Just wondering, I'm new here. I occasionally deploy a Danelectro Reel Echo (Excohplex), or Maxon AD-999 Analog Delay. Not too often though..

LOL...Not really. I use the rat pedal only for a few songs (Nitrous burn-out and Pipeline) And the wah is used on Jack the Ripper. Ive got an Crate vc311 ive been practicing with but in a fw weeks I plan on getting a Kustom Coupe 72. |

I use the tremolo effect on my amp, sometimes a digital delay, set to simulate a rockabilly echo, and overdrive sometimes. |

Call me old fashion, but I like plugging directly into a one knob amp. I just placed an order for a Vibrato pedal, will be my first pedal ever! <img src="klzzwxh:0000"></img> |

Okay, so would a Kustom '36 Coupe be a good choice for an at home/studio combo? Matt —Fast Cars & Loud Guitars! |

I use basically all Danelectro Pedals (the big metal ones, not the little plastic ones) -- The Daddy-O Overdrive, Danecho Digital Delay, and Cool Cat Chorus. I also use the vibrato on my Showman, as well as a Verbafuzz Fuzz Pedal. The Overdrive is the only one is use very consistently - the others are more likely to be used to give a little aural difference to whatever I'm playing, but like all good things, must be used sparingly. ~B~ |

i am a proud owner of an ibanez ad 99 analog delay. its a wonderful thing. so i use a korg stagetuner and that delay into my fender 30 amp. that amp has a pretty nice reverb. —www.myspace.com/captaintwangandhisrhythmcat |

all details though, (when playing surf) it's just guitar-tank-amp 90 % of the time WR —Rules to live by #314: |

I have that same tuner. It's probably the only piece of gear I have that's never let me down in some way. Sometimes I mess around with a Tube Screamer, one of the old Electro-Harmonix Big Muffs that's built like a tank, a Digitech DigiDelay, a cheap little DanElectro Slap Echo, and a sad $20 Rogue wah. (Usually not all at once, though I guess there's always next time for that.) If it's surf, then usually just reverb, and sometimes a touch of delay. No offense Bill, but I'd shoot myself before I'd use a chorus pedal. -Warren —That was excessively violent and completely unnecessary. I loved it. |

since someone asked about (before it was finished) in the chatroom, I'll post some more pics of my "surfboard style" pedal box. I put it next to the reverb tank to give an idea of size. it's just an MDF homebuilt box, paint and a shitload of sanding. It serves absolutely no purpose over a standard alu camera-gear style pedal box (and cost about the same to build, 40 bucks or so), apart from that I like to retreat into the toolshed every now and then to do some "woodworking". WR
PS more of the same which our other guitarist sometimes uses, or I use it when Im just fooling around.
