I found this guy on ebay that makes these amazing a/b pedals with a tuner/mute out. It rocks!! 2 inputs, one amp out and one tuner/mute out. True bypass, small foot print and best of all, under $50. Actually shipped and taxes turns out to be $50.95.

+1 on the GH plugs. I finally figured out the order in which I was going to setup my pedalboard. Once I knew for sure, I decided to make my own cables. I used Canare GS-6 cable and GH plugs. Yes, a little more bulky than George L's or Lava Cables but they are built solid...and not just cause...

When I do outdoor events, I tend to lean more toward my Korg DTR-1000. I use an a/b pedal so I can have true silent tuning. I had a Planet Waves Chromatic and sold it for the Pitchblack. It does a lot better than the PW in the sunlight. I am not a big fan of having my gear in direct...

I didn't see it mention...and probably for good reason. But I've been using Bag End cabs for a long time now. The thing I love about them is that no matter what style I choose or have to play, they amplify that sound just the way it should sound like. Slapping, muting, plucking...literally...

I've tried many tuners because I like to tune my 6 string down to a low A and sometimes a low G. And there have only been 4 tuners that will allow me to tune that low and do it without failing. 1) Planetwaves Chromatic...approx. $75. Great tuner but if you incorporate it in you signal chain...

I have both pedals on my board. No matter what I decide to do, whether I reconfigure my board, sell my current pedal and buy new ones, the BDDI and the VT will always be on my board. I consider them my 'bread & butta' because they both are extremely versatile. I can dial in the BDDI for one tone...

I don't have the PT-2 but I do have the PT-1, which is only 2" smaller than the PT-2, and I have the PT Mini. I decided to can the PS-45 because 1) the PS-45 was way too heavy even without any pedals in it compared to the PT-1. 2) I figured I would gain more real estate by mounting the p/s under...

So here's the deal: I want to put together a board specifically for fretless. I play anything from jazz to latin jazz to funk to blues to raggae to bluegrass. I love the "Jaco" tone but that is not exactly what I'm looking for. I don't want a really hifi fretless tone all the time and I don't...

I have both and they are the two most used pedals on my board. The BDDI gives me a clean tone with the instant ability of adding mild dirt when I need it. It is my almost always on pedal...on about 70% of the time. I run my Ken Smith basses through it. The VT is another pedal is it is almost...

What gear do you currently have? Before I got sucked in to the pedal thing, I played my Ken Smith straight to my SWR Redhead and got a really clean, HiFi sound. If not exactly, almost what gospel bassist look for in tone and sound. I'm sure others here might have better ideas than I. But...

Homemade A/B> A) Planetwaves Tuner B) MXR DynaComp>Boss OC-2>Boss SYB-3>Dunlop Crybaby Bass 105Q>VT Bass>BDDI>Aguilar DB-728>Bag End 4x10. I really like the VT Bass. Give me everything I need and then some. I have a friend that bought a VT Bass to gut it and figure out what he could mod on...

I'd jump on it if my wife wasn't so jealous!

I had the same problem until I bought the Planet Waves tuner. One word...freakinrocks!

I really liked the PlanetWaves kit. Very quick and easy to assemble. At that time, I ended up buying PlanetWaves bulk cable by the foot and additional plugs to wire my boards(ended up being cheaper since my buddy is the manager of accessories at GC). It allowed me to make cables at the lengths I...

A buddy of mine at church (sound tech...and does an awesome job!!) Showed me the difference between the cheapest and some of the higher end cables. I learned that a 20 ga. compared to an 18 ga. aint much of a difference in size, thickness, etc., etc. BUT, what I did find is the way the cable is...
