Guys? I think I'm... done?



I can't even remotely imagine buying anything else. I just can't. What would I do with it? I've got a ton of dirt, plenty of modulation, an analog AND digital delay... I could spend more money, but for what reason? I use these pedals to drive a pretty clean and flat Egnater amp, I have an American Standard Strat and a Gibson Les Paul Standard, so I'm within the normal range of guitar sounds.

I could maybe swap one pedal for another, but the ones I'd be willing to swap are ones that I rarely use, like the Hardwire Metal distortion, so I'm certainly not willing to spend more money to get a better sound once in a blue moon.

Yeah, I think I'm finished, or really damned close. I just thought I would share the happy news!

Replace the Polytune with a Turbo Turner and you are done.

Always sad to see a TGP member graduate.

You'll switch out some stuff. If you keep hanging around here at least.

haha.. for real!

Actually the ONLY thing I's day could be necessary is a quality buffer up front for all that cable you're running. Maybe a this1smyne or something similar?

If you feel completly satisfied with it , you shouldn't change nothing.

get weird stuff
like Moog, WMD effects.

And I don't see a pitchshifter or anything like that on your board (I know I'm talking like a dick - it's just that I sensed a hint of despair in your ellipses).
And is there a reverb there?

I wish I could get to that point, settle in and get the most out of all the pedals on my board. Staying off the forums is my first step, a necessity I've realized!

Yeah, the only time I believe the "I'm done" threads is if the OP never posts on TGP again after that...

This is what I think every time I see a "I'm done" thread that doesn't have a Turbo Tuner on it.

Is a Turbo Turner similar to Ike Turner, but he punches me in the face twice as fast as he beat on Tina?
