Got some EBS patch cables in today. Yay more board space!

Looking at getting an EQD Spatial Delivery. I'm digging EQD's modulation based stuff, and I really want a solid auto wah for certain songs im doing. Of course, I'm open to suggestions if anyone has something different to recommend or has experience with the SD.

Also thinking of getting an EQD Warden to add some sustain to my notes. I love my Necromancer Fuzz, but I miss the sustain my Big Muffs give me. Figured if its good enough for Matt Pike it'll be good enough for me right? Again, if anyone has any feedback regarding The Warden or anything else that can give me some sustain I'm all ears!

I've been really interested in the Warden as well; it seems like a really useful tool and I've really fallen for compressors lately. I'm currently running an Accountant on my guitar board and a Black Finger on my bass board. Both of which I absolutely love, but both definitely colour your tone quite a bit.

I've gone fucking crazy in the past 2-3 weeks..

Got my Greco EB-3 bass a week ago, bought a late 60s Sunn 1x15 cab (the oversized one that was sold with a Sonaro head) and I ordered two fuzz. One is a new really cheap russian made one-knober that I have know idea how it will sound but it looked cool and was super cheap so... and the other is a brand new Plum Crazy FX Khnum, it's a turret board rams head muff built with super high quality components, 70s NOS cap etc. Really looking forward to receive that one :)

I've heard about the tone coloring thing too. Honestly, my sound is already so over saturated that as long as the sound is good I dont really care. haha

Yeah I heard it can get really weird and chaotic. I'm excited to try that out
Got these the other day. The DE200 is great! It's surprisingly versatile and can definitely get really chaotic. I'm not really sure how I'm going to work it into my setup, but I'm definitely going to keep it around.

The Korg SD400 isn't as exciting though. Needs a little work as it's missing a bunch of screws and the tone pot is a little scratchy. It sounds really nice, but it's pretty straight forward.

If you like the DE200, get a Digitech RDS-something as well. Similar to the DE200 but much differently voiced LFO and longer delay times possible, plus loop changes (anything involving knob twisting) is non-destructive.

Bought a used Epiphone G-400 Pro with a bound neck (not the recommended SG Goth, but that looked like a good suggestion, also a lot cheaper, but the bound neck got me)

Common sense time:

Because I need a separate pitch shifting pedal more than I need a separate pitch shifting module. CV friendly makes it an easy choice.

Niiiice I'm eyeing up one of those to replace the whammy which I love but it's huge. PF feels more practical.

Hope you like.

I've always heard good things about Black Widows but never played them myself. I've not got too into the speaker rabbit hole because I'm really basic.

I've been using the Digitech RP360, which I think has the whammy 4 algo, and it is nice, and has all kinds of custom settings that aren't possible with the PF (or anything else for that matter), I just need a separate pedal for the modular aspect, pedal arrangements I can't do with the pitch shifting trapped in there (no fx loop).
The definition of practical, from the pitchfork manual:
EHX wrote:EXP JACK
EXPression input jack accepts a TRS expression pedal connector or a Tip-Sleeve 0-5V control voltage input.
God bless EHX for this. I might want a HOG 2 now. I loved v1 but flipped it for the Pitchfactor, which is what turned me on to the whole shreddy modulation thing, which modular is just as good/better at with any old pitch shifter, so might as well get the one that's supposed to sound the best. And I need an expression pedal now too, but it is on low priority until the time is right.
