what should i buy next?

Post by madmax1012 »

so i finally got my first tube amp. Vox Ac-15c1 is pretty much what my dreams are made of. for pedals i'm running a boss tuner, a boss chorus, a boss dd7(sometimes), a Fuzzhugger Algal Bloom(Always), and the glorious M9. basically, idk what to buy next. I'm set on guitars, but i feel like an OD pedal maybe?any other suggestions for pedal purchases? the Lunar Echo is gonna have to wait again until i sell the dd7, but i think i'm set on delays for the time being. i guess i'm probably in the market for some dirt pedals, so any suggestions would be awesome. or should i buy an actual pedalboard so my rig doesn't look like a pile of cables and metal with shiny lights? thanks :thumb:

Dwarfcraft Internet Overdrive is always a cool choice, not your every day OD. Does great low gain tones and gets pretty nasty when you switch on the boost and crank the RAMS :evil:

I had an AC15 before I upgraded to an AC30, the Fulldrive 2 from Fulltone sounded like heaven on both amps, particularly in the 'Comp-cut' mode, added some serious growl to the sparkle.

Vox amps seem to like Rat pedals. A lot. Even my little SS Pathfinder. So a Rat or something in the family is worth a try if you want a fairly conventional dirt/OD pedal. Or you could get another fuzz. And this isn't quite ilovetubescreamers.com, so the fuzz suggestions will come in. Rumor is that Algal Bloom into Fingerprint/Snowflake is awesome for shoegazing.

I've heard many say that the Crowther Hotcake is the best pedal with an AC.

Wilson Effects Lotus Drive, I have tested on a few amps and it sounds awesome, makes my valve junior sound like a monster.
Dual Lotus is awesome as well.

I would go the dumble style OD direction instead of the TS808 types.

Also the Noisemaker Effects Overdrives look awesom and have great prices.

Pedalboard, power supply, a good guitar setup (if you don't have it already!) It's not necessarily fun stuff to buy but it makes life so much better!

Screw OD. Get a decent treble booster.
if you must have OD, the Crowther Hotcake is awesome with Vox amps.
Good deals done with all these guys
