But are you willing to power them all?

Side note - what do you think of the dirt circuit in the Slash Wah? I tried that wah a while ago at a Guitar Center and I didn't much care for it, but you must like it if you've kept it.

The boost circuit essentially has two settings, slight and feedback. Its okay for putting a touch of hair on the signal but I don't use it much. To be honest, I like the sweep of the pedal but I'd prefer the Jerry Cantrell wah that came out immediately after my return period ended.

Trust me, I know the feeling.

Having so many pedals will keep you from getting bored, though.

What are you looking to get?

Right now I'm planning on getting a second Delay pedal, a Reverb, and a tuner pedal. I already talked to a guy about buying his tuner pedal off of him for like 50 bucks or something. It's just the standard BOSS one everyone knows and loves. Can't go wrong.

EDIT: I almost forgot to mention, now that Seymour Duncan released that 805 overdrive pedal, that's gotten my GAS to be in absolute full bore. By golly, that thing just screams tone! And the EQ feature is just genius.

that's a lotta pedal.
I think you should do smaller boards by function. Easier to power too; just get a DC brick for each one and daisy chain into a nice surge protector.

Those tuners are great but I've never bought one. I'd say at that price its a good deal.

The 805 looks like it might be pretty sweet, I'd like to try one nefore I buy it though

Right now I'd like to get a compressor. Wither the SP or maybe that EQD Warden, (just because of the sweet graphic on it), I'm not sure if I need on though. granted, that's never stopped me before.
 
Re: Yo, Jordan! (and anybody else who cares)

I had a Wampler Ego that was fantastic. I just found I had no need for a compressor. I've also heard very good things about the Diamond.

I hear you. I looked into a bunch of compressors a little while ago and to be honest, I'm gonna hold off on buying one. I did find a couple of EQD pedals that I don't think I can live without, so now I'm ****ed.
 
Re: Yo, Jordan! (and anybody else who cares)

I have been running 20 pedals plus off a boss tuner for over 10 years no idea about why everyone "needs" a big ass power supply suddenly? A one spot with sufficient daisy chains will do it too for 30ish bucks. Anything that has different needs for power use the wall wart and a power strip. You are missing an EQ or 2 (one for the chain one for the loop as a boost maybe) a TU 3 tuner is plenty good. The compression thing the way I use it is a must for me and you have used the Xotic SP here , but there are good cheaper ones like a Barber Tone Press off CL $80 used. You also don't have the required cabling I am betting ? Like I said before you should bring what you want to use as your standard rig over and we can test it,tweak it and make it work properly. Basically you are looking at 2 pedaltrain boards a pro and a pt 3 smaller travel/jam board, would go one hardcase one bag if you aren't going to go all out Grande! Oops ! A G string and a decimator too !

I barely understand how to use it, but I'm able to get some really, really cool lo-fi clean tones and some nasty, disgusting, glitchy bit-crushing fuzz of death sounds like early heroin fueld Trent Reznor recordings.

I whenever really considered buying a tuner pedal, 'til I realized how important a tuner was to me not too long ago, and realized that I needed one in pedal form, because why not?

I would definitely love to try the 805 before I buy it, but unfortunately, I haven't seen any place by where I live that even sell Seymour Duncan pedals period. I haven't seen the Dirty Deed Distortion or the Vapor Trail delay anywhere, and I'd like to try all of them.

A compressor actually doesn't sound like a bad idea, now that you mention it. I'd probably mainly use it for cleans though.
 
Re: Yo, Jordan! (and anybody else who cares)

You sir insane, I love it. I spread my stuff out throughout the house. I would never bunch it up like that in one spot for a picture. If the wife saw that pile of boxes or even the picture it would be no more NPD for me for a while.

Haha, being single has its benefits sometimes. I'll post pics of my guitars next. I think I'm up to 13 now but I'm not positive.

how do you like that jackhammer?
Click to expand...

I'm glad you asked. It has three band eq, (with two stacked pots), one of the stacks has a mid freq sweep I believe.

In OD mode, (the knob on the far right), it is a really punchy dirt box capable of a slight boost or full blown distortion. The Distortion mode is ridiculous. It has far too much low end for small amps but through a larger rig you can get a very fat distortion that hits you like a wrecking ball.

Its not a popular pedal, (at least not to my knowledge), because it can be overbearing but I like having it just in case.
 
Re: Yo, Jordan! (and anybody else who cares)

Someone's addicted. ;) I can relate.

Lets see, less than a year on the forum... This place could be bad for your bank account! ;)

By the way, look up "Analogman". :)
 
Re: Yo, Jordan! (and anybody else who cares)

Yeah, there are a couple of analogman boxes I've considered picking up.

My wallet hurt long before I came to this place. :laugh2:
 
Re: Yo, Jordan! (and anybody else who cares)

You've arrived at the pedal crossroads. This is the time where you play your guitar through each individual pedal for a week, and if it blows you away, it makes it to either the big home board or your bare essential board......or it's out....meaning sold.

This is the place where you forget about it's perceived value for non music reasons. It's either a keeper or it's not. It's either A board or B board. Yes....pedal hounds have to have 2 or more.
 
Re: Yo, Jordan! (and anybody else who cares)

You should have started at more then 2 for serious pedal freaks. I know a guy probably has 10 boards and a couple 200 pedals , what he uses is a sprawl of crap on the floor that randomly changes. He doesn't actually play guitar really either just makes noises that are unrelated to what anyone else is playing.
