help choosing effects unit

Sign in to disble this ad
Hi all. new here and looking for some advice.

I have a baritone bass/guitar and looking to pick up an echo delay and some kind of crunch distortion.


Now my ideal Purchase would be a line 6 echo park pedal and the electro harmonix tube zipper.

Just wondering if there is a unit out there that can satisfy both my needs or recommend an alternative.

Ill just go and purchase those two pedals in a month or so if i cant find something more suitable etc.

Thanks,
Boggy

Delay and distortion in one pedal is unlikely, unless you go with a multi, then you'd have those 2 plus a whole lot more. And, is the Tube Zipper a distortion unit? And, if it is, would it be ideal for use with a bass?

this is a little old, but i was humming along and found it.

The Tube Zipper is a great distortion. It can get great high gain overdrive/fuzz. No low end loss
