Members gghyt101 Posted June 14, 2006 Members Share Posted June 14, 2006 I have $175 in credit at some small music store from returning a boss super shifter. Well, what should I get with it? I have NO effects or anything right now, just my SG straight into the 5150. What would you say I need most? I was looking at boosts, compressors, noise gates, reverb, etc. but idk which ones are good and fairly cheap. So any advice? I play mostly metal and classic rock, if that matters..

Members Mr. Poopsicle Posted June 14, 2006 Members Share Posted June 14, 2006 You'll most likely need to pay 20-30 bucks on top of your credit but I would want a delay. Line 6 DL4 or Boss DD-20 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members alteredsounds Posted June 14, 2006 Members Share Posted June 14, 2006 I've got a 5150 combo and honestly with the Decimator in the loop it is silent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because if I got that instead I would still have enough for something else too... edit: ns-2 I mean Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members alteredsounds Posted June 14, 2006 Members Share Posted June 14, 2006 TBH I really dont know that model, 'spect someone here should but the ISP I'd reckon to be the best pedal gate available. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members gghyt101 Posted June 14, 2006 Author Members Share Posted June 14, 2006 Originally posted by alteredsounds EHX Holy Grail is good. I've heard it adds alot of extra noise, but would the decimator take care of that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As long as you power it from it's own power supply, the Holy Grail will stay dead silent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
