TESTEMONAIL:  Right and Discordianism allows room for personal interpretation. You have your theories and I have mine. Unlike Christianity, Discordia allows room for ideas and opinions, and mine is well-informed and based on ancient philosophy and theology, so, my neo-Discordian friends, open your minds to my interpretation and I will open my mind to yours. That's fair enough, right? Just claiming to be discordian should mean that your mind is open and willing to learn and share ideas. You guys are fucking bashing me and your laughing at my theologies and my friends know what's up and are laughing at you and honestly this is my last shot at putting a label on my belief structure and your making me lose all hope of ever finding a ideological group I can relate to because you don't even know what the fuck I'm talking about and everything I have said is based on the founding principals of real Discordianism. Expand your mind.

I don't actually own any pedals, due to the fact that I've always been in bands with other people who owned tons, so I don't really know what I have used. So, pedal geeks, recommend some good pedals!

ElectroHarmonix. 
-Big Muff, Memory Man, Electric Mistress, Black Finger

You might also want a Rat pedal, for a different kind of crunch.

Will look into all of the above, thanks LMNO.  :wink:

Incidentally, because they like clever names:

Big Muff, Rat = Distortion
Memory Man = Delay
Electric Mistress = Phaser
Black Finger = Compression

Have you seen this site before? I just found it today and think I just found my new video game. Also this counts as technology.

The site is useless.  Doesn't support ElectroHarmonix.

If you're the only guitarist or are otherwise playing alone, you might also want a chorus pedal to fatten up the sound a little bit, especially when you're playing clean. I think Electro-Harmonix's is called Clone Theory. The DOD chorus pedal I have is actually pretty good and probably the only decent pedal DOD made. It's discontinued now but you can occasionally find them used on line. Though I am tempted to get another one at some point with a more pronounced vibrato fuction, like maybe the BBE Mind Bender or a Univibe or something.

The Memory Man has a pretty kickass chorus as well -- after all, chorus is essentially a lightning-fast delay and some filters.

I usually turn on the chorus effect on my amp to take care of that. Having a pedal wouldn't be a bad idea though.  :)

True that. I think that's what Pat uses. I think that's the only pedal he uses really, and usually just gets distortion from his amp. Not really sure how I became a pedal junkie but I like the variety of different sounds it offers. I need to use my phaser at some point, since I haven't used it since my last band. I am quite fond of my tremolo though and is probably my favorite pedal, along with the reverb.
