I don't actually have a board made lol But that's similar to what I use. Keeley DS-1--808 Tube Screamer and an EQ in the back.

The Tubescreamer is REALLY Organic and great sounding when the amp is up loud.It's a bit mid rangy but with the EQ shaping in the back it's not an issue.

I have never tried an actual tube screamer. I have used pedals that model it but never the real deal. I have used a DOD 250 my thinking was it was a lot like that?

axl2

I know that the Maxon OD's sound a bit like the Tube Screamer. The 808 doesn't have as much gain as the TS9 and other ones like that. So if you're looking for something for metal it wont do it. I use it to boost my gain, but I'll use it on the clean channel to get a Stevie Ray Vaughn type tone. The Tube Screamers have a really distinct lead tone. I really like the Bad Monkey because it had a bass control.

The Tube Screamers really have a lot of mids so they really "scream"

Hi,
here is my current pedalboard:

Dunlop FuzzFace

Boss BF-2
MEK TD-1

Ibanez CS-9
Line6 MM4
Boss PH-2
Boss DD-6
Boss GE-7
Boss TU-2

Hei, that is a nice board you are using! May I ask you which brand is it? I have been looking for one boeard with two levels big enough for all my pedals, and yours looks like it might be exactly what I need!

I was getting really really into effects when I was using my old vox valvetronix amp but once I got my marshall i just kind of stopped. I even forgot what I used before other than the Boss DS-1 and the Bad Monkey. Right now I only use a Marshall Halfstack, an Ibanez Artcore, and a guitar cable to connect them.

mightypudge

Front of amp:

• Peterson Strobo-Stomp
• Dunlop 535Q Wah
• Fulltone OCD

Loop:

• MXR Carbon Copy
• Boss DD-3

I like having both analog and digital delay types on my board for different flavors and settings.

Jesstaa

Absolutely nothing =P
I go direct from guitar to amp, and I could keep it like this.

In front:
VooDoo Labs Sparkle Drive (boosts signal, cuts treble, adds gain/punch)

In Loop:
Volume Pedal (TU-2 in the 'tuner out'...not in the chain) > Boss CE5 (chorus) > Boss GE7 (mid/bass boost, treble cut) > Boss DD5

Everything is on all the time. Roll up/down the guitar volumes/tone controls for fine tuning.

Gotta leave those Boss pedals on all the time or they suck some of your tone.

Wants:
MXR 10-band to replace GE7 (then maybe use the GE7 and a solo boost).

My board changes slightly, but this is my usual. I'm going to add a mxr 10 band real soon.

I run this this with a jaguar with paf and superdistortion pickups, into either my 2203 or 2210.

The board is homemade from plyboard and I use a 1-spot to power everything except the small clone and polychorus.

Before the amp (Marshall 6100LM):
Boss TU-2 tuner -> Fulltone Clyde Wah

FX Loop (serial):
Boss CE-3 Chorus -> Guyatone MD-2 Digital Delay -> Boss FRV-1 '63 Fender Reverb -> Xotic RC Booster

- I actually prefer my Arion stage tuner since it tracks faster, but the Boss TU-2 has more tuning options, so I use that instead.

- I like the feel of the Fulltone Wah compared to something like a Crybaby wah and it sounds great too.

- I mainly use chorus for clean. The Boss CE-3 chorus kind of scoops the mids a bit. Thinking about replacing it with a mono chorus pedal that is fuller and lusher.

- I like the Guyatone delay a lot. I like it better than the Boss delays I've tried in the past which seemed cold and metallic.

- I bought the Boss FRV-1 '63 Fender Reverb pedal because I've played a Fender Twin Reverb for years and have grown accustomed to using that Fender reverb sound. I use just a little bit so the amp doesn't sound too dry, especially for clean tones. It's also nice to know I can "surf" with my Marshall if needed.

- I use the Xotic RC Booster for boosting solos. I originally put it before the amp because I thought I would need to generate more distortion for solos (mainly to get the sustain). But boosting a distorted preamp doesn't produce enough of a volume increase for me. So now I run it in the loop. It mainly adds some volume and fatness and perhaps a little sustain too. The pedal adds a little distortion which is great for getting those edge-of-breakup sounds when I use it on my clean channel.

actually my pedalboard is a piece of leftover wood we had from redoing the bathroom or something... cut it into the shape of this one gun case, spraypainted it black, and put velcro over the one side... works beautifully and costed me nothing because we had the gun case floating around the house anyway (was acutally used for a camera we had that broke)

anyway... as for effects i dont really use much... tuner, eq, boost, etc.... im kinda glad i have this small POS piece of wood pedalboard because i dont have any more room on it for any more effects... so it limits me essentially lol...

the more the pedals, the more stuff to bring as well as more possible connection problems to arrise in the middle of a gig...

thrawn86

Just use a Digitech RP200 to preset a few favorites and misc. effects, and an ElectroHarmonix Holy Grail for when I want some thick, juicy reverb.
I agree with the sentiments posted sometime earlier.....I just like to plug in and hear the great Marshall tone, not a Rectifier being emulated through it(although I will of course use that from time to time ).

I'm a purist guitar -> cable -> amp guy that's been converter to effects, so my board is pretty limited. My signal is guitar -> x2 wireless -> planet waves tuner -> ehx electric mistress -> mxr carbon copy -> keeley java boost -> amp now. Pic!

My pedalboard is all loaded from the front since I've experienced some volume issues when using some of the effects in the FX loop of my TSL 100.

guitar > Boss TU-2 > Fulltone Clyde Deluxe > Boss CH-1 > Boss BF-3 > Ibanez TS9DX > Boss NS-2 > Boss DD-20 > Amp

The Tuner is great for tuning and killing the signal when swapping guitars, I use the Fulltone Whah mostly in the "whacked" mode, which in my opinion provides me with a warmer effect, Chorus is often very usefull, Flanger for some special effects, TS9DX for extra punch and saturation during solos, Noise Suppressor - simply a must have , Delay - rarely used but usefull at times.

I just went simple and bought a Boss ME -50. Six months on and I'm pretty happy with it, the preset system could be better setout, but hey it's got all I need.
