My favorite pedal: my Monte Allums OD 308!!
first because it’s a do it yourself kit so it’s MINE and second because i love the sound: close to a TS808 with more harmonics, more grit, the perfect match between a TS and a RAT, i just couldn’t play without !
Rock on !
12:53:49 pm
I enjoy using the Boss RC-2 Loop Station pedal, simply b/c it allows me to practice without accompaniment.
12:56:40 pm
zoom A2 acoustic pedal and zoom G1x pedal for more drive.
1:18:57 pm
I want these picks.
1:20:31 pm
I need to have these picks.
2:08:18 pm
Modtone Extreme Metal.
Very versatile, no noise, affordable: perfect!
2:35:14 pm
My favourite is a nova delay/repeater and why? Well I can create a ghostly, bathroom like atmosphere with it! All the water fairies encasing my sound in their magical power! Plucked strings then sound like they’d shake of condensed steam drops and they are gurgling on the floor while I sing!
And also a drive effect on my tender girlish voice to make me sound very rude and harsh! Looks great when coming out of the mouth of a little girl like me!
Bathroom and bruises!
2:54:46 pm
to bo honest my favorite is any crybaby pedal because it offers my favorite heavier cruch effect.
2:55:38 pm
My favorite effects pedal is an oldie but a goodie – the Electro-Harmonix Memory Man. The sheer range of effects this pedal generates make it one of the most versatile pedals out there, and the ability to send your guitar soaring with some truly bizarre sounds makes everyone a potential Hendrix.
3:01:30 pm
With the different tones of acoustic woods it is a wonder nobody has marketed them before, or have they?
3:04:48 pm
My “go-to” pedal will probably always be my modded Boss DS-1. Can sound like anything from a tubescreamer, to a mesa boogie stack.
3:12:08 pm
My favorite effects pedal is the TIM by Paul Cochrane. It is the most transparent boost/overdrive pedal iI have ever used. It makes my amp sound the way it does when it is cranked but at low to moderate volume and it does so very convincingly.
3:41:16 pm
visual sounds jekyll and hyde dual overdrive pedal is my fav because it kicks my amp up a notch to totally annoy my neighbors
3:49:57 pm
My favorite effects pedal right now is my Electro Harmonix Ring Thing due to its versatility. I use it for ring mod, vibe, tremolo, chorus, and Whammy effects.
3:59:57 pm
For the price – my Danelectro chrous, flange and echo are awesome…just a beginner and focusing on learning to play but having these ‘toys’ makes my practicing a bit more entertaining.
4:00:26 pm
My favorite pedal is the Dunlop 535Q CryBaby, because it’s the only pedal i used to plug for years !
Others pedals never spend more than 2 years in my gear 🙂
4:06:04 pm
Favorite Effect Pedal – Boss TU-3, saves me from tuning by ear and saves everyone else from listening to me tune by ear!
4:13:57 pm
This might be surprising, but my favourite effect pedal is my old behringer BO-100. It started as a very generic and boring overdrive, until one day something probably broke up inside and turned it into an insane fuzz, with lots of oscillation, feedback, and sometimes a sound akin to a broken synth on the low strings.
4:14:35 pm
My favourite effects pedal has to be the Electro-Harmonix Big Muff.
good song !
5:04:34 pm
well? the funny thing is that i dont have a favorite pedal I just cant afford it! but i still got my GUITAR!!
5:50:51 pm
I love my Fishman Aura pedal-add some vibe to any acoustic, especially when you end up playing thru someone else’s PA..
6:35:09 pm
my favourite pedal has to be my jim dunlop cry baby pedal i have had for 15 years , a basic cry baby is the root to all styles and is a must for any fx arsenal
6:37:33 pm
My favorite pedal is the Dunlop Cry baby wah ! you can reach soma amazing tones only with this pedal , this effect allows you to play funky riffs to metal solos !
6:48:48 pm
My Wampler ecstacy drive. It can go from a nice clean boost, just to give a little more ‘oomf” or give me a solid chunk of gain, while really overdriving my amp.
It also feels extremely sturdy.
7:29:49 pm
My favorite is my old RAT pedal with the LM308 op amp. I like the way it clips and grinds for certain songs. It is a raw,expressive distortion that gets that attitude across.
9:39:57 pm
The Cry Baby! Because only a guitarist might like the sound that a crying baby does. Anyone else could finally commit suicide… 😀
10:35:44 pm
the Fulltone OCD because she’s so HOT !!!!!
12:07:20 am
Electro-Harmonix
12:26:39 am
My favourite guitar pedal ? The WMD Geiger Counter !
When Atari meets a Guitar … really funny to use. A lot of settings … too much settings for my poor little brain !
So, I recommend this pedals.
12:32:25 am
Only a Boss ME50, and i’m using only 5 or 6 presets, very simple, and sometimes a Morley Wah/Volume…
Perhaps it would be better for me to sell it and buy a few pedals.
Thanks for the give away
12:47:36 am
Boss DS-1 pedal, love the distortion
1:36:31 am
My favourite effect pedal is the simplest one : Ernie Ball Volume pedal. The greatest guitarists I heard in my whole life were more amazing by playing with the volume and silences than with any other sound effects (it includes Mark Knopfler, Buddy Guy on stage, BB King, ….)
2:05:14 am
Ibanez Tube Screamer – the name says it ll!
2:19:33 am
My favorite pedal is my FAB Overdrive, which is silly because of how cheap the damn thing was, but I have a pick up on my acoustic Mandolin (I’m a professional mandolin player), and the sounds are just so wild yet awesome. Love it!
2:49:19 am
Analogman King of Tone for it’s transparency. It has a great dynamic range. Love it with my 52 tele an deluxe reeeeverb.
