This is what I use these days. Like it so much that I droppped all my Boss pedals (well, all two of em anyway)..

EA this looks impressive and complicated. Can't find any details on the net but it's an effects box not just a beat/drum sound?

I'm looking for a 'thumb' more like a double bass sound.

 

Thicker strings and work on the palm-muting, maybe, no effect springs to mind that would give you that without changing the overall sound. Perhaps a bit of slapback delay would enhnace the bass sounds your getting and add extra thump

Yes, its mainly an effects box, but not complicated otherwise I wouldn't know how to use it. And I'm not one of those effects nerds that needs to know all the intricacies and tweaks.

 

I just use the chorus, volume boost, reverb and some delay plus the looper sometimes.

 

Quite idiot proof.

How about suggestions for a rhythm box? I would like to find a simple way to add drums / tempo, that gives me more than a metro nome. I have a Dr Rhythm, but can't figure it out. I bought me wife a small drum (jimbe sp?) but she won't play it. I am technologically very impatient - I need plug and play.

Boss makes a pedal called Super Octave OC-3 i think? You can dial the frequency in that you would like the octave to stop. So you can have the octave active thru the D on the A string. Pretty cool sound using one of these with the right styles of music.

Isn't that a 'Heavy Metal' type box?

I think Mr. Fretplay may have been misconstrued here, and may mean something like this:

I'm an endorsee of Ellis stompboxes (along with Tommy Emmanuel, Jamie Cullum, Kaki King and others...not sure why I made the list!) and, having tried many others out there, I can vouch for Ellis' boxes being the finest I've ever set me clogs on.

Can any members recommend a stomp box. I want one to record with so with plug in effect. They seem to be all prices but what do you get for your buck?

 

 

Hi, I'm using a stereo Boss RC-3 (no effects but drum beats and three hours recording and USB) and if you want more and effects, you might check this:

 

Boss RC300 Loop Station Guitar Pedal (you can do almost anything with this one) but $$$

 

 

There is also the Boss RC-2 (less expensive ).
