A friend of mine, who owes a music store, suggested to me that a digital delay and a chorus pedal would give me a fuller and richer tone. I've never used effect pedals and don't know much about them. It was suggested that I go from my steel to the volume pedal, volume pedal to the digital delay, digital delay to the chorus pedal, and chorus pedal to my amps. (I have a pair of Peavey Session 400s.)
Any advise or comments?

Too much crap to hook up. If you really want to mess around with a stomp box, get a "Pod" by Line 6. It's everything in one unit,amp modeling and all kinds of effects. It's a piece of cake to use and easy to hook up.

Hi
You might consider a rack unit like the low end Lexicon or the low end TC Electronics efx units. (about $100 to $200 used)
Advantages: more efx and more control, and you can run true stereo, since the efx units are stereo processors.
Use the 2 outputs from the VP to the efx unit (L&R in) and take the efx unit L&R outs to your amps.
If the amps have an efx loop, you might want to hook up that way.
IMHO. Those stomp boxes are meant for electric guitar pickups, and not the high impedance of a steel guitar.
Hope this helps.
