Well, I was wondering what a good pedal line up for me would be. I only have two pedals right now, a Big Muff Pi from Electro Harmonix, and an original Crybaby. I guess I could get a chromatic tuner pedal. But I can't really think of any pedals, as I don't really use em a lot. If it helps, my music is usually alternative, punk (if you consider a blink-182 sound punk), and grunge. I think I could use some multi-effects from boss cuz they're cheaper than just single effects, but I don't really know. All I can think of is a tremolo and delay pedal. Tremolo multi-effects probably comes with a reverb as the other part. Don't know about delay. And I was thinking of chorus pedal, but I don't actually know what that one does xD. So any ideas on what my pedal lineup should be?

Tone is a subjectice thing, and you need to find your own way. Try out a load of pedals and see what you like.

That said, multi effects might be the way to go for you now so you can play around with loads of them and find out what combinations you like. You could use that information to buy individual effects if you wanted to afterwards...

Most of them have a tuner built in as well, which can be useful...

Get a Boss GT-8. It's expensive but it's all you'll ever need. Kinda like having 400 effects pedals, a guitar synth, a wah and a bunch of different speaker cabinets all in one box.
Grab one off eBay if you wanna save some money.

Oh...my...God. THAT IS AWESOME XD. Nice find. But I still want something from Electro-Harmonix, as they are like the best special effects pedal makers ever xD. I'm trying to think of some stuff from there I Could buy. TubeZipper? Q-Tron? Holy Grail?
