Hi Folks ! Great board you have here. Cost me a bunch of money because you all MADE me get a harp mic and a LW Harp Break. I am a guitarist but have been solely playing harp in our band and having a blast. Started doing it at open mic also with a JS-8 as backup. Was just playing through the mic into the PA but used an amp and the harp mic last time. Got the Harp Break yesterday which made this mediocre player sound like a mediocre player with a great sound :)

So now I am thinking of adding more FX. I have a Boss BC-3 that holds three pedals. Easy to carry around and fits Boss 3 pedals, one plug. Since I never use my Boss pedals (there's waaaaay better stuff for guitar out there), I thought that it might be fun (and convenient) to put 3 of these in the case and use them for harp (after the LW?).

Wanna help me choose? If you do, pick three and the order and I’ll try all combos you folks suggest. The band plays pop, R&B, oldies and the occasion blues piece (although I prefer fusion and prog which is why I don't bother with the guitar anymore).

Anyway, here’s the choices:

NS-2 Noise Suppressor (wish this worked on my sister-in-law)
AW-2 Auto Wah
OC-2 Octave
HR-2 Harmonist
PQ-4 Parametric Equalizer
EH-2 Enhancer
CS-3 Compressor
GE-7 Equalizer
RV-3 Reverb/Delay (does one or combo)
BF-2 Flanger
DD-5 Delay
CE-5 Chorus
ST-2 Power Stack
MT-2 Metal Zone
PW-2 Power Driver
OD-2 Turbo Overdrive
DS-1 Distortion
RC-1 Looper (no memory)
RC-3 Looper (w/memory)

Thanks in advance for any input

PQ-4, RV-3, and whatever pedal will give you the distorted sound you enjoyed on guitar while playing fusion/prog.

Thanks Iceman

PQ-4 did a nice job eliminating feedback and the RV-3 sounds great. Harp Break added just the right amount of grit so I used the RC-1 instead of a distortion pedal

Whole set up sounds great. Thinking of adding one of those Little Fatty or Mojo Pad pedals to round this out
