that has also been modded, and I have a Stock Vox Clyde McCoy. I prefer the TOC wahs. They just have the right sound/voice for what I like to do.
A few years ago I won a Duncan Deja Vu Delay and I never really used it. Its too big & has too many options so its brand new sitting in the box in a closet... I like the DD3. I have been using one for at least 15 years or so. I actually have 3 of them and I use them all.

Re: Name 10 MUST have pedals

Maybe I'm slightly misinterpreting the OP but I feel wahwah got it right. What's a set of pedals that if you saw them on a board you'd go "this guy knows how to gig"?

Not sure I can come up with 10 but I see these come up a lot in use by guys that really get milage from pedals:

Timmy
HBE Power Screamer
Xotic AC Booster
Turbo Tuner
Neunaber WET
Line6 DL4
Boss DD-3/5
Barber Tone Press
Ernie Ball/Morley volume pedal

EDIT: Also that reissue chorus/flange thing with the hammertone... Fulltone Choralflange IIRC.
