All depends on the context. For any band or genre

I agree with your point that maybe OP should just hold off on buying a new pedal. I feel I was in a similar situation as OP in that I was looking around at a bunch of cool effects but didn't see any urgent need for them. I do own a Zoom B3 that I need to explore more because I'm sure there are...

Man that looks awesome! I've never heard of the TL-6 before. When was it produced?

I tried to adjust the trussrod on my squier p affinity and shaged up the fretboard really badly. I've been too afraid to even look at trussrods lol

If you get it I'd be interested in your take on it.
