What kinda effects do you use?

[INVERTED]

I was just wondering what kind of effcts pedals, processors and amps you guys use, and who the manufactuer is.

I play Through:

Marshall JCM 2000 TSL 60 with a 4x12 cab

For my effects I have:

Boss DS-1 Distortion
Boss MT-2 Metal Zone
Boss CE-5 Chorus Ensemble
Boss RV -3 Digital Delay \ Reverb
Boss NS-2 Niose Surpresser

Every thing sounds pretty good depending on how I have them set up.

What do you Like?

[mtlgtr]

Well since I am not such a rich person and my parents don't pay for a whole lot of my stuff it's pretty cheap.

I use a Hughes & Kettner Triplex amp. It has a built in overdrive with reverb, chorus and delay.

And I have T-Bone distortion i like it 'cause it's really heavy.

Thats cool. You have far more for your age than I did In my golden years.

But I'm not rich either. I work as a sales person in a department store. Everday, I wake up, get ready, and drive 45 minutes to work and back, and bust my ass for a bunch of inconsiderate assholes! Mommy and Daddy never bought me SHIT! I work for my money. And everything I own I payed for myself. Plus I've been building my collection for some time now. All my spare change go's to my guitar.

I was just curious what other people like that is all.

Peace!

[Atheist]

hmm, wish I had a marshall. I play through a fender ultimate chorus combo amp and use a boss distortion pedal and a digitech delay.
You'd be surprised how brutal of a sound I can get through my fender amp. I hate fender guitars and their amps suck, but it will do till I can start saving for more audio equipment. Priorities go to drugs and my car.

Personaly I hate Fender myself, just because ther're Hippy guitars. But I was looking through your profile and I saw Obituary listed as one of your favorit bands. To whom it might intrest Trever Perez from Obituary plays Fender Strats exclusively. Different for a Deathmetal band don't you think?

I know I worked for everything I have. Only I work at a farm driving tractors and that kinda shit instead of at a department store. and my parents don't give me much of anything either. My work is actually pretty fun but i don't get paid that much for it anyway. About $4 an hour.

Oh yeah and I forgot to mention that my distortion is a Darelectro one.

[undefied]

i use a very, VERY old crappy Peavy 50 watt amp. and i got the Wayne's World edition Fender Squier that i bought from my friend for 50$ in perfect condition when he got his Gibson Les Paul. (lucky bastard) had a death metal distortion pedal but i don't like death metal distortion(too much feedback) my band is like a mix between deftones and other heavier elements so alot of feedback doesn't go well with our sound. sold that one.

[Evil_Neil]

I have a dan electro black cofee
I love it it's something i always use
when i play
I also have a rocktec phaser which
turned all the way up greats this airy
led zepplin sound
I also have a some other effects that i
bought second hand but they suck
like every one else i have to save up
just to buy strings because my parents
won't help me
I also took a job at a farm picking pumpkins
in october just to buy my first guitar

Hey, same here!! My drive is only about 20 mins, though. Everything else I can relate to.




My equipment:

- 1962 Gibson J-45 acoustic (handed down to me by my father)

- Samick Strat copy

- BC Rich Bich (bought second hand, in mint shape, with new case, for $200)

- DOD FX7 multi-effects processor

- Korg Toneworks AX1 multi-effects processor

- Proel volume pedal

- Yamaha KS 50 amp (125 WATT)


I also had an Ibanez wah, a Crybaby wah and a Yamaha stereo chorus pedal, all of which I sold after getting the multi-effects processors.


And like INVERTED, my collection has been gradually built up (over 6 years for me). And almost everything I own I paid for with my hard-earned $$$$$

[Evil_Neil]

in adition to the black cofee a just resently bought a pastramia over drive I find it best to run the black coffee through the pastrami rather then vise versa because it gets a huge sound almost simalar to a big muff which my friend has. it just explodes the sound and i would highly recomend the big muff
:flame: :flame: :flame: :flame: :flame: :flame:

[iced_earth811]

heres a rundown of my equipment


Ibanez GRX20
D'Addario 10-49 nickel wounds

trevor

[Setdown]

I've got an Ibanez rg and i play tru an Hugnes & Kettner Attax (120watt) and I have a Korg Toneworks ax100g multi-effect pedal and I have an old crappy guitar!! Btw, Im a supreme metalhead now!! 100 posts!! HIHA!!:D :p

[Longjocks]

I forget half the shit I've used over the years. Now I only have a Marshall Valvestate 1100 or something... I can't remember... it's been busted for well over a year now. I haven't play through an amp since I tested my King-V's new pickups at a mate's place (Peavy 212 Special is what he uses... it's great). I only use my friend's stuff. Another friend has a Peavy 5150 with 2 speaker cabs... I get to borrow that here and there. Another friend has what I'm buying atm... POD by Line-6. It has great amp simulation and I can plug it straight into my computer to record.

[powersofterror]

i have the shittiest classic (vt series) peavey amp
i hate its electronical guts, because it is so soft.
i plugged next to a guy with a tiny line 6 and it blew
my amp away
the only thing im proud of is my custom made jackson
-1 humbucker and 2 single coils
and i also have the dod death metal(which sucks)
and a boss me-30 which i like

[Longjocks]

Heheh... good to see. They stuffed that up by limiting the EQ.

Hmm, here's an idea. Get a god damn job. Sorry, I just hate it when people say it's partly or wholly their parents fault they don't have money. Work sucks, but life with money can be great.

I have two set ups forpractice and recording with guitar.

#1 A 50 watt marshall amp with an Ibanez guitar and a boss ME 33 guitar prossesor (this is a great prossesor, doesn't sound cheezy like all the others).

#2 A 50 watt marshall amp with an ESP explorer and a DOD Grunge pedal (don't get fooled by the name, this pedal is HEAVY).

I like the marshalls because they have a solid sound for me to build on and the amps, not the stacks, have alot of power. I don't like their heads, but their cabs are OK.

[attleseyc]

My equipment

Les Paul Custom
Les Paul Standard

Rocktron Prophesy Preamp
Mesa Boogie 395 Power Amp
Mesa Boogie 4X12 Cab

My parents never bought me any guitar stuff, i had to pay for it all myself and it took forever to save up the money

Nice!;)

[Def]

Just wondering.

for Bass I use;

-Boss EDB-3 Bass Distortion
-Boss CF-2 Bass Flanger
-Boss CS-2 Compressor/Sustainer
-Boss EQ-2 Bass Equalizer
-Crybaby bass wah

If I had heaps of money and was a pure guitarist I would use;

-Boss MT-2 Metalzone
-Boss MD-2 Mega Distortionh
-Morley 'bad horsie' wah
-Ibanez tonelok Seventh heaven
-Ibanez tonelok Smash box
-Ibanez tonelok LoFi

I somehow like the tonelok series, though Boss pedals are better for on the road use

[morbid_death]

i use a digitech rp2000, and thats it. i've also got a Boss AW-2 but i never use it.

i have to go get myself a new manual wah and a dedicated distortion pedal soon, because the band i was just recently in was a sweedish metal type of band (like in flames and shit) and i didn't need a full on distortion but needed lots of effects...now i'm making a brutal black metal band in like 6 months i need a killer distortion.

[powersofterror]

dod sucks, and boss rules all!
i own the BOSS ME-30, and i love it.



ALL HAIL BOSS!

[Def]

yeah, boss kicks dod's ass, boss has never let me down this far, hopefully my fx will stand out tomorrow evening, leeuwarden hardcore bash!!!

[Darkenelf]

-Boss MT-2 Metalzone
-KORG AX 300G (multi-effect)
- XXL (distortion pedal)

[OpethRules]

Same here....only I use both of them constantly playing live.

[mrweijia]

dont have any at the moment, but i;m hoping to get a metalzone and the dunlop crybaby

[Def]

everybody should own a metalzone man :D

I'm a bass player, not a guitar player, but I like my basswah, I don't use it all that much though, our guitarist has a Boss V-wah, a multiwah pedal, it's pretty cool.

[Vrle]

I own ZOOM GFX-8 and hope to get a good wah pedal soon :love:

[ThroneofbahoS]

I simply use different Shreds... Marshalls and bosses generally...
It's silly to even think of making good music without shred...:p

[terminus]

I use DOD Death Metal Pedal, DOD Stereo Flanger, and a Line6 POD. I'm thinking about getting a Boss Metal Zone.

[Setdown]

men.. you guys forgot about the korg ax series.. Then can do some nice stuff!

fuck dude, how much did that cost ya?

[Dr. Landau]

I bought half of it used man.... Traded some with friends, guys from awesome bands that i'm sure youve heard of by the way. And EBAY! great deals going on there! I spend a good 3 hours a week hunting shit down on ebay. Some people are pricks and overcharge their shit, i compare the same unit againts a couple other and grab the better one. Another thing i often do is when the auctions over and the guy didnt sell it, I contact him and make an offer. 2 out of 3 times the dude goes for it.

[Freezer666]

i use the "crappy distortion effect", its built-in my marshall amp :rolleyes:

[dimeisgod69]

i keep my set up as basic as possible. i use a regular boss distortion, and eq. a danelectro delay and my crybaby. my amp has a built in chorus though so i use that from time to time.

[Bones98]

LOL!
I have;
-DOD Grunge
-Boss Heavy Metal (not Metal Zone)
-DOD envelope filter
cuz I'm poor as hell LOL!

But I plan on buying a Metal zone
and a Boss Flanger BF-3 or whatever
Update: I got a Metal Zone and a Crybaby Wah
they both sound great together

[dai saunders]

i use a zoom505II but wouldnt mind get a boss or a wah pedal

what is the best boss effects to get for heavy/death metal playing

[Def]

it's been said a million times :D

the boss metalzone MT-2, it has a huge range and you can really fix diffrent kinda distortions on it.

a GT6 is also nice though :)

[everlost23]

all this talk about the Metal Zone makes me sick. I used to use one way back when i played out of a litlle 15 watt crate amp. after that i got one of the Valvestates, couldn't get even close to a decent sound out of the pedal, so i used the amp distortion. got tired of that and now i use my VHT Pittbull. This produces distortion that I had only dreamed of having before. I tried the Metal Zone out on the VHT just for kicks... Terrible
:flame: Metal zone

[Def]

I think that's your taste of distortion, the metalzone is the best sold guitar pedal that boss has got it their range now...

I know there are some (better) distortions out there like the 'RAT' pedal etc...

but hell, a mt2 is just cheap and pretty versatile, that's why many people like it.

[Bones98]

LOL!
I have a 15 watt Crate amp.....
One day I'm gonna take it outside and shoot it with my
mom's 357 mag. LOL!

[MeTalManiac555]

I have:
1.) BOSS DD3 Delay pedal ( which sux and I wish I had the DD5 pedal)
2.) Darelectro Fb Tone Distortion Pedal
3.) DOD 69 b Grunge pedal which sucks too.

I want to get the Horsie wah- pedal and then get the BOSS DD5 pedal sometime after christmas after i get a Mesa Boogie Amp!

[Def]

yeah the morley wah's are neat:)

[MeTalManiac555]

I just got the new Morley Bad Horsie 2 Pedal, but not able to play it yet but everyone said it is a really cool pedal. You should try it out.:D Hail!!:stoned:

[crispen411312]

I play a Parker p-38 with an emg 81 in the bridge (which i want to take out because when i bought the 81 i only heard people rave about them, turns out its very thin sounding.) I use a 120 watt 2x12 crate with the built in effects. I use a furman 31 band EQ and a BBE sonic maximizer through the effect loop to clarify and customize my sound. I use a Big Muff for distortion, and a JH-1 Crybaby wah.

[Ivanhoe]

Peavey Rage 158
Korg AX1500G
Boss DS-1
Boss MT-2
Dunlop Wah
