Thanks.

Actually though, and this is just to help you out maybe in getting a tone
you like.

I don't use any chorus at all...occasionally on rythym tracks...but that's it.

I use what's called Detune. It really fattens up your notes, great
for soloing. Also, using a Ibanez Turbo Tube Screamer, which I just
found out the other day is a rare, and highly sought pre-amp/pedal.

You can get a Tube Screamer either used, or the new re-issue.
Put it in front of that RP and it will make a huge difference.
Guitar--->Tube Screamer--->RP

You will have to turn up your noise gate quite a bit because it does
cause some static when fully cranked, the tone and sustain are well
worth it.

Also, I use a minimal amount of reverb. You can get more reverb out of
a $100 practice amp than I use. Verb gives too much outside static/air
type noise. Kills all the punch...least with the gear I have.

Now, if you are talking a Lexicon Verb...that's different.

Continuing...

I use a "Studio" Delay...which gives the tone, or almost in my case,
of the great guitar Gods of the mid 80's-early 90's. The delay gives
you spaciousness...lushness. Gets rid of that too compressed sound
you hear in today's music.

HTH....and again, appreciate the comments. ;)
