Post Your Pedal Board XII - Dirty Dozen

Status
Not open for further replies.
Well, finally finished the basic "board" part last night (still have to run the power, add the front bindings to the tiers, finish painting, etc.) so I wanted to try it out this morning as far as using it on the floor and how it feels. Tossed a bunch of pedals on it and it is not bad at all! The rear tier is only 4.75" off the ground.

Figured I snap a couple of pictures while I was at it. Note that this is NOT the way the pedals will be laid out (most of them aren't even straight in the pics), just a bunch of random pedals tossed on to check it out.

good god man! what does it sound like when all those pedals are on at once :hiding:
 
Rusty-
Nice work so far! Is that an HBE Mimic on the left? If so, how do you like it? I was forced to sell mine because there wasn't enough headroom for bass and it distorted the repeats. Mine was Mach II, BTW... It killed on guitar, though.

How about your Psilocybe? I'd pick one up if I weren't expecting a Halophaze sometime in the next decade.

That is a Mimic, and it's also a Mock II. Same as with you, I like it on guitar but it's lacking in headroom on bass. I do like it in combination with a few other pedals to create noise though, that's why I haven't gotten rid of it. It won't be on the board when it's finished though....Maybe on a slave board but not this main one. I had an SMMw/H until this morning (stolen out of my car) and will have another for the board soon.

The Psilocybe I really like though.

Rusty... Are you just going for the most pedals on a board, or do you actually use all of those???

I thought mine was bad with three dirt pedals, two synths and some other effects...

I love dirt pedals, in case you couldn't tell, and several of those will be on the board when it's done. The Hjärt Müller will be for sure, as will two Polish Loves. The Hjärt Müller is warm, full and has a lot of character while the PL is aggressive and in-your-face. I keep one in normal mode and one in boost mode and often play one through the other. The HM-2 will be on, though I'm not sure about the Guttermouth modded TS9.

Of the three envelope filters in the picture, only one or two of them will be on the board. Like I said, it was just a random selection this morning. The Subdecay Noisebox WILL be on the board, as will a Boss LS-2 and a new SMMw/H when I get it.

The hell if I know, and I'll be damned if I want to find out!

:)
 
What's the custom BJFE pedal? All I can make out is a Bias knob. OH WAIT there are two custom BJFEs, 3 if you count the fancy 3BOD paintjob. I speak of the large one.

EDIT: some variation of this it seems:

TaySte, your board is pretty durn clean for having 200 feet of cabling. Very nice. :D
