You don't have to break the bank to get good guitar tone, so come with me as we peruse this plentiful payload of pedal penny-savers. In the comments below tell me which pedal was your favorite from today's episode and any other $50 pedals that you love and that I need!

      Hey! A while ago I did some research and virtually created a pedalboard where almost every item was under 50$, sometimes well under. I'll mention a couple of the ones I found most interesting, both from XVive: The V9 Lemon Squeezer (compressor) and the T1 Golden Brownie (allegedly a vintage JCM 800 in a tiny box). I wonder if you know them and what you think. If you haven't heard of them, I hope this comment helps you to discover some new pedals! www.xviveaudio.com I'd also mention their Tube Screamer but it seems to be out of production currently. It was nice because it was at the same time a Fuzz pedal once you cranked the gain past 12 o'clock, according to the reviews.

    In the 45 years since I played my first gigs, I've watched the pedal industry explode into a multi-faceted scene, catering for everyone from the multi-millionaire rock star, with more money than sense, to the kid saving their pocket money for their first overdrive. In the 70's, an MXR distortion plus retailed in the UK (from whence mine came), for what was then 2 weeks wages. But today, as your show so amply demonstrates, princes and paupers alike, can revel in the wonderful world of guitar effects. And thanks to people such as yourself, the hideous snobbery that so often spoils the enjoyment for the less financially fortunate, is turned on it's pompous ass, with proof (if it were needed), that great sounds are available, without a great bank account. Thanks again Josh, for keeping it real.
    FWIW, I have a $30 (Australian, so probably about US$4.50) boost pedal by Kokko, that never leaves my board. A lot of the pedals in this episode, are a fair bit more expensive in Australia, but still reasonable. And its great to have the Guru of More Good give the nod to these cheaper expression machines.

      I have it now. It's brutal lol.. Sucks all the bass out your signal into a cold metallic flange hell. Also, out of 10 pedals i have in the chain it makes the most noise, an ear piercing ring with paired with certain other effects. HOWEVER, you pump the bass up a bit and do some overdrive/compression before it hits this pedal and it's crazy good. Amazing. Will probably never switch it out, it's cherry on top of my heavy sound, the final layer before maybe an all encompassing stereo verb or delay at the very end of the chain. Helps me sound like Neil Young and the Horse at their heaviest and most psychedelic. That or Hawkwind. FK YEAH.

    I've got the DOD 747 flanger and it's by far my favorite ever. Every other flanger I find always sounds like a modulated bitcrusher, with a really digital sounding sweep. The 747 can do that style of flange, but if you dial it right and go for a more subtle chorus-type sound, it has absolutely no digital "edges" to the sound, and it sounds like your signal is running through water. Smoothest thing I've ever heard!

    Just wanted to say this channel has become my favorite TH-cam channel and I can't get enough of it. I've always loved guitar pedals even though I mostly play bass and synth. Some cheap pedals I have bought that I like are the Joyo JF-12 Voodoo Octava (it's green!!), Caline CP-26 reverb, Donner Ultimate Comp compressor & the Caline CP-18 Orange Burst overdrive. I was doing an experiment to see if I liked cheap pedals as much as the expensive stuff. I Liked them a lot. They are sturdy in metal enclosures and all sound good to me. My point is that for me price does not correlate to how much I like a pedal. Your video Made me happy because a person like you who is respected in the pedal world is kinda saying the same thing or at least that's my interpretation. Thanks for all the awesome videos you are making.

    When I first started playing acoustic gigs, I used the Edward the Comp pedal as a vocal comp with a Hi Z cable adapter. I used it subtly & once I dialed it in, it worked unbelievable well. It made my vocal notes sustain smoother and it helped even out the dynamics so I didn't have to move in & out as much. It actually sounded professional.
    Btw, I think if more people tried a bit of comp on their live vocals, they'd love it & so would their audience. It's almost like adding a bit of Autotune but in a more natural way. (Kind of similar to how reverb smooths notes out & makes them sound more steady/ uniform).

    I believe that was the most entertaining post I’ve seen in a while. As for pedals, I don’t use them in my rig, but I buy them for fun. A $200 pedal isn’t fun so great subject. And lastly, it’s not under $50, but at $65, the Artec parametric pedal is untouchable for using as a boast in front of the preamp. Why? Because it gets ant tone, but it’s quiet. Low noise levels are insane.

    I recommend the TC Electronic MojoMojo. It's $50 and sounds awesome. Paul Gilbert uses it, and he had some amazing tone when I saw him live a while back, so I got one for myself and it sounds great. It has a lot of gain available as well, at least enough to do 70s hard rock.

      I just boost with my overdrive (the Moonshine side of my JHS Sweet Tea usually) and there's enough gain. The MojoMojo by itself is good for more classic rock levels of gain.

    Then I went full-on rebel and moved the OD-3 in front of it and the world changed.
    An Overdrive, even a boosting eq, in front of the Planes Walker really makes it come to life.
    Goes to show to just try stuff.
    Now to get the volume difference between Si and Ge modes sorted.
