You ever get that warm fuzzy feeling?
As most of you know, I've been clinging to B/S/T like it's my own flesh and blood, on the hunt for the perfect mix of pedals. So today I was sitting around, and I've been trying, for the longest time, just to be HAPPY, with the pedals that I've got. Right now I'm without a delay (TimeLine is in the mail), and without a Reverb (RV-5 Shimmeries is shipping tomorrow), so I set up my board with a configuration that I've been working with in several variations since December:
EB VPJr -> Korg Pitch Black -> EQD Tone Reaper -> Sovtek V1 Big Muff -> SHO Clone.
I played with it for an hour. And it just felt GOOD. I felt GOOD knowing that the TimeLine and RV-5 were coming, because I know they are the missing link. It just feels like I've conquered some sort of mountain or something.
Not to say that I won't suffer from GAS in the future, but goddamn. It feels good.
Anyone else ever get that feeling?

i almost get that feeling every now and again, but i don't have a nice amp to make my pedals really sing. i tend to go through pedals rather quickly because of this.

Re: You ever get that warm fuzzy feeling?
I went through a similar situation last year. I was using my Acoustic 200h as my main head, but I really wanted to be able to push tubes. Honestly, Peavey heads are fucking terrifying and I really think you'd dig one if you could find it. I bought my Rock Master because it had a distortion channel, but in all honesty it sounds so good just being pushed by pedals.

Re: You ever get that warm fuzzy feeling?
Yeah this has been me as of the latest revision of my board. I'm gonna get a v2 Small Stone and possibly keep both that and my v4 or decide which I prefer and sell one. Other than that, the only thing I'd really think about adding is a DMM or something but I could totally live with my board how it is forevahh.

Re: You ever get that warm fuzzy feeling?
I just slimmed my 30 pedal rig to about 15 or so...
I am also going to probably slim it down a few more pedals...
because I discovered I'm a mainly dirt-delay kind of guy.
the feedback loop will always be a part of my rig... so I will always have a few pedals in the loop...
but as far as guitar goes, I'm REALLY happy with where I am right now...
and also, congrats, sir!
I've put myself on a gear moratorium until at least August. This ONLY involves purchasing, so I MAY be around in the trade arena until then

Re: You ever get that warm fuzzy feeling?
When i get a new fuzz pedal i normally just go guitar - pedal - amp and leave everything else beside. I love playing like that. And that is always the point where i realize which pedals work for me and which not...
