Post Your Pedal Board XII - Dirty Dozen

Hasn't the Big Muff been around a lot longer than the Tonebender? I could be wrong.:confused:

Also, the LPB doesn't cut mids.... if anything, it rolls off an imperceptible amount of treble at higher gain settings.
Well, based on my two minutes of research (:D) I have found that the Tonebender was invented in 1965, and the BMP in 1971. As for the LPB, I was just repeating what I have read here on TB.
 
There is really not much difference between the Tonebender and the Pi. In the BMP, the first gain stage has a pair of diodes in a feedback loop, while the tonebender does not. This results in greater bass response when the sustain is dialed higher. Great mod for the big muff pi btw.
While the Pi was not on the market until 71, it was built off of the Axis fuzz which Mike Matthews created much earlier.
 
the BBM has rendered the Tonebender useless imho. but a year ago when I was shopping for a huge there was nothing better ;)

as for the GK, it is a great distortion. I prefer it a lot to the Fulltone for example. however it's just way too huge, but I dont have the time to go find something smaller with the same tone and low-end before the gigs start so I'll just keep it for a while. maybe the bogdan pedal could replace it? dunno.

They dont' get any smaller (or better sounding to me) than the Hyperpak. Try one if you get the chance.
 
Here's my meager lil' board -

The green Ibanez is an SD-9 (not a TS).
 
Here's an updated version of the board, with the help of TaySte I've fit everything on and kept all the pedals upright. I'm getting some George L's soon hopefully and when I get a tuner it'll either be going under the expression pedal (I'll move the expression pedal off the board a bit) or in the place of the 442 (the 442 will go under the expression pedal instead).

EHX LPB-1 (OMGTOMORROW)

Daniel has been quietly amassing pedals for the last few months and will soon have a PB to rival TaySte or Rusty (Lunchbox be damned). With this new board he plans on laying out the bones of his many enemies to crush under the weight of his mighty tone (and bulky pedal board).

After which he'll do a Tiger Woods style fist pump.

Thanks for the LOL. Its not the size but how you use it BTW :p ;) :ninja:
