Well this time I mean it !!!
It's paying off bigtime though...I had Slash's guitar sound from "Paradise City" down last night, and today have a really nice acoustic version of "Sweet Child of Mine," I'm going to play out tonight at the senior center. With all this new gear, I can pull up many different sounds....

No, it was necessary. Gotta have a decent EQ. That'll help shape the sound very much. You can have all the distortion, wah-wah, reverb, delays, and echo's you want, but an EQ will help tame the sound and pull out unwanted tones. It really is a must have.

I've already have a wide Holey Board pedal board that can hold quite a few pedals....I'm planning a section that I'll be able to quickly add or subtract pedals as needed. I already bought a medium sized suitcase to hold unused pedals. Most of the pedal configurations I'll be using only use 4-6 pedals at one time. Sometimes just 2 or 3. The last thing I want is a pedal board with ALL my pedals on it...it'd be huge. remember this is for a home recording rig, not a live rig. So changing pedals back and forth as needed will be commonplace. I did have to buy a couple of 18 volt power supplies for specialty pedals. I already have 9 volt adapters and splitter cables so I have plenty of power.
On YOU TUBE there's a video series called "Sound Like (insert your favorite guitar player here)". These two guys from England, go into a music store and select a rig to sound like the Artist in question. They try to do this on a $1,500 budget, including a guitar, amp, and pedals....sometimes they do it with no budget...they cover many different artists, and usually are spot on with their sound alike attempts. I've gotten many great ideas on which pedals to get from these guys. Some effects are used for multiple artists. In any case they've given me a starting point on which effects to buy. I've walked in to many stores and they have 50 different pedals there to chose from, it becomes overwhelming. The guys in the video series give you some direction on how to navigate thru the many various pedals. I've selected Slash (Guns and Roses), AC-DC, Nirvana, Eric Clapton , and Jimmy Page on artists's sound I'd like to emulate. So there is a method to the madness.

I should mention that, I'm not buying everything they recommend but basic units...like phaser, delay, eq, wah pedal, boost pedal... on occasion I'll buy exactly what they recommend like the Octave fuzz, Crybaby wah, etc...
I'm surprised how close I come to getting THAT sound....It really demonstrates to me how much practice I need to get the licks down.

Last night I picked up a Fuzzrocious "Feed Me" pedal...
"FEED ME is a tone shaper that takes any signal you feed it and applies a blend of high and low pass filters to provide the user with 20,736 different tone stacks of his/her choice. Yes, that is NOT a typo…20,736 combinations available via the four (4) 12-position rotary potentiometers (those four pointy colored knobs)." It may take me a while....😂 Sent from my SM-G928V using Tapatalk
