Ibanez TS9DX Turbo Tube Screamer

So the TS9DX arrived today. This is what I've been searching for! The sound. It brings my amp right where it needs to be. This was made for classic rock. I have yet to really use the last two settings. I like the TS808 and + settings. I love this pedal!
Xotic Effects BB Preamp Overdrive / Distortion Pedal
I use this with a Strat and a Suhr Badger 18Watt combo, and it sounds really good. It maintains your playing dynamics, and doesn't muddy the sound like most other overdrive pedals.
It's true bypass meaning it will not affect your signal at all when bypassed, which is nice if you have a quality guitar and amp, but I don't even care cause I leave it on most of the time!
It accepts a standard Boss AC adapter and has a battery compartment.
This is probably not what you're looking for if you are a metal player, but if you play blues/rock, do yourself a favor and check this pedal out!
DigiTech TL-2 HardWire Metal Distortion Extreme-Performance Pedal
This is hands down the best metal distortion stomp box u can get at the moment. it has such good clarity and sustain... i play alot of metal from metallica to new age metalcore and thrash... There is nothing more i can say it is by far the best sounding metal distortion stompbox out there today... Also there is barley any feedback when u are not playing.
Electro-Harmonix Little Big Muff Distortion Pedal
This pedal is great. The Sustain knob (controls dist./sust.) has a wide range of choices. You want a great 70's dist. or a bit more heavy? Just adjust the knob! AWESOME and very smooth sustain, and the tone is killer from this pedal. I only had to tweak the knobs a bit before I had "that" feeling iin the back of my neck. The one that says, "That's it right there!"
The size of this pedal is nice too, it's a bit wider than say a BOSS, but it doesn't take up too much room. The box is pretty sturdy, it will take some abuse!
Alone or with a few effects, this is a great pedal
Maxon OD808 Overdrive Pedal
The Maxon OD-808 is simply the best I've played.
The controls are simple: Overdrive, tone, balance. 'Nuff said. I was amazed by how much range I found within these, though! My favorite setting is Overdrive and Tone at around 12 noon, with Balance at about 2-3:00. Awesome...super creamy and responsive. I play with a Telecaster, and this thing makes it sound like a dream that shakes me walls (normally considered a nightmare).
I've never played an original tube screamer, but this thing is 99% the same pedal, down to the chipset inside (based on the research I did). Plus, at 100 bucks cheaper, why not go Maxon anyway? Seriously invest in one of these. Pricier than some other overdrives, but well worth the cost.
Digitech DDM Death Metal Analog Distortion Pedal
This pedal is perfect for any metal head! Don't waste you time on the other pedals. This one is the best you can get, and it's cheap too!
Review:
-Makes small amps sound huge, and huge amps sound... well just sound bigger.
-Can get soft sounds out of it
-Less expensive yet still as good
-Built like a tank!
-Gives you sounds of all good Metal Bands (Iron Maiden, Judas Priest, Slayer, Metallica... etc.)
-Excellent beginner/intermediate/advanced pedal.
Fender 351 Shape Pickpack (12Pk) Confetti, Med
I almost didn't order these based upon other peoples experience with shipping picks. Glad I did, I received all 12 picks on time. I have enjoyed this picks very much.
Fender 351 Shape Pickpack (12Pk) Shell, Med
The FENDER medium shell pick is the best ever. I'm a GIBSON guy, but always use these picks. They always deliver and feel right. You will lose them way before you could ever wear them out.
Maestro by Gibson Traditional Series Single Cutaway, Purple Sunburst
Maestro guitars of any kind are of great quality for the price. If this is ur first electric guitar you'll love it. Two suggestions though. The strings sound good right out of the box but don't last long. New strings is needed fast (heavy duty preferably). Next thing, the amp is pretty amazing for the size but it only has a tone knob so adjusting the sound basically meens really bassy (only the top 3 strings) or really tenor (the bottom 3 strings). Overall a great deal and awsome for beginners. Happy Playing.

GET THIS HERE !!
Gibson Les Paul Studio Electric Guitar (Faded Cherry Mahogany Chrome)
Just the facts: Paid the extra for the expedited delivery. Guitar arrived in case packed in original Gibson cardboard box - on time and no damage. Some buzzes coming from a and e strings, haven't done any tweaking yet. Fret work seems even, but a bit sharp on the ends. Neck feels just right - not too fat. They just bumped the price up by 2 bills. Sound is pure Les Paul. No inlay on headstock - just a sticker. I would buy another one - even at the new price.
Gibson Les Paul Studio Electric Guitar (With Case) (With Gold Hardware, Wine Red)
Just bought this guitar a few weeks ago, and believe me, its an amazing piece of musical instrument...its playability, the way the sustain just easily rolls off without too much work, and the looks and build quality is undeniably Gibson. I still have my old Epiphone Les Paul and it has served me well, but my new Gibson is lighter, sound tons better, and the action is low and easy.
If you don't need the LP Standard binding, and care less about the added price, then the Studio LP should be your next axe...same electronics and same sweet rockin' sound with the awesome sustain to boot. Great guitar!
Gibson SG Standard Electric Guitar, Heritage Cherry
This guitar is the best playing, best sounding guitar I have ever owned, and I have been playing for 30 years! I grew up on Fenders and through the years have never found a Gibson that really "felt right." Now my Strat is feeling neglected! I think Gibson went through a period of poor quality control but looks like they have really got it together now. Fretwork, tuners, control knobs, everything is top notch! And the humbuckers can do it all musically. Plays like a dream!
Gibson Faded SG Special Electric Guitar, Worn Brown
I bought this guitar and I just enjoy it. The sound is very impressive just like it's more expensive brothers. The look is great and the total feel of the guitar is what you expect from Gibson. Don't be fooled into believing that this is just a step up from the Epiphone SG. This is the real deal and for the price you can't beat it. Only A Gibson IS Good Enough ! Play and enjoy !
Maestro by Gibson Metal Series Single Cutaway, Diamond Plate
Apparently my son thinks his guitar is a gift from God that will propel him into stardom. The guitar did arrive on time in great condition. He has played it during every waking moment since he received it. Good price, great customer service.
Maestro by Gibson Short Scale Mini Flying V, Red
This guitar is nothing but the best which I expect from Gibson products. The paint is beatiful, the feel is great, and you'll have to cradle it in your lap between your legs, but it's so light it's easy. See Marco's video. If you want a nice addition to your collection, and something truly unique other than a guitar shaped like a W, (Get it? Next step in Alphabet?), order this right now. Stop reading this and order. I'd give you my credit card, but the magnetic strip has been stripped down to the plastic by Amazon deals.
Fender Starcaster Strat Pack - 3-Tone Sunburst
Its just amazingly perfect for playing at home!!
It includes everything. And I mean everything that you might need. Its not even mentioned in the product description that a headset is also included! Which is totally what I needed as I play it for hours and hours and I should not be disturbing others. Amp is cool, its loud enough for home use. It has Bass and Treble effects as well which is very cool. A guitar stand is also included which makes it easy to keep the guitar when not in use.
About the guitar itself, it needed a bit of tuning when I took it out of the box, but that was again very easy with the chromatic tuner provided. After that tuning its just been sounding inch perfect!
Everyone around me is in love with this guitar. Trust me it won't let you down. A fender is always a good choice! Specially if it comes with all the accessories for a really great price!
About amazon, very fast service, cheers!!
I paid for standard shipping only. And I got in something like 60 hours!
Fender Starcaster Strat Pack Electric Guitar with Amp and Accessories - Midnight Blue
I don't know much about guitars so I can't compare this item with other guitars.
For the price of this setup I would consider it a bargain. Including a tuner is a life saver since I am tone deaf and would have no other way to tune the guitar. Including the guitar stand was another bonus I never thought of. Now after practicing I have a convenient place for the guitar.
At first I wondered whether the problem was the guitar when I had trouble with cords. Now I know it was me. After a lot of practice I get it right most of the time.
I would recommend this item to anyone starting out to learn how to play a guitar.
Fender Starcaster Electric Guitar Pack with Amp and Accessories, Candy Apple Red
It's a great guitar with great sound; honestly, the sound is fantastic. And there are a lot of peripheral items included at a fabulous price. We've had no problems at all with the cord or amp, and the sound that little amp makes it really clear. Hit the overdrive, and you get a nice distortion sound. You can't control the amount of overdrive (it's either on or off), but for a beginner or for household use, it's perfect. The compact guitar stand is very stable for its size.
If there is one drawback to the guitar, the edges of the frets are a little rough, something I've never encountered with a Fender product before. I find it noticible, but I wouldn't even call it uncomfortable. And certainly not so rough as to cut up your hands, as one reviewer exaggerated.
One final note, the guitar not only sounds great, it looks beautiful as well. The candy-apple red color is rich and deep (slightly darker than the picture), and the finish has no flaws at all.
Fender Starcaster Strat Pack Electric Guitar with Amp and Accessories - Black
I give this four stars for a starter set. the guitar, overall plays pretty well. It's a fender, of course it plays well. but, the 6th string and the 3rd string go out of tune VERY quickly. like, maybe two minutes after play without a tune up. the strap is a firestarter, good for about 2 months of regular play. the amp is great, good clear sound, even when its turned way up. the cable is also cheap, but fixable. it broke down after 3 months.
Personally, since I had been playing with my acoustic for about a year and a half previous to buying this, I regretted it. If you're alreay an intermediate guitarist, go for quality, not everything in one package.
