i would suggest playing around with putting your delay and chorus effects in the effects loop of your amp. By doing that, the effects will get whatever sound the amp produces plus the effects before it, and process that tone. whereas placing them before your amp will effect whatever tone your guitar will produce before your amp has anything to do with it. Personaly, I like my delay effects before the amp, and the modulation type effects after the amp (in the effects loop). There's really no right or wrong way to set up a chain of effects, it all depends on what sound you like best. I've even heard of some guy's who are extremely anal about their tone putting an eq pedal befor AND after their distortion pedal AND putting one in the effects loop. Now that 3 eq pedals, all needing to be set up different, plus the amps eq. Now that's a little over the top for me. But, it all boil's down to what sounds best to you.
