Post Your Pedalboard - Part I

[xan]

here's my humble collection:

all i got for a board is a pedaltrain jr, which won't fit all the pedals i have. don't think i'll wanna bring all of them with me since i barely get to use them and they'll weigh a lot, most of the time, i don't bring them along at all, since i haven't found a way to fit the sound into the church music i'm playing. a looper is on it's way, a digitech jamman. i'm really looking forward to it.

looks good mate, keep up the good work.

What is that red boss pedal???

 

[Phyrexian]

That's a PSM-5 Power supply & master switch. It's been discontinued since it's completely redundant thanks to the TU-2, LS-2 or NS-2 daisy chain powering options...

That one's a PSM-5 - "Power Supply & Master Switch".

It was made back in the day when the Boss pedalboards lacked power supply pedals. It can power other pedals the same way an NS-2 or LS-2 can. It also has an effects loop, with the footswitch acting as a means of bypassing the loop.

the LS-2 is the dramatically improved descendant of the PSM-5.

You should run the "guitar'd" signal out of the UniBass' second output and put it through the blues driver. That would sound killer

My board is currently in a state of disarray:
[Invalid or Expired Link Removed]
Bass > Danelectro Surf & Turf Compressor > Arion Bass EQ > Boss ODB-3 > EHX Big Muff Pi > (MXR vintage phase 90) > Digitech Digiverb

I've given the Morley chorus to a guitarist friend. A CEB-3 replacement is on its way. I've traded the Bassballs for a DOD Vibrothang. If I miss the Bassballs (which I'm sure I will!), I'll buy a nano. The Russian one was just too darn big and heavy (almost Muff sized). I've added a ODB-3, which I have to say is amazing. The sound I get with my Jazz full on and with this thing in light overdrive... is amazing. The Phase 90 is here, but needs a battery clip.

Now, the future of my board... I definately want to get less space consuming cables, first off. A George L's cable kit is enough for 5 cables, right? So I'd need two. The board itself, will be built my me. I'm going to route cables and power cables underneath the board surface. The current one is just a piece of wood. I'm going to replace the danelectro compressor with a Punch Factory. The dano does it's job, making me sound punchier and better at less volume, but I know there are better options.

So how does a finished (well... not really) pedalboard/chain of:

Aphex Punch Factory > Arion Bass EQ > Boss ODB-3 > EHX Big Muff Pi > MXR Phase 90 > Boss CEB-3 > DOD Vibrothang > Digitech Digiverb

look? It seems pretty cool, and I'm totally sure I can get all 8 onto the 12x20 board I'm planning. The temporary one is the same size, in case you're wondering.

This is why I always recommend the Little Big Muff! You definitely need to try one; if you like it, it would definitely free up some space on your board!

yea, i'll definitely try that, and while i'm at it, i'll hook up the chorus to it as well. thanks!!

The next one that shows up on the Classifieds here will probably end up mine

A George L's cable kit is enough for 5 cables, right?

Yep. 5 pairs of plugs (10).

 

[LE_Gui]

I modded it

The big knob is a delay-time-set knob that makes my Small Clone into a Flanger, Chorus or pitch vibrato

The smaller knob is a depth knob (replaced the depth switch)

The depth switch is now a speed switch to switch between two speeds

The small switch on top filters out the clean signal thus creating a vibrato

One small switch on the back transforms the pedal into a tremolo

Oh, and the LED blinks with the speed the speed knob is set

I want the same pedal !

I only have a few pedals: Sans Amp DI, Fender PT-100 Tuner, and a Zoom 506II Multi. I couldn't find anything premade that fit my needs that wasn't waaaaay too expensive for what you get. I was going to cover a piece of plywood with some cabinet-type carpet as an alternative. While I was cruising the aisles of Wal-Mart looking for self-adhesive velcro for this little project, I came across a red poly cutting board that was just the right size. It was $6.49 for a two pack. The bigger red one is my pedal board, the smaller yellow one is in the kitchen for slicing carrots. Go ahead and laugh, but the whole thing cost me $10 and is virtually indestructible. I power all three with 1-SPOT.

That's actually a great idea, I might have to try something like that myself...

+1. Very inventive indeed.

+1 here too. Though it's funny you should mention carrots......

Very organized! One thing that I've wondered about the J&H is: what do those two switches on either side of the logo do????

the one on the left is a bass boost for the jeckyll side (overdrive). on the hyde side (distortion) is a sharp/blunt switch. it switches from a more compressed distortion to a brighter edgier distortion.

the overdrive is much more usable than the distortion. i usually just crank the drive down on the distortion side and use it as a second more crunchy overdrive. overall the pedal is a very usable pedal.

I'm new to this forum so first let me say hello.
In my skb 8 board I have my bass > seamoon funk machine > chunk 00funk > digitech bass distortion w/ clean signal blend > hyper phase > dan echo > line six with a jet phase setting (the only setting I use that pedal for)> output...the pedalboard also has a loop which I use for a boss ME6-B.. the output goes to a boomerang then to a Mo' Bass.. I still want an original AP-7 jet phase and a mutron octave divider and an old Juggernaut !
Great killer sounds for funk and r&b gigs but now I'm playing in church it's not getting used much at all

here's mine, omnifex chorus is going to be replaced
