hey i was wondering if you could tell me of any good overdrive and delay pedals that are under 100 each? i'm going to be playing some really ambient background effects. it's for worship at my church. i've looked at the boss super overdrive and a deltalab delay pedal and was wanting some more advice on the subject on pedals in general

i really hate all new pedals. especially boss. they sound so thin in tone and distortion sounds so fake. even the mxr now. custom pedals now are good. however really expensive. what id do is get a used tub screaamer, they sound good. and a good delay is mxr carbon copy. their chorus is also good.

try a reverb maybe. im not sure which ones are good, you can find out on Musicians friend or something probably

might wanna try out a tremolo pedal too, i think Electro Harmonix or Voodoo Lab are good, even though i havnt tried them

a Line 6 Delay through a lexicon reverb would make excellent tool for creating the "ambient effects" you are chasing.

Define Good?

I've gotten a couple of washburn over drive pedals from target on clearance for $9 each. I got a blues overdrive and solo distortion. If you super picky about your tone you probably will not like them, I like a little cheese with my distortion so it works fine.

I don't really use them much, i pull the them out once month and then put them back to collect more dust.

never ever ever buy anything from first act. they are total crap. most of the others are usually good though
