Youre on an island with 2 pedals

Besides the obvious answers, like a boat. I am very much in love my Mooer Bass Sweeper right now. I don't know why but it just sounds right to me. I've also discovered an unlikely gem - an Eno TC-16 Trouble Overdrive. From A little dirt to some dirty grind this pedal just works. And for $22? I don't see a down side. Let's go to the islands, Mon!

I would get two of the same as long as they looked like coconuts. Then I would fashion them into a radio like the Professor did on Gilligan's Island.

Except I would radio for help and get us off the island. Then both Ginger and MaryAnn would forever be grateful to me.

Anyone who reads this and doesn't know what I mean---- get off my lawn!
 
If it's really the island question, then probably a beat buddy and a future impact - at least that would keep me entertained. A looper would be cool too. Maybe a looper with percussion beats instead of the Beat buddy?

If it's what pedals can I not do without in my rig, then it's probably a Cali comp and something like a Valvecaster
 
Well you said I could have my rig which negates my need for the Aguilar Tonehammer.

AG500 adds a good amount of switchable OD/dirt/fuzz already.

I guess I'd bring my Brimstone Audio XD-1. Its a dualband distortion pedal with a crossover and gets pretty much any sound you want out of it. You can also you it as an HPF, LPF, and a boost. Super nifty with only 11 knobs and two footswitches.

After that, I guess a good 10-band EQ and lament that I no longer have any octave pedals.
