Currently. it goes like this.

Holy Grail Reverb
Boss DD-20 Giga delay
Line 6 DL-4 Delay modular
Boss Super Chorus
Boss Equalizer
Boss Noise Suppressor
Morley Little alligator volume pedal
Russian Big Muff
Boss Tuner.

Any suggestions.

Welcome to the board. Be sure to check out this thread for tons of info on pedal order.

http://guitargeek.com/chat/showthrea...threadid=56732

I'd start with the following order and tweak if from there.

Boss Tuner
Morley Little alligator volume pedal
Boss Equalizer
Russian Big Muff
Boss Super Chorus
Boss DD-20 Giga delay
Line 6 DL-4 Delay modular
Holy Grail Reverb

Might want to switch the delays around depending on how you use them. Also, some people like the chorus before the dirt.

Should the tuner go before or at the end.

Most people put it at the beginning, so it gets a clear, strong signal.

It can also be put at the end, so you can mute everything in a flash.

putting it at the beginning will mute as well...

unless you have trailing delays/self-oscillating crap.

are you going into the front of your amp, or are you using your amp's effects loop?

Well after a lot of experimenting mine is as follows:

Amp to

Tuner-Delay-Chorus-Grapic EQ-Tube Driver-Wah- to Guitar

I never did get the before or after, but I have experimented a lot and my rig sounds like **** unless I set it up in this order.

But of course it's all a matter of preference.

I'm going to the front.

Amp to reverb to delays to chorus to eq to noise suppressor to volume to big muff to tuner.


Mainly my tuner is at the end so i can still be running a loop, or delay, and tune in between without anyone noticing..

Any other suggestions?

this is hurting my head. i thought we all called the pedal closest to your guitar "the beginning" of the chain.

We do, as that is the direction the signal flows, some people just have it backwards...

Sorry for all the questions, but if i did do that.

Will it make a big impact on anything, or will i still be able to get the sound, and everything the way i want it?
