Hello Everyone,
Does anyone use any effect pedals with their Ovations and if so which ones and why?
Thanks Paul

I use the Digitech RPx400.
It has a lot of modeling options, p/u modeling, 1/4" and XLR i/o, USB, built in drum machine for practicing. Even set on bypass it acts as a DI box when using the XLR outs.

With the OP40 notch filter I can get some screaming distortion out of my 1867 when I need it.
THAT makes peoples eyes bug out. :eek:

Chorus, reverb.... but most of the effects I would use with an acoustic are built into my acoustic amp.

I use an ART "Acoustic" pedal (no longer made).
Has numerous "presets" that use different effects that are tailored specifically for acoustic guitar (reverb, chorus, delay, flange, doubling). I primarily use it it to add just a touch of "Detuned Chorus" to my live sound. It also doubles as a DI box, so I can run my two guitars into a Boss A/B switch - to a Boss TU2 tuner - to the ART pedal and from there I can run a long XLR cable to my PA. I'd like to a bit more "flexibility" than this thing provides, and could probably do better with a few individual pedals, but this thing is compact, fairly rugged, and for the most part has been dependable . . .

i have a load of effects but most sound bad with acoustic sound. i sometimes use my whammy pedal to ad harmonies, but the nicest effect i've found to use with my O is my Boss PH-3 phaser. sounds really whooooooooooshy and creamy. lovely stuff
