Since I get asked all the time to assist in stacking and settings for BJF pedals, I thought it would be interesting to start a thread and gather everyone's settings and stacks.

This is how I would like to organize it. Please list the pedal, followed by the knob settings. If you have a title for the tone created please share it.

If you have found a recognizable tone please go ahead and list it. These can be titled by the artist they resemble or the album, etc.

lastly, please list your stacks in order and the settings for each pedal.

Donner has a significant amount of info gathered from old threads and such so I will see if I can get him to share that here.

PGC (Pale Green Comp)
LRT (Little Red Trebler)
MGMV (Mighty Green Mini Vibe)
PPF (Pink Purple Fuzz)
CAF (Candy Apple Fuzz)
EGDM (Emerald Green Distortion Machine)
DRD( Dyna Red Distortion)
RRB (Red Rooster Booster)
LGW(Little Green Wonder)
HB (Honey Bee)
PPP (Purple Plum Phaser)
SYT (Saffron Yellow Tremelo)
BBOD (Baby Blue Overdrive)
BPB (Baby Pink Booster)
SBEQ (Sea Blue EQ)

Hi
Here's one I used recently

Strat into SBEQ: V 12,B 9, T 11 ( used for light mid boost) into RRB G 9oc into HB V 11oc,N 1oc, D 11oc ( used for light overdrive to midrangy leads) into DRD V 12, T 10oc, D 11 ( used for distortion sounds
from dynamic to compressed) into De Luxe Reverb with Greenback.

All pedals can be used alone or combined

Key to setting levels volumes slightly higher than bypass for the boosters and about unity for the HB and DRD.

Nature on HB is set around center to give brightest sound and not so mauch bass.

Treble on DRD needs adjustment with volume as the Deluxe changes amount of treble with volume.
Dist on DRD is set so that distortion can be set like this play with fingers lightly and there is only shimmer control further depth of distortion with pick.

Both overdrive sound and distortion sound can be made compressed by engaging the boosters and highest compression with all pedals on at ones that's compression of distortion.
As usual the last pedal used sets main sound


Amp used has quite a bit of compression by itself the hotter it gets and the louder it is played. and certainly when boosters are engaged.

I thought I share this one as it is somewhat unusal

Here's a neat one I found yesterday.

52 ReissueTele w/ Hamel pickups (Alnico 3's-not hot) into my Tophat Club Royale 2X12 (EL84 Vox like circut) w/ Celestion Blue and Heritage G12H30.

The amp set for mild breakup...

EGDM: Vol-10, Voice-above 9, Dist-above 9 (O' Clock)>
PPF: Vol-10, Nature-above 8, Fuzz-10>
SBEQ: Vol-10, Bass-11, Treble-1

I just tried this one and got great results, but had to roll off a little bass to taste on the SBEQ. The rest were perfect, thanks for the stack!

Here's one I've been using for greasy, gritty, Hendrix-like rhythm sounds between Tele & AC30, all are 'o clock' positions...

PCG: Vol 11, Body 8, Comp 10
PPF: Vol 12 Nature 8 Fuzz 8-9
SBEQ: Vol 11 Bass 10 Treble 1-2

Putting wah before this stack works very well indeed.

I've done a little stacking with Bjorn's pedals:
