well, I got a distortion, a chorus and a noise suppresor and Im GASing for a new pedal to fiddle around with but I just do not know what to get ....

A wah-wah or a delay could come in handy.

oh yes! 1 delays are very fun and useful to have

Go for a WAH.

That's a new dimension on yer playing!

oh i forgot to mention i have a wah.... but i hate it and hardly use it

How about a pitch shifter? Dont have much use for it but it is funny sounding!

i was thinking reverb considering my amp doesnt have one....but thn again i already have a chorus.... and i always have problems telling them apart

i say go with reverb its the only effect i leave on constantly. but if you go with something different delays are fun also.

like said above

Reverd , Delay or Way

I think the most usefull would be a Delay , afterwards a reverb than a Wah

Just thinking about what fx I use most

A compressor is also nice to punch up you solo´s a little

if you don't like the wah, look for a wah you like I think mine is extending the range of (my) sounds more than any other fx...
A compressor is a nice fx for solos and/or clean funky rythm work.
Delay can also be nice for solos/clean stuff (esp. in conjunction with your chorus) and are more esential than a compressor. Reverb adds a bit more quot;lifequot; to the sounds, but in live-situation it comes most of the time naturally.
Pitch shifter can be fun, but work too bad to be used live - unless you spend a lot of money.
What about other modulation effects? A phaser? Or something totally extreme like a ringmodulator...
What about a volume pedal? My volume pedal has a minimum volume setting so I can use it to quot;addquot; some solo volume.
Last thing in my mind would be an EQ which is a major tuneup for your sound and _ca_ do amazing effects...

any comments on the small stone phaser ?

its a nice sounding pedal, but a friend doesnt like his on stage because there's a slight volume drop when it's kicked in.. it does sound wicked though

i'd say go for delay too - you'd be amazed how many new riffs and things you pick up when you use one..

delays are kind of expensive here, pedals cost nearly double over here ... the only delay i could afford would be the DD3 ...but then, its digital

Theres absolutely nothing wrong with a DD3.
I have both analogue and digital delay pedals, and despite the fact that i tend to record using the analogue ones, i prefer the digitals for live use and am more than happy to use them for practice. The digitals also give you longer delay times. Youd also be amazed about the number of guitarists from top bands that have used a DD3 live and get a great tone.

I need some convincing... alot rather when it comes to digital fx

maybe i shall pop by the local store and try it out tml

Dude,just get a frickin' whammy pedal.Definately the best investment i ever made.

Actually,if you're amp doesn't have a decent reverb get that instead.Delay is a lot of fun too,but if you combine a delay with a whammy it can really bring out your creative side.

which company doesn whammy pedals?
