hes right pedals should be specific to amp and guitar combinations like this pedal is for a strat into a marshal or this pedal is for a paul into a fender but i suppose set it clean for a paul or set dirty for strat

One device that gets ignored for the most part compared to all these specialized usually overpriced boutique this and thats, that makes a huge difference in tone is an equalizer. Hardly see one on all these hi tech boards. EQ. Now thats an effect

[@VertexEffectsInc]

Very underrated, I agree!

[@MAP448]

Sounds so much better w/o the compressor...the notes separate & are allowed to bloom

[@taylorcranford3741]

Hey I just got the boss es5 switcher and I’m running a “strymon bridge” and my pedals under the bridge aren’t engaging when I plug my power supply in. So I would have to manually switch them on and I can’t fit my fingers in between the bridge and the pedals. How can I keep the pedals on or how could I make an easier way to open the bridge up and turn them on when I have to unplug and plug my pedalboard in?

Ya hooo I made it on time
