| | | | If you were to only have one pedal...what would it be? Other than a tuner of course! If you were to only have one pedal/effect box what would it be and why? |

| | | | Well, I have my Black Finger compressor on all the time so I guess that would be it. But really it just ads a little flavor and punch to the sound, so come to think of it my 10 band EQ pedal might actually be more important as it is required in a few songs to get a deeper softer sound opposed to my normal aggressive higher midrangey sound.

And if I'm not mistaken, these units do provide light natural compression.
