This time I’ve got 4 pedals that are utility pedals or just always on so I don’t have as much to say about them individually.
Boss TU-2
I realized I’ve probably had this pedal for nearly 20 years. Only had my DS-1 longer. Can’t go wrong.
Boss NS-2
Recently got this to help tame all my drive pedals when I’m using my single coil guitars during recording. Using it with the Send/Return loop is the way to go.
Keeley Compressor
Had a couple compressors in the past that I was using more as an effect rather than a compressor and got rid of them. Got this sometime last year as I was recording more to clean up the sound. I just leave it on the “Always On” setting in the manual and turn it off when I use Humbuckers.
BBE Sonic Stomp Mini
People like to dunk on this pedal but I love it. It’s always on and I keep the bass lower and move the treble knob around depending on what I’m going for.
Very nice. For me it’s a Cmatmods Deluxe Signa Comp, always on… and polytune. But I have so many options and I’m not done deciding (are we ever?). For example… I often have on a low-gain centaur clone (as part of the OD-200), and have recently been experimenting with the SF-300 in boost mode as an always-on. I need to experiment more.
