I would love to know if you had my pedals how you would arrange their signal chain.

Fulltone OCD
Route 66 (Compressor/Overdrive in one)
Vox Wah
Keeley Modded Blues Driver
H20 (for who don't know its a Chorus/Echo pedal in one)
Boss Tremolo
Boss Tuner

Thanks
JJ

This would be my first iteration:
Guitar--->Boss Tuner--->Route 66--->Vox Wah--->Boss Tremolo--->
Blues Driver--->Fulltone OCD--->Amp Input

Effects Send--->H20--->Effects Return

Everything subject to tweaking. :D
 
Tuner, Wah -Comp/od-Blues Driver-OCD-Echo-Trem. I sometimes run the Echo after the Trem to get some subtle rubbery effects when the Trem is slow.
One thing to remember is that sometimes the True Bypass pedals click real loud when turning them off/on, so you might want to insert a volume pedal or tuner in between the clickers and buffered pedals. Saves a little embarrassment during quite passages.
 
You might also try running the Compressor after the Blues Driver. Keeley recommends this. You preserve the dynamics of the Blues Driver (ie. you play soft you get less crunch). Of course, this isn't as good for violin-like lead tones, but since you have an overdrive after the compressor (I assume the Route 66 overdive is post-compressor), then you can use the Route 66 overdrive for the lead tones. Try all the combinations and see what you like best!
 
tuner first, always..then wah...then I would run the compressor first personally, then the dirt boxes...but the compressor/dirt box placement would be much more personally preference i'd say.....echo/modulation in the FX loop (phaser out front for myself, but some like it in the loop)
