Essential Pedals. What's Yours?

[RCM 800]

ts9, delay and an EQ is really a part of my tone so kinda must have. Everything else is just icing. Some songs really need a wha and for that I use an OG Bad Horsie. I have a chorus on my board but most songs that have it can get by without it. I really like my trelicopter but only ever use it on a couple songs but it sounds great when I need it.

when I was in a band and gigging I always just plugged straight into the amp. Now being strictly a lower volume home player these are my essential pedals

gotta have my GE7 in the loop and my carbon copy out front.
(or boss digital dely) other pedals come and go but these are standard
no matter what in jamming on.

Essentials are just a Belle Epoch tape delay and a Super Fuzz. Most dirt I get from my amps.

My actual board setup right now is CB Wah (modified), Rat2, Super Fuzz (Univox clone), Ventura (Univibe), and Belle Epoch delay.

For home use I have an off-board Immerse MKII reverb that I run through the loop of my amps. Not a huge reverb fan but I like a good plate emulation for creating a haunting space when I'm feeling it.

Oh, and a TU-2, which obviously isn't an effect, but I mention it because the buffer in it helps my wah and SFuzz get along.

I wanted to update this but here is the basic scoop @ricksdisconnected

 

[Trumpet Rider]

Gas, clutch, brake.

 

[SkyMonkey]

A noise gate.

I tried a Boss NS-2 to begin with but I think I got a duff.
It produced a volume drop when engaged and using the in-built loop was a volume squelch disaster.
Replaced it with an up-front TC Sentry and it's here to stay.
The Zoom MS-70CDR at the back end of the chain has one too.
They make chugging a dream.

Almost any Klon clone, they just work for me.

 

[Whiteknuckle]

Soory guys, but some of you need an intervention :-D

Respect to people who list their gear in Excel!

Which one do you happen to use ?

 

[Electricfactory]

Rimrock Mythical Overdrive. I can't tell you how many times I've tried to replace it with something better/ pricier/ cooler/ more exotic. Every single time I come back to my Mythical Overdrive, probably the most dynamic pedal on my board.
