fuckin badass

If I ever have something custom built, it'll be in the style of my S-70 (>>51445501) but with an aluminum neck and some crazier switching options

My pedal board consists of a Korg Pitchblack Chromatic Guitar pedal tuner, Way Huge Swollen Pickle Fuzz, Fulltione OCD Overdrive, ElectroHarmonix Holy Grail Reverb, and a Boss MT-2 Metal Zone I play through a Line 6 Flextone 100 watt amp on the Jazz Clean Amp setting and through the delay/compressor setting. I also use the line 6 floor board with wah a volume pedals and defult delay, reverb, and tremolo switches. I either play on a a Gibson Les Paul Studio or an Ibanez ARX320.

I'm in the market for either a ZVex Ringtone TT Ring Modulation Pedal, Earthquaker The Depths phaser, Or a Ditto Looper. Solid Gold FX Stutter Lite or Apollo phaser. I like unique shit.

Here are some websites i was browsing:

>>51446190
you should probably stop buying so much shit and save up for an amp that doesn't blow
>>
>>51446425
what would you consider an amp that doesn't blow?
i work minimum age. i'm not fuckin Jeff Beck.
I had an interest in a Mesa boogie triple rectifier. i had a vox 80 watt amp and a crate 200 watt amp. i think i've improved on sound quiet well.
>>
>>51446511
You bought a shitload of pedals and two pretty expensive guitars before buying a decent amp; the amp is the most important part of you setup in terms of your tone.
>>
>>51446597
i get that. i would rather make due with my amp and really work on my pedal game first.. If shit guitarists such as Mac Demarco and King Krule can get by with crap gear, I'm sure I can too. It's not like I'm play a First Act Strat on a Vox All In One preset amp, with all Boss and Digittech pedals. Once I get some more in the next decade and can commit toward a Mesa or Fender amp, I will. But as for now, I'll build up my pedal game first.
>>
can someone recc an overdrive to get a similar distortion to iceage?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PRa-Cz16P0c
>>
>>51446645
Mac plays a specific type of cheapo guitar that has a cult following because they sound fuckin great. IIRC he plays through a Twin or Deluxe Reverb.

Archie plays an assortment of Telecaster, ranging from MIM Standards to AVRI, through a Twin Reverb.

Opinions on pic related? I want to get some funky tones out of my LP without having to get a strat and it's apparently also cool for bass.

that's not my gear you fucking retard.
>>
>>51446981
why does everyone shit on boss? outside of distortion they sound great, are durable, and affordable. Is it just muh boutique bullshit or something?
>>
>>51447550
It's like hating on Beats. They're great, just too popular.
>>
>>51446720
Much of Iceage's heavy sound comes from chaotic production style, bass and drums.

Anyway here's my guess for the guitar tone:
Theay are playing way too fucking loud with tube amp and boosting it even more with a clean boost or something like that. Maybe you should get a transparent overdrive (Rockett pedals, Lovepedal etc. you can't go wrong with those) and oldschool fuzz (colorsound, fuzzface etc.) and tweak around and you'll get to the ballpark quite easily.
>>
>>51447550
im guessing its more of the people who use it than the pedals themselves
>>
>>51446645
mac plays a teisco going into an alesis microverb 4 into a fender vibrochamp
>>
>>51447707
if they were just playing with it dimed + boosted it would sound muddy as shit, even with all treble. I'm guessing it's just a tube amp with a TON of headroom and an OD/distortion.

everything else is a waste of electronics and ableton live money

Strongly recommend Earthquaker devices to everyone.
My pedalboard consists of
Eqd ghost echo reverb
Eqd sea machine chorus
Eqd talons OD
Eqd hoofreaper fuzz/octave
Eqd arrows boost
Mxr carbon copy delay
Dunlop cry baby

Fucking love everything eqd has ever done, really really solid pedals
>>
>>51450028

How about you shove them all into your asshole and kegel them on and off until you sound like Omar Rodriguez Lopez? Seems to be what all the people I know with Earthquaker devices do.

Shill, tell EQer to spend their marketing budget on creating a non-hipster pedal.

Well, you don't want one of these. I just bought one and it doesn't work for fuckall, the hum is just as loud as ever only with an even more irritating random modulated noise.

Seemed like they worked on youtube demos, but does nothing for me.

And most importantly : both are gimmicks and style over substance.

Maybe your placement is wrong
>>
>>51452425
I don't know, I tried it in a couple different spots. It didn't come with any instructions or specifications, so I would assume it's just supposed to work wherever.

what pedals do you guys recommend for bass? putting my bass through my big muff feels like sacrilege

Use the bass big muff it's godly

I found a used distortion + from the 80s last week. It's my new favorite pedal distortion. It's messy but not out of control.

Sup gearwhores, poorfag here
I have a little challenge: try to find a good way/context to use my godawful setup (no guitars), I ran out of patience and creativity with it a very long time ago

-Roland 30x Cube amp (with all the integrated effects)
-Digitech Jamman (looping pedal)
-Boss OC-3 Octaver/Distortion
-Dunlop Crybaby (barely works and fuzzes like a monkey)

if you suggest new gear, think utterly low budget, like... I wouldn't go beyond squier for a new guitar tier
>>
>>51453694
squier have a new cabronita telecaster with built-in bigsby thats really sweet, my local shop just got it in. also epiphone's sg line have really good tone at moderate prices
>>
>>51447718
>most important part of you setup in terms of your tone.
so everyone?
>>
I'm looking for a birthday present for a friend. I need a cheap but nice pedal you could use for any kind of stoner music.

Anything you can recommend? It does need to be relatively cheap.

I was intrigued by your post, I checked out my local guitar shop's website and
>mfw my local guitar shop got an arrival of squier cabronita bigsby telecasters with a price tag of 429 bucks
>>
>>51446511

if you are minimum wage, you should have an amp and use your laptop for effects.
>>
>>51453771
buy a bass amp
guaranteed stoner guitar tone right there
>>
>>51453993
He already has an amp, not a bass amp but we still settled on a pedal. Thanks for the suggestion though.

Should I get this for myself ?
It's like, not even 300$
And it's so fucking eyesore yellow, I love it

Is Sterling by MM worth it ?

Anyone ever use one of these? I want a nice chorus for a Prophet 08 so it sounds less sterile.
>>
Give me pedals that will help me make guitar drones and soundscapes. I have a boss DM-3
>>
>>51454205
Reverb, Chorus, Phaser, a volumne control pedal and maybe some fuzz
>>
>>51453909
yeah they have some cool new grestch-style pickups too, the fender ones have them on neck and bridge, but the squier only has one on the bridge irrc, usual single coil on the neck. i like single coil tone so that actually a better option imo
>>
>>51454279
Is the space echo pedal that an anon earlier posted good?
>>
>>51452483
volume gates go at the end of your chain, typically
>>
>>51454199
I'd rather have a stereo chorus for a prophet, it gets rather nasty when you want to split a stereo synth with a mono in, stereo out pedal
>>
>>51455157
That RE-20 is a legendary pedal. I know that some people ever prefer it to the tape version. Another trick for loops is to pick up a cheap tascam 4 track and make a cassette tape loop.
>>
Anybody here use a looper? I'm looking for one with midi sync and multi tracking. I'm not sold on the EHX 45000, but it does have what I want.
>>
>>51455534
Know any good stereo pedals? I don't really mind recording in mono and multitracking/panning on the mixer.
>>
>>51453771

Any good for its price range?

>>51455666
TC electronic corona is supposed to be pretty good.

Random question...
Whammy 4 or 5
I've been wanting a whammy for a while and have been looking for used pedals on ebay. The 5 is always $20-$40 more expensive, is it worth it/ what are the major differences?
>>
Wheres their dl4?
>>
What pedal would i get to acheive the sound of minus the bears lonely gun? Its so tight sounding like fuck
>>
>>51458942
Probably a combination of fuzz and wah, sampled into a Line 6 DL4. Those guys have a lot of DL4s, one of them has fucking four of them on his board.
>>
>>51456165
yeah I like it and it's pretty affordable, so if you like that kind of tone then go for it.
>>
>>51452291
Kinda synthi, good overall, you paid for what you get on this one.
>>
Christmas coming up soon, so I treated myself with a Danelectro. Tempted to also get a crybaby wahwah/VOX wahwah and maybe a VOX amp.

Any suggestions for VOX practise amp?? (£250)
>>
>>51459679
(dc59m)
>>
>>51446744
I'd say get the worm. Manuel mode trem is basically the same pedal as the knockout but you get the freeze phase and wah. Plus the vibrato sounds nice.
>>
>>51445449
I would do unspeakable things to enter that room.

>>51459902
Fall all over the racks?
>>
My setup (no picture sadly)
Fender 70's classic player strat > some weird brandless wah pedal my dad bought somewhere in the 80's > micro Qtron (great pedal, envelope filter that doubles as a fuzz if you set the drive to 9 o clock) > mxr prime distortion (if i'm gonna replace one pedal it's this one because it sounds a bit too hair metal for my taste but if you set the tone to 9~10 it's brety gud) > mxr micro amp + > dunlop volume pedal > boss super chorus CH-1 > tc flashback stompbox > fender blues deluxe reissue (best. buy. ever)

I'm thinking about getting a polytune, a MXR blue box and a compressor/noise gate, any recommendations?
