It seems most folks use their Timmy to boost other pedals

I use it last to shape everything.

 

My Tim's absolutely precious as a standalone OD! And..it does work great into clean (Fender in my case) amps. whoever don't like it should just get a TS and get over it...which is cool.

 

I use it at the end of the chain of dirt - not as a boost. Seems a shame to waste the EQ putting it in front of other pedals with inferior tone shaping abilities.

I use it by itself all the time - it's my main meat-and-potates dirt sound, has been for 3 years now.

 

Hi,

I use my Timmy on its own, not to boost anything else. Before I discovered the Timmy I had been disappointed with the Fulltone OCD and the TRex Moller - two great pedals for what they do, I'm sure - which I both felt put some sort of "lid" on my guitar sound. Sometimes I'm sure that is what you want, but I'm an acoustic player that recently picked up the electric. I play mostly rhythm parts and wanted to keep the clean, trebly, stringy sound - a chiming clean but with just a little break-up around the edges.

I use Timmy to set my basic sound. It's on all the time. I don't use it for kicking in the next gear and really rock, though I think it could.

/C

 

I use the Tim as an "always on" OD when I can't turn my amp up as loud as I'd like. The EQ and lack of compression make it great for this. It actually can sound better and have more clarity than my amp cranked. For solos, using the boost or running another pedal into it works great. It really is a great pedal.

 

I'm with these guys.. Paul C's also an amp designer, and like brother Bjorn (the Mad Professor) across the pond, his pedals are among the most "amp-like" I've ever used.

So they're usually at the end of the signal chain, altho' I've often placed delay after - and certainly before samplers/loopers
