Members eiolenii Posted May 23, 2006 Members Share Posted May 23, 2006 Hey! Thanks for checking this thread out. So okay, i have just got some free money that i'm going to spend on a pedal or some pedals. It's not much, about 200 dollars. I will buy something off of ebay but i haven't made up my mind on waht to buy. Currently I have: Boss ME-50 (modulation and delay mostly)Boss PH-3Boss TU-2and a cheap-ass Behringer tremolo I'm just getting into the pedal stuff and trying to expand my gear. What do think i should get? I play mostly hard rock but also jazz?I was thinking about a DD-20 and some line6 and Electro-Harmonix pedals. Should maybe get something else besides Boss. Okay say what you think Karl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members inscho Posted May 23, 2006 Members Share Posted May 23, 2006 I have to say that I don't like the ph3 it is way too digital/synthetic for me. it absolutely molests your tone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members eiolenii Posted June 3, 2006 Author Members Share Posted June 3, 2006 Okay guys, I'm back!Got my DD-20, which I'm totally loving....But a dude contacted me on a local Estonian forum and offered to buy my digital PH-3 for 120$..I was amazed and of course i said YES.. It's almost as much as a new one costs But I'm not sure if a new phaser is the way i wanna goSo now i've still got my heavy-ass ME-50 (which i tend to love due to the harmonizer effect), my new DD-20, my TU-2. the happy-crappy Behringer tremoloAs I'm a student and don't have much money to spare, i need new ideas what to get at the price range of 80 dollarsAny recommendations are welome....i'm been thinking of getting a new distortion but i'm not sure i could find anything at that price...help me dear friends:wave: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members L6Sguy Posted June 3, 2006 Members Share Posted June 3, 2006 why dont you decide what sounds you wanna make/hear, and then we can point you in the direction of cool pedals of that particular type? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members eiolenii Posted June 3, 2006 Author Members Share Posted June 3, 2006 hmm...what sound what sound...i myself play a lot of nu-metal and stuff like that (korn.pod ect.), but also i play with my brother in a sort of a jazz rock fusion band....i'm not really sure about the certain sounds...maybe a fuzz, maybe some modulation which pedals do you love for that 80$ limit It's hard for me to know due to the fact that in Estonia we mostly have only boss pedals:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
