I have 4 pedals a HOF reverb a clean boost a delay and a tremolo. I almost never use them. Although I do like the sound of the church reverb on the HOF and a slight delay.

For me it depends on the situation...

- Recording, Learning songs or general practice? - 0 (I use an Eleven Rack w/ Headphones)
- Goofing around for fun? - 0 (Guitar into various amps)
- Travel to friend's house or to sit in on occasion? - 4 (Tuner, OD, Dist, Delay on a Pedal train mini)
- Full 3+ hour gig? - 8 (Tuner, delay, 3 OD, 3 Drive, Phaser on Large Pedal train) + Wireless Receiver

Gotta admit, it's been years since I've unpacked the large board, though!

I have 4 pedals: 3 OD/distortions and an EVH Phase 90. And I don't use them.

I also have my Eleven Rack, which scratches any effects itch I might have.

Give me the amp's OD and reverb any day of the week, and the reverb is very optional, even if the amp has it. Especially the awful digital reverb on my 6505MH.

@Milkman, they have some HX Stomps for cheap at L&M Kanata if you want to go down that rabbit hole....

Ooooooh, why did you tell me that @Rollin Hand? I have the HeadRush, but it’s a dud. J (the bass player) let me use his HX Stomp amd it pretty much had everything I needed.

Gotta go... Long & McQuade is calling me...

Today’s version. Swapped out the green muff for the rat. With my Gretsch 5622 through the monoprice 5 watt. That’s a power supply on the left.

Was attempting to practice with the looper.

Needs some work.

So you would buy it before I did.

Although last I checked, they had two.....

It’s still $800 @Rollin Hand, too rich for me right now.

They had a couple on the blowout sale for $549. Understandably, they gone.

Tuner, OD, Delay, Reverb.

Have other ODs and chorus, but usually not on my board at same time.

I would definitely have pulled the trigger on that if I’d known.

I want to look into a new compressor for my chord melody stuff, potentially a new delay, definitely a new tuner pedal as mine is dust now.
