My Ultimate Pedal Board

Sign in to disble this ad
This is My Ultimate Pedal Board:

I might change the octaver if I ever want to afford it!

The Ibanez is used as a auto Wah:

I might also use my B2 as a synth pedal added on.... But not really sure.

It is a Stagg Pedal case!

Once you've spent a little time on this board, you'll probably rethink.

If you are thing about changing your octaver, then this would be your penultimate pedal board.

If you think Arion is good, you should spend several hours at GC in the effects department.

My point is that I've Played with lots of other effects, but the only ones I use are those.......

As to Arion, the relationship between cost and product is great.

Yes I suppose one could use Ibanez or Roland(Boss), but actually after you crank the volume quite high on a gig, I'm not sure you can hear the difference as much as playing quietly ina practis room.

Having said that, I might change slowly to Boss or EBS... Probably EBS to support the European economy!

Well if it works for you, then theres no sense anyone telling you to go and get something else. You're happy with it, so I dont see a problem

Glad that you've found something that works! Don't listen to those hecklers! They're just jealous that you solved most of your GAS and they haven't.
That being said, I'd be careful in here...
GAS is ridiculously contagious in here...
I've spent more on effects than my rig and basses combined!

The auto wah on that ibanez is awesome! The switch that changes modes broke off on that setting and I don't even care!

I'm glad someone else likes it! Bought it originally for the Synth part, but as you say the Auto Wah is much better than others. it has the warm bass under current that other don't have!

I have the Arion MOC-1 Octave and the Boss OC-2, and while the construction of the Boss is far superior to the Arion, the Arion is a clone and sonically they are essentially the same (though the Arion's solo'd -1oct doesn't seem to share the OC-2's perceived volume drop) . That's not my ideal pedalboard by any means, but I also wouldn't discredit the Arion stuff right away.

Cheers!

Also Id like to point out as I am aware Arion were the first to offer a stage tuner, even before boss. And mine is quite old I had it when I combined it with my pue5b.

Just the other day I found the first (or close to first) pedal that I ever bought stuffed away in my closet:



It really sounds pretty decent and still works after years of sitting in my closet.

Perhaps we should start a Arion Pedals appreciation club!

BTW do they have a website?

Yeah bad labeling.
The knobs should read 'clean vol' 'effect vol' 'tone' 'dist'
