Your three must have pedals.

[DFLCC]

If you are out on a gig and you could only use three pedals, an amp and a guitar; what three pedals you must have. Given the Guitar is an SG. The amp has reverb and sure a nice clean and OD channel.

Go.

 

[cerebral gasket]

1. Tube Screamer
2. Chorus
3. Delay

 

[DFLCC]

Mine would be a Maxon OD808 for boost and additional drive, an MXR Carbon Copy. You never can go wrong with a little delay. Finally, a TC Electronics Poly-tuner. Hey, six string at a time in a loud club during the drum solo.

 

[AngelDeVille]

1. Tuner
2. Backup tuner?

I have a bunch of pedals, but they are on the pedalboard, and in the case...

 

[Norlin SG]

Gas, Brake and clutch. Well, you had to ask...............

 

[cerebral gasket]

That polytune is awesome.
All six strings at once.
Strobe mode accurate to 0.1 cent.

 

[plankton]

Three different fuzz pedals.

Currently they are; a Tonebender Professional MkII clone, a DOD Carcosa and a EHX Green Russian Big Muff reissue.

 

[One-Wan]

Fulltone Fatboost. Analogman Astrotone. Polytune. So its Dirt. More Dirt. And a way to tune the Dirt.

Cheers, Scott.

 

[Clifdawg]

I'm a simple man: Fulltone OCD and Crybaby could satisfy 90% of my needs. Throw in a delay and I'm set.

 

[Gahr]

Provided the amp is a Vox AC30:

1. Crowther Hotcake OD
2. Delay (currently an MXR Carbon Copy)
3. Fuzz (currently an Analogman Surface NKT275)

But most of the time I get by with only the volume knobs on the guitar and the reverb in the amp.

 

[rotorhead]

Crybaby, Tube Screamer, and maybe an EQ.

I have this thing about/ against most pedals. Most times I want as little as possible between the guitar and the amp. I do keep the Crybaby on most days. The Tube Screamer is there for when I'm running the clean channel and want a sudden punch.

Other than that it's usually just the amp footswitch that gets most of the attention.

 

[donepearce]

My swell and the two on my bike.

 

[gball]

Tuner.
Wah.
Analog Delay.

 

[TDA1966]

Electro Harmonix Stereo Electric Mistress chorus/flangerz
Digitech Jam Man XT Express looperz
Electro Harmonix Big Muff Pi with tone wickerz

 

[Adavis84]

By far, my #1:

Got this as a teenager in the late '90s as a birthday present to myself. I had no idea what it was at the time and only snagged it because it was $40 and said "tube" and "blue" on it. 2018 me thinks '98 me done pretty good.

If there's a #2 and #3, I guess my modded BOSS CS3 and just about any Big Muff.

 

[Tony M]

Well, if the amp has a good clean and a good dirty channel and a good reverb,
I would say a tuner, a modulator and a delay (the last 2 in the amps effects loop).

If the amplifier has only a good clean channel then a tuner, a 2 sided dirt pedal and
a delay that has some modulation included (A Source Audio Nemesis comes to mind).

 

[lcw]

As it stands...

1) Tubescreamer
2) RAT
3) FZ-2

 

[shreddy bender]

For me it would be
1. ProCo Rat
2. Pigtronix Class A Boost
3. Dunlop Univibe

Those are the three I use most.

 

[Logan]

1. Yellowcake Furry Burrito
2. Some sort of tremolo
3. Earthquaker Avalanche Run.

 

[Westernrider]

Fulldrive 2 - The Blue one
H20 V3 - Again, the blue one, Truetone delay - chorus.

Still have a H20 V2 and use them both, however,
the V3 is a significant improvement over the V3

The runner ups, not in any particular order are:
TC Electronic Helix - not much but adds some nice spice when needed
TC Electronic Polytune
MXR 10 band eq
Danelectro green eq - its old! and I think it cost $20.00 for it new! and it still works great!
Used to have a solid state Fender Princeton 65 ss amp and used
this to help tame the highs and bring out some mids.

Bought this in a time of little money and hardships. This was a really super SS by Fender. It was loud and clean with a crummy speaker and it took pedals really well. Wish I still had this one.

Has any one else used this amp? Is it as good as I remember it?
