    I should start a thread asking which one of my pedals do people prefer, and out of my pedals, make your own pedal chain...I think I might!!

    This is my board. A little much, I think I might get a Fulldrive to replace the TS-9 and BD-2.

    All this 'Pedal' Talk is foreign to ME lol...ANYWAY do BASS Players like "ME" use Pedals? :)

    Sure! When I play bass (which I do more often than I play guitar these days) I can't go without my tuner (again, of course) and my Big Muff /Bassballs combo.

    Cool!...Never really thought about Buying a 'Pedal'...Might look INTO one...:)

    hey
    check out ZVEX wolly mammoth! a fuzzpedal specialy designed for bass, I have one. Really nasty stuff. :shock: although it's not an overall pedal, it's great for solos, FX etc.

    I guess mine would be my Keeley compressor, Brown Sound in a Box, and my boss RV-3. I couln't imagine my sound without them.

    i want to get 4 more pedals but i am not sure what to get next...

    1. morpheus drop tune...allows you to keep your guitar in standard tuning and drop down by half steps all the way down to one octave. it also has an effect on it that nails that jack white icky thump sound...imo it is worth $199 to keep from dragging 2 extra guitars to a gig..

    2. vintage holy grail reverb, not the little one thats out now....

    3. i saw a pharroh jubilee pedal the other day, its basically a silver jubilee in a pedal, sounds pretty nice...

    4. poly tune tuner....allows you strum all strings and it tells you which string is out so you dont have to go through all of them individually...

    there are more i want but its so hard to prioritize these 4 lol... probably the drop tune and reverb are the next two...

    The drop tune and poly tune seem cool.

    I think there is somethin about the feel of the strings and the way your guitar vibrates, that you get from actually tuning down.

    Wish the poly tune could do alternate tunings.

    I'm not really a huge pedal guy. I own a Boss Tremolo (which I love), a tubescreamer, and a Boss BD-2, the bluesbreaker.

    I definitely loooove the bluesbreaker, absolutely perfect for my sound and what I look for.

    Big fan of fulltone products!

    The OCD v4 is now the only overdrive I'm using. Made me put aside my guv'nor. Though it was good pedal. Fulltone's stuff is amazing though.

    My main thing now is a workstation. The gnx4 by digitech. Loaded with about 4000 extra sounds from mfxsupermodels. It is my main go to sound rig.

    My next pedal will be the deluxe clyde wah from fulltone.

    I have the mxr carbon copy. I love the sound but hate I can't tap tempo the effect.

    Mxr evh phase 90 I got a few months ago. Very dissappointing. Also supposed to be true bypass but that phase sucking never really turns off.

    LOVE ZVEX as well, just not able to buy one yet. Also that keeley compressor would be great addition.
