I've got a deluxe memory man, a crybaby wah,a kendrick buffalo fuzz and a fender tube reverb reissue that I gig with regularly like this:Tele-tuner-delay-fuzz-wah-reverb-marshall.It never seems quite right.I know that the delay should come after the dist.,but when I hook it up that way the delay causes a volume drop when I kick it on.Anyway advice of any kind is welcome including any great new multi effects unit's that could update this spaghetti mestern of chord's and headache's.Maybe a compression device would help keep level's consistent?I like effects as occasional ear candy and not for my all the time tone,and am almost ready to ditch them as a tone sucking wasteland,but when they work right they're interesting and inspiring.Help me get it right-please!-Thanks--Kenny

If your delay drops volume, it is time to have it replaced or repaired. The reissue Fender Reverb may be actually a strength as its output volume could actually be used as a signal booster for the Marshall amp.

Another thought is to check your tuner specs to make sure your tele output is buffered before hitting that memory-man. A MXR micro-amp or something similar can help preserve the tele-tone from some of these medium input impedance pedals that may suck the life outta your guitar's tone.
