When I saw your pedal board I was thinking you could get a Flint and have space for something else :lol:
So I accidentally a Flint today, set it to John Mayer's settings and fell in love.

I reverse the effect order so that Trem is before Reverb.

Guess it depends if you want that choppy tone of trem after... I think fender have it before reverb in their amps don't they?
