hello all i have been experimenting lately with my pedals but i cant seem to reach which fits perfectly well where..... please i would like you to help me out by suggesting a signal chain strating off with the guitar

the pedals are :

Fulltone OCD
Fulltone OCtafuzz
T-Rex Mudhoney
Keeley Compressor
TC Electronic Sustain + PArametric EQ
RC Booster
Analogman Clone Chorus with deep option
Retro Sonic Phaser
Boss OD-2
Boss DM-2
Electroharmonix Micro Synth
Guyatone WR-3
Crybaby Wah


my latest chain is guitar>crybaby > WR-3 > Keeley Comp > TC electronic Sus > T-rex > OCD > Octafuzz > RC Booster > Phaser and in loop chorus and delay


i am using a Mesa/Boogie Triaxis preamp and a VHT 2/50/2 power amp

and id like ot know if i use the Triaxis in front of the pedals or after ( guitar > Triaxis > then pedals ) or what .....

i am after the distortion sound that Guthrie has got as lead without all the excess gain and noise ........

thanks alot

Doesn't the wah need some sort of buffering in front of it?

Haven't got a clue about some of those pedals but I have owned a Triaxis. To get a nice smooth lead sound out of that gear I'd use the MKIV setting and work with the EQ to try and get a nice sound. I'm not sure it'll sound similar sound to GG's but it'll be good.

as for the buffering you mean either an Axess electronics Buffer splitter , or any booster pedal ????

actually i have been wanting to buy a Teese RMC 3 cause the crybaby is noisy and its wah sweep range isnt that good .......


thanks for the Triaxis tip Tony .....

I think the signal chain is ok...but if you want something closer to guthrie's tone a mesa boogie triaxis will not get you there..thats for sure...plus do make sure ur not confusing his tone with his fingers.....whati mean is..if u see a video of him playing clean you'll know that lots of his tone comes from his fingers Laughing
