Members motzman13 Posted March 10, 2010 Members Share Posted March 10, 2010 I had my dream setup for pedals... a few times... the last time they added up to around 1500 bucks so I just sold everything and bought a hot rod 62 strat and started over... I feel like everytime I start over I get smarter... I am no longer buying 200 dollar pedals I use once during a set.... I just got an m13 to cover most of the pedals I would only use once or twice and bought dirt and analog delay that would be on most of the time... So now I have a guitar I love and pedals that I am happy with even though they might not be my dream setup for each individual style of effect. I can do as much if not more with my new setup and love the guitar I am playing.... just my two cents... its always good to start over, never get to comfortable and learn from your mistakes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members The Snake King Posted March 10, 2010 Members Share Posted March 10, 2010 I got the amp & guitar I wanted & settled on like 6 pedals (for the time being). It's a give & take game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members hot_karl Posted March 10, 2010 Author Members Share Posted March 10, 2010 Buy an amp and a guitar you like the sound of without pedals, then start buying pedals again. I already have this, I just want a vintage firebird, they are reaching ridiculous prices these days... and as for pedals, I'm not really hording them, I just keep buying and trying to find the select few that i really love.

Members oinkbanana Posted March 10, 2010 Members Share Posted March 10, 2010 pedal and microphone addiction is easy because the people around you don't really understand the value and price that these little objects can cost. They're little and you can hide them. but when you've got a bunch of guitars, people will sooner say something. ask 100 random people which seems more valuablefive epiphone guitars vs fifty pedals99% will think the guitars have more value.

I think it's this one but @ work/can't watch. [YOUTUBE][/YOUTUBE] On topic - buy the guitar now, buy pedals later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members SharkMinusBear Posted March 11, 2010 Members Share Posted March 11, 2010 I cant control my gear needs.... I thought I was safe by being satisfied with my pedalboard, amp, and electrics but now I want a vintage archtop acoustic.... I need help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members SharkMinusBear Posted March 11, 2010 Members Share Posted March 11, 2010 FYI the amp game is 10x more stressful than the pedal game, really take your time before making decisions or you'll be miserable. I highly recommend playing stuff before buying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
