how to connect my guitar rig?

hi
I have just recently purchased a guitar, amp and pedals off the internet, but only have one lead…..whats the best to use to connect all my pedals?
My set up is as follows:
Fender Telecaster Deluxe (2007)
Boss TU-2 Tuner
Boss DD-3 Digital Delay
Ibanez Tubescreamer TS808
Boss DS-1 Distortion
Fender Deville Amp

I only have a guitar lead, what do i need to connect my pedals to one another? Also can anyone recommend any other pedals that give an Oasis/Strokes/Arctic Monkeys/Fratellis sound???

You obviously have a respectable rig, so you should have good-quality cables to make sure your signal is clear. Here is my humble suggestion:

From your guitar to your tuner (probably the 21ft version):

In between your tuner, delay, tubescreamer and distortion (you just cut the cable to length and pop the input jack on the ends…easy and GREAT cables):

And then from your distortion to your Deville use another one of those Monsters, maybe a shorter one just to go to the amp though….or I guess you could just use your original cable, but i don’t know if it is as nice as these above…therefore may not promote as clean of a signal. Great question and I hope I have helped.

as for other pedals…I think you should check out the Holy Grail Reverb pedal…also, maybe I’m way off, but didn’t Noel (Oasis) use a Big Muff pedal quite a little bit?…maybe check one of those out.

Good Luck


which guitar pedal should i get?

does anyone have any suggestions for a guitar pedal that would give me an ‘Oasis’ type sound? Im currently just using a roland microcube and just cant get the right sound out of it. It needs to be around £35 , i was thinking about getting the cool cat fuzz but not sure i would get the sound i’m looking for out of it. I know there are hundreds of distortion/overdrive pedals out there but its getting tedious checking them all out on youtube! any help would be great

My friend to get the oasis sound you need these amp settings: Bass low, treble about mid, mids high, gain as high as i can go!!!! As for pedals the boss overdrive and sustain/compressor are really effective and reliable, they may be out of your price range but check ebay and you might luck onto a bargain.

Oasis – Live Forever Solo (Overdrive vs Distortion)
