- Volume. I have owned several volume pedals since the '70s. My first was a Morley with the photo-sensor system, and though cumbersome as hell and AC-powered, it was great.
- Distortion/Fuzz/Overdrive. This could quickly become overly complicated ... but I like distortion, and nowadays we delineate between "fuzz," "overdrive," and "distortion," so I will cave and do it as well.
- Compression. I use the humble and sometimes maligned Boss CS-3 compressor pedal and have for ages. I played with two guitarists in the '80s who turned me on to the advantages of the compressor pedal: Nick Kirgo (in a band I was in called BLOC) and Bill Frisell (when we played together with Julius Hemphill).
- Delay/Echo. The inimitable Electro-Harmonix 16 Second Digital Delay on Cline's board. I used to always use an Echoplex for delay until it became too unwieldy—and back in the late '80s people actually ridiculed me for using it along with "stompboxes" instead of rack units and MIDI controllers.
Most boutique amps just won’t work for Nels Cline––too glassy, too snarly and strident. And while he can get around on just about anything, he’d still prefer any number of small-batch, hand-wired amps in place of his dreaded nemesis, the Silverface Twin Reverb.
