Sure. Fender Highway Phaser, DigiTech Ventura (vibe/rotary), and NoiseKickFX Almond Blossom Envelope Filter.
+1 on the Wilde Bill Lawrence. The LS45 gives you a great twin rail with wiring options.
Boss AD-10. I moved up from the Baggs Venue DI. Amazing gear.

Wilde Bill Lawrence pickups. Twin blade is silent, and a great option.

I have two pedals listed on Reverb that would meet your needs. The Source Audio Collider (delay-reverb) and the SpiralFX Yellow Overdrive. All you need beyond that is a decent floor tuner. I'm in...
With a decent set up they are a fair value for the money. I had the 335 style for a while.
Ground issue likely, and most likely the Eastwood. Compare on a different amp with no known issues. If buzzing continues, it's tech time to chase the ground.
That Baggs Venue was my secret sauce, especially for my Rigel A. That said, the AD-10 is an amazing upgrade, starting with the two instrument input. Each can be programmed with lots of presets;...
I have an older Loudbox, and it does amplify the K&K inside my MD-515 nicely. That said, IMO piezos will always be well served by sculpting the sound with a good preamp and EQ. I used to love my old...
Boss AD-10. Had the Baggs Venue; thus is a much better piece of gear.
Congrats on a great purchase. The 1970's M-I-J mandolins can be a widely varying bunch, but I think Ibanez (and for that matter the Aria Pro II) often put out well-produced, great sounding...
Boulder Alpine gig bag or a Travelite foam case. Own both of them and both are good but different, solutions.
Caught John as part of the Desert Rose Band at Rams Head in Annapolis just over 10 years ago. Incredible musician, no matter what is in his hands.
OK, so let me ask how many of us generally turn to Rolling Stone for bluegrass coverage? Or forward on pieces covering bluegrass/newgrass/any grass from it? For me, that's a never. Would I expect to...
Great piece in RS about the loss of Bobby and Jesse.

I've had good experience with the Travelite. Sold one with a mando, so picked up another one to have "just because."
Stunned to hear this. Don't forget his work with whistles as well. RIP Bill.
For those interested, also not far from DC in Loudoun County is Melodee Music. They have a wall of new mandolins that include The Loar, Kentucky, Eastman, Troublesome Creek, Rose (local builder!),...
Charlie, I'd take the JBL over the Bose no question. Bose is fine; IMO JBL is better sounding at less dollars.
Rockville makes decent stands that will hold the weight no worries.
Basic analog...
Is less money an option? The Eastman El Rey covers a lot of great tones. Also, Jonathan Mann offers options at that price point. A used Rigel is great is a piezoelectric pickup works for your friend.
Since the thread has been revived, let's update, it. MXR has released the MXR M306. This poly-octave offers two octaves up and down, plus fuzz, plus modulation. I'm still tempted.
Have you looked at the Wilde Bill L45S? Bill Lawrence's wife and daughter are keeping his legacy alive. IIRC, I had one put in the Kentucky. The original install messed up the wiring harness, but the...
Cables are the critical connections in a signal chain. I've found that Whirlwind Leader cables are incredibly well built, and are supported by a lifetime warranty. Still have my first one some 20+...
