I currently have a BOSS BCB-60 pedal board with a TU-15 tuner, a DD7 delay pedal, and an RV-5 reverb pedal connected to the Post EQ Effects patch on a Peavy Nashville 1000.
What other BOSS pedals does everyone use that work well with pedal steel guitars that you would recommend? And when do you use them?
Thanks, Tony _________________ MW Custom SD10, NV1000, Fender Twin Reverb, learning PSG after years of playing Acoustic Electric |

Unless you're into special effects (sound-wise), it looks like you have what you need. |

In addition to what you have, a little chorus effect is always nice. |

Heres my pedalboard. Includes 4 of my favorite Boss pedals. I run this thru the post eq send /return loop of an NV1000. I play guitar and mandolin thru this as well. Only thing I might add would be tremelo and reverb pedals.

Ben, may you please give me a hint about using a GE-7 to simulate the dobro sound? |

Thanks everyone for your comments and suggestions. I am now thinking of adding a Chorus Ensemble CE-5 or a Super Chorus CH-1 for PSG. I am also thinking about adding a couple of additional pedals so I can use the board and NV-1000 with a regular electric guitar as well that I have been playing through a separate modeling amp. Two that I like are a Blues Driver BD-2 and a Acoustic Simulator AC-3.

You may also evaluate adding a "made in japan" Boss CE-2 from 80's (green or black label on the bottom).
It's not that easy to find but IMHO is by far THE chours pedal. I have just seen a few on ebay.
Later versions (made in taiwan) are not as good. |

Chorus is good. Then you don't have to worry about tuning your steel... |
