I use  a  line  6 spider  75  I've gigged it  for  2  years now  Its  very  good   ,however  perhaps  it  give  too much  choice  but  its  great  for  experimenting  with  sounds .For  live  use  I  choose only  4 presets   and  also  my  pedal  board  .The  only  problem  Ive  found  is it  was  possible  to  accidently  trigger  the  loop  function ,luckily  this  only happened in rehearsal  ,but  this  bug   seems  to  have  been  fixed  by  the  last  software update .I  have  no  plans  to  change  it  in the  near future .

Tele  with  humbuckers  great  tone  and  stays  in  tune   unlike  my  strat   which has  had  whammy  bar  problems  since  day  one .I  also like  my   Vintage VS 535  semi  with   wilkinson pickups  ,very  easy  to  play  and a  great    tone .Hated  the  les paul I  had   it  was  far  too  heavy  for  long  sets ,we  tend  to  do  about  3hrs  over  here  in Crete  (the  bazouki guys  do  4  or  5 sometimes)

I  would  advise  any one  considering  buying  effect  pedals  to  check  out  the  Joyo  range .I  have  been  using  the  vintage  overdrive    for  about  6 months  now and  its  great   .As  I  understand it  its  the  same  circuit  and  chip  as    the Ibanez Tube  screamer ,  but  it  only  costs about  30 pounds  to  the  Tube screamers 120 .On  the  strength  of  this  first  purchase  I've  just  bought  the  classic  chorus   from  them ,same  low  price  same  top  quality .
Check  the  range  its really  good .
I  dont  work  for  Joyo  and  I'm not connected  in  any way  just  incase  any  one  thinks  I am.

This   is  an  original  song  from   the  pen  of my  good  freind  Liz  Wheeldon   I  did  the  music ,Hope  you  like  it
