Guitar Effects

Post by Axtech »

What does everyone recommend for a good guitar effects/distortion pedal or pedal-board that offers a variety of effects? Preferably something high quality...

Well, it depends on how much you want to spend and what you prefer in your setup.

by the way, I'm going on my own personal preferences. :oops: :love:

I tried this one out several times before and I think its a great pedal. I'm not too sure home much it costs down in Kingston but I found one in Edmonton for $250.


or, if you are like me and like to spend the sacajuwayas in your set-up...:

But the best thing for you to do is to go down to your local guitar shop and test them out yourself. :)

I've never been able to find a pedal or system with effects that I've been consistently happy with because it always changes with the amp that you're using. So I decided to just invest some money in an expensive amp with all the effects that I want built in.
