new stuff suggestions please
« on: December 01, 2007, 04:02:02 PM »
Im thinking about getting a new amp and some pedals. I have a Peavey Valveking in mind for the amp, what are any of your opinions on that. And as for pedals maybe a Big Muff or Metal Muff and some Boss pedals maybe the Octave, and Super Chorus.
Im trying to get a kind of CKY type sound. I play rock/experimental/metal/other I suppose would be the classification. Ive got an Ibanez RG5EX1 and soon to have a Parker P-44 guitar.
Any other suggestions/opinions would be wonderful

I like my NYC Big Muff, although it isn't all that versatile. Don't think about palm muting with it, but for big thick chords you can't go wrong.

Also consider how to power the Muff. It runs on 9V but with reverse polarity and a male input connector, opposite from the usual Boss power supplies. Can be overcome, I had to Macgyver a power supply by chopping a daisy chainer and attaching it to the battery clips.
