You know, if you could only have 3 pedals for the remote island, what would they be and in what combination?

I'm new so I can't say for sure. I suppose 1 would be a compressor, 2 would be Fuzz or Metal, and 3? I don't know. I kind of like Flanges. Maybe Reverb. We'll assume tha Amp is reverb-less.

Be nice to have some polls on most mentioned boxes.

1) Tubescreamer TS-9
2) Boss Chorus
3) Boss Delay/Reverb
and it would be nice to have the Boss Chromatic tuner for quick tuning.

I have the Boss TU-2 tuner and I love it. It's a fantastic tuner with a lot of features and VERY accurate. It also has a built in power supply to power additional pedals. It's a bit pricey, but well worth it, to me. If it got lost, I'd go out and buy another one in a hot second.

First, without a doubt would be Reverb. Can't live without it.
Second would be Tremolo.
The last choice is a toughy. Hmmm, probably have to go with Compression.

Soul Preacher -> Stereo Pulsar -> Holy Grail Plus

Homebrew Electronics Power Screamer, this thing really sings through a clean Twin amp. I had a custom paintjob & audiophile chip put in mine too!

The MG Audio Echo pedal would be hard to leave behind too!

Enjoy,

a good chorus for one, add a nice distortion, and with them have a good delay. this could make things happen. :lol:

I don't use ANY pedals at all, but I may look into it sometime...maybe. I do have an original Crybaby that just sits in it's box because I've learned to get that type of effect from my fingers rather than the pedal. Some of your combinations look tempting to try though :o ...
