hopefully something like this thread hasnt been done b4, but if i have a stock warlock with stock strings and stock pickups, could i just get a pedal and have a very nice, heavy tone, or do i should i get pickups and strings..i kinda want to get better pickups, but im hoping to get a nice pedal and save money...Also vise versa...should i get good pickups and that might be what i want

P.S. im not a tightass but im a bargain hunter
