If you have to choose between the wah and the octave pedals, I'd go with the wah hands down, it's a very important and fun effect, while the octave might be great too it can only be used now and then compared to the wah.
As for other pedals I'd go for delay, reverb and chorus, but that's my choice. If you get a wah I also recommend a cry baby, though VOX sounds pretty good too. As for the other pedals, well, they aren't cheap if you choose brands such as BOSS or even Digitech, they sound good and are built like tanks. As has been mentioned, Behringer makes more affordable pedals, some of which sound very good but they are not as durable (but they cost much less!) -------------------- Guitars:

for the octave pedal, check out the electro harmonix micro pod, it can make your guitar go from sounding like a bass to a super high frequency instrument, very cool pedal

Electro Harmonix makes one of the best octaver processors, so you should definitely check their site. It has some nice video review as well.
As for wah, Crybaby is a standard in the industry so you won't make a mistake if you buy one. Morley wah can be also interesting if you find it. You can check out wiki article about wah 535q review from the forum that I translated there. Another nice pedal would be delay if you don't have one. You can check out my gear tutorial about Boss DD20 that is about to go live in 5-10 days, and until then, check out review of it here. Also some pedals choice depends on the amp as well. What amp do you have? This post has been edited by Ivan Milenkovic: Aug 27 2008, 07:09 PM -------------------- - Ivan's Video Chat Lesson Notes HERE

The only pedal that I am still using from tiem to time is my Cry Baby, and as the others said before, you can't really go wrong with that one. An option would be the Morley Wahs, they have the advantage of not using regular pots that might wear out after some time, but they sound different of course. As usual the best would be to go to a shop and try different models to see what you like best.
About other pedals, well, the only other one I ever used is my Tube Screamer, back when I was still using my Marshall, but aside from this I don't really like pedals, I prefer a good multi effect in my rack, like this I don't have to start dancing when I want to change to a different sound, I just have to step on my Midimate once and get the sound that I want immediately, I don't have to activate / deactivate tons of pedals for this. -------------------- Guitars: various Gibson Les Pauls / Gibson J 45
