Ok everyone, looking for some help here with my pedals. I have a handful of pedals here and have yet to find the perfect order to have them running to my amp. I have a epiphone les paul standard and a marshall avt20 valavestate amp. The pedals are a Crybaby 535q wah, Boss oc-2 octave, ibanez ts-9 distortion, Boss dd-3 digital delay, and an mxr phase 90. Any suggestions on the order i should run these in? Thanks Also, if i get a Boss DS-1 distortion pedal, would that boost my distortion in addition to the ts-9 or will it not make much of a difference?

    volume/wah-front
    boost/dist/o.d.-middle
    coloring effects-end

    that's usually the standard set up, but feel free to experiment, you might like something else better.

    yeah since go to L has given you a good lineup I'll comment on the dual OD/Dist setup.


    Yes, the DS-1 combined with the TS-9 will give you much more distortion. It works best when the TS-9 is set for clean boost with the gain all the way down or with just a bit of grit. That way you have clean, grit and grind, then full out distortion.

    wah -> OC-2 -> phase 90 -> DD-3 - > TS9 -> DS-1

    Here's what I would do...

    wah -> phase 90 -> OC-2 -> TS9 -> DS-1 -> DD-3
    ...and if you don't like it, you can suck on an egg.
