Green Pedal Board
I was working on this board for quite a while, I think I'm happy with it now.
In order to keep it light and compact, I just chose the basics I use the most:
A compressor, two tube screamer - like pedals, a fuzz, a wah and a delay - oh yeah and a tuner of course.
First in the chain there is the compressor pedal. It is on almost all the time but I turn it off when using the fuzz.
Next is the Big Muff Fuzz - using the bass version works great with guitar for me.
It also has two separate outputs which I use to split the signal for the overdrives and the wah pedal.
One line of the split signal out of the Muff Fuzz goes to the Morley Kiko Loureiro Wah - yes it's wah after fuzz for me in this case.
The pedal has a built in distortion option and also functions as a volume pedal by which I am able to silence one amp completely if so desired.
From the wah the signal goes out to amp 1.
By way of the direct output of the Big Muff the second line of the signal goes straight into the Nobels Overdrive - my first mild gain stage.
The Bad Monkey is used as second gain stage, both overdrives work on their own or stacked and can also be combined with the compressor pedal.
The Bad Monkey also has a second output which I use to connect the Korg Pitchblack tuner.
After the overdrives there's TC Electronic "The Prophet" delay just to enhance the sound slightly.
From here the signal goes out to amp 2.
So to recap:
I use two quite basic and yet very different sounding signal paths for my two amps -
one gets just (the compressor), fuzz and wah.
The other one gets the classic combination of compressor, overdrive(s) and delay.
Settings - TC Electronic Mojo Mojo and Dark Matter
Nice and very flexible overdrive (MojoMojo) and a great "amp in the box" pedal (Dark Matter).
They can be combined quite well but I use them individually at the moment - running into the clean channel of the amp.
The Dark Matter gives me instant Doom Metal tones from back in the days.
Just put the guitar on the bridge pickup and roll back the volume a little bit.
