Chorus
Overdrive

I think everything works except compressors.

I think Reverb and Delay are most common. That's all I use but some guys like chorus and yes overdrive for blues and rock tunes.

For the pure sound of steel, delay and reverb pedals. If you get into rock, classic rock, etc, you may want to get into other pedals.
