Ok so I have a birthday comin up and I am lookin to pick up some pedals/amp and stuff for my acoustic. I would like ot get alot, but am not really sure of what would be good, what do you think are musts?

Here is what I am lookin at: an amp ( a decent one), a Boss tuner (pretty sure on this one), a dd-6 delay, maybe 2, a line 6 dl4 sampler delay, maybe a mixer, a boss fs-5u footswitch ,maybe a tremolo, a mic, or a dd-3 delay, anyways what do you think is a must have?

A Crybaby..absolutly even if you've never used one, they are just awesome to have around and screw around with. You also might wanna pick up an effects processor as well, I have one for my bass, and it adds a lot to the instrument. To get one with really good tone you might have to spend an arm and a leg though.

Tremolos are really fun, but I'm not sure how great it would go with an acoustic.

Sansamp Acoustic DI. If you're gonna through all those pedals then get this little baby to boost that acoustic tone. I love mine. Makes your acoustic sound sweet.

Tim Reynolds swears by it!

Peace,

i just want to make sure you are buying these one at a time. buy them one at a time. go to the music store and they usually have pedals all lined up. so you can test certain ones and find what you like. i own a sansamp but i say go test a Boss acoustic pedal and see what you think. try them all out cuz ultimately you are the one who will have to live with your tone.

I will vouch for this set-up 250,000 % (and you could even exchange the DD-6 for DD-5 if you wish

)

Timmy vouches for it too

(well, add in a volume pedal, but close enough)
