In this episode we discuss the ingredients in a basic pedalboard setup. Whether you’re Ty Segall, and only use one pedal, or Johnny Greenwood and use a ton, every guitar player makes choices about what pedals they use in every situation. Not using pedals is a choice. The order in which you place your pedals matters. It can get complicated real fast.
