    There are a bunch of ways to do it and nothing is really right or wrong. Keeley has a nice article on it on his website.

    Wah, distortion, chorus, delay.

    I'd go:

    Wah -> Chorus -> Overdrive -> Delay

    But it's all personal preference. Some people tell you to always put the wah before the overdrive, some will tell you never to put the wah before the overdrive. It's all just personal preference. Here's a prior discussion:

    just hook up two at a time and switch the order see what you like best. add the third keep switching pedals untill you find what you think is best. id go with the wah, overdrive, chorus, delay though. delay should always go last atleast that is what ive always heard.

    I would put reverb last in any chain... delay second-to-last...
