i have a simple set up and was just looking for a few idea's to spice up my pre-amplification, ive been GASing over a Mesa V-twin so i suppose that my next investment, after this though i need ideas (cause who can live without looking forward to new gear? (half the phone for me))

current chain: Boss DS-1>>Boss CS-3 compressor/sustainer>>(sometimes in the chain) CE-2>> Boss GE-7

(yeah yeah i know im a boss addict, its just the other companies ive tried haven't satisfied me as well)
 
Re: What does your current effects chain consist of? (pics are welcome)

Guitar->Vox Wah->Mesa Boogie Bottle Rocket->Boss EQ-20->Amp :)

If I want anything else, I go thru my Digitech 2112.

My signal chain is a little out of control. It's actually scaled down from what it was just a few months ago - I got tired of carrying the old 16 space rack to gigs.

My signal chain goes something like this...
GUITAR
VHT VALVULATOR
TESSE PICTURE WAH
FULLTONE DEJA VIBE 2
IBANEZ CHORUS (not shown in pic)
IBANEZ FLANGER
BOSS OCTAVE
FULLTONE ULTIMATE OCTAVE/FUZZ
FULLTONE SUPA-TREM
SOBBAT PHASE BREAKER II
FULLTONE FULL DRIVE 2
PHARAOH AMPLIFIERS CLASS A BOOSTER
RANDALL RM4 PREAMP
ROCKTRON HUSH SUPER C NOISE REDUCTION
CHANDLER STEREO ECHO
LEXICON ALEX REVERB
ROCKMAN STEREO CHORUS
VHT 2/50/2 STEREO TUBE POWER AMP
2 BOGNER 2X12 SPEAKER CABINETS W/CELESTION
VINTAGE 30’S AND LEAD 80’S

Here are some renderings of my pedalboard and rack. I made these images with MSpublisher.

Guitar-Cord-Amp

I never use effects, except for a little reverb. I don't own a single pedal.

Holy Crap Hawkman, That a Mighty setup...
You cud take a country or two easily with that Rig!!
My "rig"is in my Sig (no pun intended) and in no particular order because i haven't been playin it noe in about 2 weeks....what a shame really.
 
Re: What does your current effects chain consist of? (pics are welcome)

Combinator2 for controlling the pedals, one Hydra booster, an Ibanez RC-99 chorus, delays...I use a few different ones from time to time, Memoryman deluxe, Delayla,,the very first one, DelaylaXL with tempotap, overdrives...twochannel PlexiTone prototype overdrive...don't use others really except for a MK1 HDB from time to time.
I am searching for a MXR phase90 and a good flanger....but mostly I really just use one overdrive and one delay.
 
Re: What does your current effects chain consist of? (pics are welcome)

i usually go guitar --> mxr phase 90 --> amp, but sometimes i switch the phase 90 out for my dunlop wah. i need to get one of them tiny cables so i can keep both in.
 
Re: What does your current effects chain consist of? (pics are welcome)

My effects chain goes like this:

Amp->Boss DD-3 Digital Delay->Small Stone Phaser [Russian]->Boss DS-1 Distortion->Dunlop Crybaby Wah

The footswitch is off the chain and the Digital effects are set on chorus, which I mainly use as a signal boost.
The setup is pretty simple but sort of forces me to concentrate on playing rather than filling the air with phase this or delay that. I only use the effects at certain instances and more often than not in a "tasteful" manner...except the Wah, I kill the crap out of that thing.
Although I do plan on adding a Dunlop Tremelo and an Ernie Ball Volume Pedal somewhere further down the road.

Re: What does your current effects chain consist of? (pics are welcome)

I'm putting together my pedalboard right now, actually...

Dunlop Wah
Digitech XSW Synth Wah
Digitech XBW Bass Synth
EHX (Russian) Big Muff Pi (The huge black box)
Tech21 Comptortion
Danelectro Pepperoni Phaser
Danelectro Hashbrowns Flanger
Danelectro BLT Slap Echo
Digitech XDD Digital Delay
Digitech XBS(?) Bass Squeeze Compressor


I use the bass effects both for bass (surprise!) and some cool "other" guitar type stuff.
 
Re: What does your current effects chain consist of? (pics are welcome)

Right now it's pretty simple, humbuckers into a vintage DOD 250 OD into a vintage TC Electronics Chorus into a JCM 800. I had a vintage MXR flanger along with the noise gate it required in there up until very recently and I'm missing it, it may go back. I may stick the DS-1 in after the OD too, but I really don't have a whole lot of need for it, I let our new guitar player handle that type of thing.
 
Re: What does your current effects chain consist of? (pics are welcome)

My stuff is kind of old, but here goes.

Guitar
Tuner (Boss rackmount)
Enhancer (Boss Rackmount)
Into Roland GP-8 which has:
Filter
Compressor
EQ
Then FX Loop to Marshall Pre-Amp
Back to Roland for:
Delay
Chorus
Power Amp
Carvin 4X12 cab
 
Re: What does your current effects chain consist of? (pics are welcome)

Guitar -> Bad Horsie Wah -> TU-2 -> G2D Morpheus -> G2D Custom Overdrive -> Boss DD-3 Delay -> Amp

Others currently not in the chain, have been in the past:
DOD Stereo Chorus
DOD Phaser
Boss CS-2 Compressor
 
Re: What does your current effects chain consist of? (pics are welcome)

Guitar -> Amp (Laney VH100R) -> Korg Rack Tuner -> Alesis Micro Compressor -> Behringer Parametric EQ... some people knock Behringer stuff, but this thing has never let me down, and it's as quiet as a mouse fart.

All the effects are in the overdrive channel effects loop. I may be picking up an EQ for my clean channel soon.

guitar - maxon od808 - peavey Deltablues. Simple works for me
 
Re: What does your current effects chain consist of? (pics are welcome)

Band #1: guitar -> guyatone mt3 -> fulltone clyde wah -> mxr phase 90 -> sansamp gt2 -> line 6 dl4 -> mxr smart gate -> fender hot rod deville or rivera knucklehead

I'd like to add more pedals and a loooper, but I'd need a bigger board too. All of this stuff fits perfectly on a pedaltrain, damn. This board needs work, there's too many tonesuckers here.

Band #2: guitar -> mesa single rectifier

I'm schizophrenic like that. ;)
 
Re: What does your current effects chain consist of? (pics are welcome)

rite now im running guitar-chord-amp,
i used to run a dunlopwah-mxr dyna comp-boss bd-2

if i cant find use for them in a month or so, ill sell them for a chorus, a better wah, or something unique....the amps reverb is good and the gain is perfect.
 
Re: What does your current effects chain consist of? (pics are welcome)

Guitar-compressor (for clean sounds)-Tonebone Hot British-Peavey Classic 30.

Boss GE-7 EQ & Boss Delay pedal into the dffects loop.
