Right now it only sees bedroom jamming, but will hopefully will see a band environment soon. My thoughts on each component:

Korg Pitchblack Custom: Keeps me in tune and is easy to see and read. The Korg has a power out, so I might daisy chain the compressor off it to get another pedal on the board later.

SP Compressor: Originally was trying it out as an always-on pedal, but it felt like a compromise between my humbuckers and single coils. Now I’ve set it for when I want a squishy, clean rhythm sound.

Friedman Smallbox: Does the amp-in-a-box thing, makes my amp sound more like a Friedman, so no complaints. Still feel like I’m dialing it in as a good crunchy rhythm channel. I go back and forth between it and a DS-1W.

Blues Driver Wazacraft: Using it in the custom mode as a solo boost in both volume and gain. Sounds really good.

Carbon Copy: It’s the analog delay staple. Had one when they first came out, sold it when I took a break from playing, and bought it again.

Supro Amulet: Very similar to a Fender amp, but with a more leveled frequency response thanks to the Celestion speaker (i.e., not as mid scooped). Takes pedals really well, but I’ve noticed with ODs and distortions that things can get very bright very quickly. Right now it just stays on the 1 watt setting. Sounds great though with both single coils and humbuckers.

    Carbon copy! What a great sounding delay. That amp is beautiful. How is the headroom? I have a fender amp rn, but I’m passively searching for a different flavor.

      Thanks!

      The Amulet has built in attenuation with 1/5/15 W settings, so I guess it’s dependent on where you set it and how much volume you need. I have noticed (and this is confirmed by Supro’s product page for the amp, so it’s probably by design) that it tends to break up starting about half way on the volume, but this amp can get fairly loud and “half way” is beyond where I ever need it at the moment even at the 1W setting. Unfortunately, I don’t have any band or gigging experience to speak to, but I would assume that even it those volumes it would still keep up without much break up. There is also the Royale which is essentially the step up from the Amulet and it runs at 50W and I have heard it’s pretty killer.

      The Carbon Copy, yeah, I looked at other options and still came back to it. : P
