Your desert island effect
Hi all,
Eric's "Stick Effects" thread inspired me: If you could use only one effect with your Stick, what would you use (and why)?
My favorite would be a delay pedal, for me it's one of the most versatile effects. You can - use it with long delay settings to play lyrically - fatten up the sound with a short delay - with only one repeat and a shorter delay time you can double your speed while playing riffs - with a very short delay time and high feedback you can get a comb filter-like effect - with a long delay time and high feedback you can use it like a looper
So what is your desert island pedal? I'm curious.
Johannes

What Brett said.

Re: Your desert island effect
From where you get the electric supply on a desert island... and thet's not the only reason why I'm not amused of desert islands... ...and at the end, I can only a little bit better swimm than a stick does...

Re: Your desert island effect
Have the EQ and reverb I need for the highs on my AER amp. As for power, a solar charger for the battery would be nice...
Externally, a good hall reverb and tape echo type delay are always near the top of my list.
Cheers, Andy

Re: Your desert island effect
I would want a full range harmonizer to combat the loneliness. As for reverb or delay on a desert island, you people must be masochists.
No doubt, I would play "Message in a Bottle" better than Sting himself if I ever made it back to civilization.
