my advice: get rid of most of the pedals. The sound is in your fingers. And the amp is an instrument (at least a good tube amp is).
Unless you're having to try and cover/copy a lot of different player's sounds, find a couple tones/effects you like and toss the rest. I use a good chorus (sometimes), either a Fulltone overdrive or Keeley compressor (though rarely the compressor on guitar), and an old Vox wah.
Toys get in the way of the tone and the feel.
I also wouldn't mod the amp until you know what you want out of it...and really get a feel for what it truly sounds like.
