Only 10 pro artists on Equipboard own it, but it's ranked #16 in Switch Effects Pedals.

Reverb Effects Pedals

Boss RV-6 Reverb

Avg price: $146.00

I love it

Squeeze the full potential on this pedal using the stereo mode, is gorgeous, the hall, modulate is so good, the delay mode is very similate to a dd3 delay and the dynamic mode is just fun, and the shimmer is the best part if you want to create gorgeous ambient just put the tone in 0 and is a really mindblow, amazing piece of gear

Preferred Settings + Usage:

Shimmer mode with the tone in 0, beatiful landscape sound

Delay Effects Pedals

Boss DD-8 Digital Delay

Avg price: $182.12

The best delay in this type of model

Amazing build, a lot of effects, amazing sound, the stereo sounds incredible and you can adjust the delay repetition, but the secret settings it's a little complicated to learn how to use and the delay don't stop inmediatly, even you deactivate the trails, or maybe it's me that i need more experience with this pedal.

Phaser Effects Pedals

Boss PH-3 Phase Shifter

Avg price: $118.83

I love it

The classic durable design by boss, the knobs feel very weak but the variety of options this pedal offers it's amazing and massive, maybe have a little volume drop but it's for the same effect and still works in live venues, if you look for build a shoegaze pedalboard this pedal is going to give you that movement that you are seeking, have a very step learning curve but it's worthy.

Preferred Settings + Usage:

I love to put it before the overdrive for the van halen esque-sound

Tremolo Effects Pedals

Boss TR-2 Tremolo

Avg price: $103.08

Nice and simple!

It works, two modes, saw and square, good depth and very nice rate, in my version (black label) you can adjust the volume with the secret knob inside the pedal that's is very useful, so you have a tremolo and a good volume booster, the only one bad thing is not a stereo tremolo, but you can do wonders with him so use it wisely.

Preferred Settings + Usage:

I am an enthusiast of the saw wave mode, useful in slow and quick rate.

Delay Effects Pedals

Boss DM-2W Delay Waza Craft

Avg price: $165.50

Very beatiful analog delay

Amazing quality build usual in boss pedal, amazing analog textures without losing your volume, it have stereo output and a rate to configure manual with a exp pedal, love the two modes very different so the possibilities are high to experiment, i lke to use in mono mode and you can make a subtle reverb mode, i love it.

Overdrive Effects Pedals

Boss JB-2 Angry Driver

Avg price: $217.30

A beast

Finally i have it and what can i say, the classic blues driver from boss and the add of the jhs angry charlie, so if you want to save space in your board (my case) is your best option, beatiful design, easy to use, a lot of options to play, remote switch, very cool features, very transparent and clean overdrive, crazy distortion, good to if your intentions is to made shoegaze sounds landscapes and solos, it's worth it.

Preferred Settings + Usage:

Mix the angry charlie mode with a heavy metal pedal hm2 and you are going to obtain some crazy ambient noise sounds, beatiful.

Fuzz Effects Pedals

Boss FZ-1W Fuzz Waza Craft

Avg price: $178.77

Divine texture

A must to have fuzz pedal, ideal to recreate that 60's and 70's legendary tones, dark, crunchy, very dinamic, i use personally to make shoegaze textures and stoner riffs with the custom mode (also works with bluesy solos)

Preferred Settings + Usage:

I always choose the tone to the left, i'm love with the dark tones.

Chorus Effects Pedals

Boss CE-2W Chorus Waza Craft

Avg price: $227.01

THE analog chorus

The amazing pristine quality build of the boss series wazacraft, the stereo sound gorgeous and have three mode to experiment, it's so subtle and give you that dream-like texture that you need if you are seeking for a dream pop/postpunk/trashmetal project, it give you what it promises.

Preferred Settings + Usage:

it's funny but i love to squinting the knobs in the opposite side and in the more right mode of the pedal

Delay Effects Pedals

Boss RE-2 Space Echo

Avg price: $211.10

Beatiful textures

What amazing surprise this pedal was, it take me 4 months to learn how to use it and is worth it, a lot of options, with reverbs, delays and pitch, complex yes, but contains a lot of variations to make the most crazy ambient/shoegaze/drone music, a must to have!

Preferred Settings + Usage:

My favorite mode is the 6 and 7

Looper Effects Pedals

Boss RC-5 Loop Station

Avg price: $200.24

After many tries, this is my looper to go

I love the boss RC-5, it give you 100 memory presets, a lot of drum patterns to play, reverse mode, you can have more features with the footswtich and have very good quality live sessions, i use to play live with him and do wonders, nice quality the classic strong boss case it's just what i need.

Pedalboards

The best first pedalboard ever

The right size, good quality build material, solid metal, beatiful color, you can have 10 pedal boss in the outside and put your power supply, eq and compressor inside, the only bad thing for me it not come with both sides ducktape, but everything else is okay.

Switch Effects Pedals

Boss FS-7 Dual Foot Switch

Avg price: $71.32

A must have if you play a lot with loop pedals

I'm a looper weirdo and i use this footswitch with my boss fc-5 and boy... you can do a lot of stuff with this boy, can programme the drums, the tempo, a lot with this switch, use your footswtich for my fender bass amp effect, it work with my synth, useful if you plan to do a live presentation alone, you just need a lot of practique to squeeze all the possibilities, useful, i don't understand why people complain about the buttons they feel very good to me, good quality material.

Preferred Settings + Usage:

buy a TRS cable that divide from stereo to two separate imputs, Just put polarity in 1 and the mode momentary and you can use without giving energy.

Instrument Cables

Good quality cables

Orange offers some good durable and good quality cable for starters, beatiful made it and friendly price, it's worth the deal

Instrument Cables

Durable patch cables

If you want to save pedalboard space this is your definitive patch cable, amazing build quality, i use with my nux bumblebee pedalboard M and can have 10 boss pedal, best deal.

Compressor Effects Pedals

JHS Whitey Tighty

Avg price: $123.13

Finally i got it!

Finally i understand the use of compressor pedal and it's worthy, give you the 100% of your guitar tone or do crazy sustain thanks to this little fella, amazing quality, beatiful and funny design and the box and gifts makes you feel like you matter (this sound weird lol) but it do his job and now i understand it and now this is my always on pedal.

Equalizer Effects Pedals

MXR M109S Six Band EQ

Avg price: $115.89

It does the job!

Functional, easy to use, very good material, maybe a litlle noisy but easy to deal, a must have in your pedalboard, useful!

Effects Pedal Accessories

This is THE power supply

Amazing construction, durable, rechargeable so you don't have to deal with the weird random noises of the venues, i can play like 4 hours and still the battery is full, battery have color indication, green for full, orange to medium and red be beware to connect the supply to charge, have one switch to connect 9v, 12v and 16v, i connect 12 pedal (with daysichain) and everything is doing fine, and even have a usb supply so i recommend this pedal 100%, and very accesible price so this is a must go! joyo do a home run with this supply.
