If you're planning on using the loop of the TBD try to pick up a Mid Fi Clari(not). It's an envelope controlled pitch shifting delay, I think Doug is still making them per order. In a feedback loop it gets pretty out of control.

Get a Dano Fish and Chips eq and put it after a dirt pedal in the loop. ITs cheap as hell and ohh the noises it makes!!!

The ibanez tonelok chorus/flanger looks like it can already make fd up sounds on its own, so it might be a cool addition.

i put a wah in there before, coupled with a delay set to oscillate, it's madness, u rock the wah to raise the pitch of the feedback and it's awesome, ear piercing if the fuzz side is not on, totally louder than the fuzz itself, careful with the amp, your bandmates, or the crowd, someone's gonna go deaf, even you. no joke man. advise wearing earplugs.

Fish & Chips is pretty good in there, I also like the DOD fx75b flanger (turn up the trimpots and it will oscillate and get spacey) the DOD fx57 Hard Rock Distortion (built in slapback delay, has a trim to adjust time but I havent touched mine). I also like my rat in the loop since it will produce a constant feedback, but I really like the cheapo starcaster distortion for the same reason plus it has lots more eg options to tune the feedback. All (except maybe the rat) are available generally for under $40, sometimes way under, I think paid about $25 for either of my DODs.

ibanez DE-7 could do the trick too, and it aready sounds good by itself.
as wah in feedback loop, DOD FX17 is dirt cheap and more synth like than cry babie or vox, really close to zvex wah soundwise. and it's annoying volume job is sometimes a pro than con in feedback loop...imo

anybody used one of these cheap guyatone delays? if it'll do the job id definitely rather pick up something like that than plunk down the $$ for a carbon copy. i guess i should probably go with a used digitech or boss delay than something expensive... i try to keep tonesuckers like that outta my rig but i guess it doesn't matter so much for this. i've got a nice little a/b/y box to cut the whole thing in and out of the chain as necessary.
thanks for all the help folks

Whatwould a wah sound like in a feedback loop.

i've never used the guyatone delay - but i do have the micro chorus and micro flanger and have been pleased with both. the micro chorus is still on my board for vibrato-like swirlies. i know a guy who was really tickled with the delay, so much so that he ditched his boss to buy a second guyatone.

i will say that the first chorus i had from guyatone had a faulty switch, and i understand that's not totally uncommon, so if you go with that make sure you get it from some place with a good return policy.
