effect pedals

I think Boss on the whole is reliable. I think the best thing to do is look at artists with tone and effects you enjoy and would like to duplicate or branch from and check their gear.

well I kind of am, there's one guitarist who I really liked his over all sound and he used just a distortion, delay, and flanger pedal. I might want a phasor or something. and if money was no issue i'd expeirement with quite a few different distortions. but since I'm very short on cash, I just want the stuff that will work very well with me. I'm also looking into an ebow.

http://www.bossus.com

at the top of the site there is a tab called "interactive"

In that menu there is a tab for "virtual pedal board"

It allows you to add 6 pedals to the board and turn them on and off while a demo guitar track plays...its really sweet and it should give you a better idea of what effects are.

I love that thing. I go mess around with it at work all the time. Won't let you do certain pedal combinations though.

ok i just checked musiciansfriend and they must have jacked up the price of the DD 20. I was looking to get one of these a few months ago and they were only 180$ and now they are 220$.. which it a total bummer.

If you look hard enough online, you may be able to find it cheaper, and then Musician's Friend will most likely match the price. I don't think I've ever paid full price at MF. They are very, very good at matching the competition. Of course it has to be retail like Sam Ash, American Musical, Guitar Center, etc., but I can usually find some place that has a price 5-10 bucks cheaper than MF, at least on more pricey items.

Don't know if you've already looked around, but it's worth a shot.
