I'd never put the Fuzz before the 105q. That gives it a synthy effect that loses all the distortion when the wah is engaged and that's not what I want. I want the Timmy C effect, not the Cliff Burton one. Might be what some people want, but swaping those 2 around gives such different results that it's not a matter of what sounds better but what result suits you best. It's also so easy to spot the difference it's really worth to try and pick by yourself, you'd have to be deaf not to have a favourite...
And I'd never use the compressor after all those effects either. I used to prefer it after the wah, then I decided I preferred it before. Not a big difference. But to me it definitely makes it all sound worse after chorus or fuzz. Not to mention that it maximizes any noise that goes into it, so a fuzz before it's pretty much the worse you could do regarding noise in the signal...
Ultimately, try it all and chose with your own ears! Most of it is pretty easy to decide once you hear it.[/quote]
Apart from your minimising the signal going into your fuzz and you lose a lot of touch response from a fuzz, it is all personaly preference at the end of the day I love dirt pedals and just have transparent limting from a decent rack compressor.
Personally on the wah if it was me I'd have dist before and after it or stick it in a wobo loop so youi can reverse it and do both, then you get best of both worlds.
