Chunk's Master Plan - Pedalboard

Damn, I'm just coming off as an ******* recently, I guess.

The Mammoth (and I'd imagine the Supercollider as well) like passive basses. Fuzzes like this are meant to interact directly with your pickups, but you inhibit that relationship when you put buffered pedals (i.e. Boss and Digitech) between them. This will potentially drastically change the sound.
 
I can't say how each pedal will react in different signal chains, so I suggest the age-old practice of getting drunk, flailing arms, and switchin' 'em around until you find the best order for you. Some people (think they) like buffers before fuzz (i.e. DanielTulip). Some fuzzes don't react much differently either way. Try it out and see what you prefer. Just wanted to give ya a heads-up. ;)
 
hey guys.....just wanted to say i got everything working and it sounds great! surprisingly i dont have much tone loss at all. the only gripe i ever had was.....cutting cables sucks!!! besides that it was fun and a good experience. i will post a photo soon!
