A boss jack would not hurt the value. Plus it had grounding issues and needed fixed.
Trust you to pick literally the most obscure Pumpkins song ever.

Was the first one I ever heard (and about the only one I ever liked). Was here:

... and very much because I liked his pullover. And I think the DC jack would reduce its vintage m@j@. It is ace, mind: I plan to bring it to hypotheticalmidlandsfest.

Don't ignore me in the Gerry thread, BTW. You're out of the circle of trust as it stands.

should we start planning this yet? we'll have to keep tabs on noise levels, but if we stick them in the front rooms of the house, shouldn't be a problem.

I like my amp(Marshall Valvestate)'s reverb and chorus so I would get a saltshaker.

it's my weakness, it's why i fucking suck at mixing stuff..i boost mids on everything so it just becomes a soup. i don't have balance.

I always think that a guitar sounds better on it's own when the mids are super-boosted, so I just boost the mids on everything in every song and it ends up sounding silly.
you know that on Fender/Marshall/Vox style tone controls it is impossible to boost the mids. It looks like you'd be able to but in actuality the level of the mids is never above the bass or treble freqs no matter what you set the controls to. The old Orange Graphic amps had a Hi-Fi style Baxandall tone stack that let you boost the mids (essentially by turning down the bass and treble and just turning up the volume). There was a site that had a cool article about this and showed diagrams and everything but it was on geocities (RIP ).

Fuck it. I'd use my 50s tele, and the fucking line 6 floorboard M13 or whatever.

As long as the amp has a clean, a crunch and a half decent reverb, all i would want is a Wah-Wah.

All I have/everhad/use is an MXR distortion+ (if I do use a pedal) that I've had since 1978, still works perfect.

My Marshall JTM 30 has good Clean and Overdrive channels, so wouldn't have to have a OD/distortion pedal. (never too many OD pedals)
So I would basically have to pick my favorite modulation pedal. So I would have to go with the Small Clone Chorus. Modulation pedals rule.

salt booster unless i could still channel switch in which case i'd go with a chorus.

taylornutt, I see a fancy Boss Wah pedal on your board. What's it like to use?? Worth the money?? Always thought they are quite decently priced for the amount of gizmos they offer.

I like it when I actually use it. Lots of Wah aficionados don't like the feel of it, but I have never used any other wah so it works for me. Definitely demo before you buy. It was noisy at first (even when turned off), but I turned the drive completely off and no noise at all. I don't save settings, but I like the variety of sounds it makes. I tend to use the Cry Baby, Morley or Vox settings. Not a heavy wah user, but I like it. I actually have been playing more with the auto Wah on my EHX Worm at the moment.

hmmm
I don't really use anything other than dirt... so either one filthy great fuzz pedal or a massive amp.
Maybe an overdriven amp and a booster? Along Paul's suggestion, that would be pretty versatile.
JCM 800 and an EQ pedal?

Then i'll take your jag-stang off your hands...
but seriously, a multi-effects pedal seems logical to buy, it saves money, and has everything you need.
