PYPB 38: When 'a few' just isn't enough...

great googly MOOGLY that is a durn fine board there sir! GAWJUS!
Thanks Dan! I'll be in touch. ;)
Oh baby that board is hot! That bluebeard is awesome, and well deserved too!
Dan really did a great job. I wish I could take a picture to show how well it looks in person though... It's stunning. And thank you!
Waterpilot is quietly building perfection. And clever posting it on the site I can't claim 33% on....I see how you did that.... ;)
HAHA! Awesome... Thanks man, I'm working on it! It's a struggle between want, need, cost, experimenting, blah, blah... The Timeline, for example, is something I've been lusting after but I just can't justify that big a cost (for what I need) right now. I'm irresponsible enough as it it. :D
 
Still happy with mine.. I do have plans for the future, but for now this probably is going to stay as it is. And it serves me well. :)

Current edition. The EBS will be leaving whenever someone buys it. The Digitech is surprisingly fun.

I also decided to build a peninsula for my thumpinator to rest on :hyper:

I have to build another cable so that the signal will go tuner -> JDI -> Thumpinator -> Amp.

That way the house/mixing board still gets the full range signal.


I'm also running into the problem now of powering this many pedals. Hate daisy chains and untidy cables, but another power brick is costly and I can't afford to have two things to plug in (sometimes outlets are a luxury item).
 
They actually blend well when the Character on the VT is btwn 2-3. Low gain as well. Not as good as a light OD would work though, like Dark Driving or something similar.
I use them at different times, not together. I find the Vt great for warm , mellow parts(again character at 3) and the rusty for aggresive Jesus Lizard sections. I thought about taking the vt off when i got the rusty but I like them both so much.
However, if I had to go with one. I think id keep the VT on. When you boost the character knob you get a sound similar(not the same though) to the Rusty. That charcter feature was a great idea, its one vesatile pedal

I plan on having a Rusty Box and BDDI on my board for the same reason of having diferent tones for different songs. I may try blending them to see how the RB sounds through the BBDI..
 
But with the same old pedals- at least I can get all of my pedals on this board. :bassist:

Path: Bass -> Barge FX Loop pedal -> Q-tron+ -> Morely Dual Bass Wah -> Carbon Copy -> BF-3 -> EP Booster -> amp

Barge Loop: BOD -> SparkleDrive -> BEF -> Red Ripper -> MuTron III+ -> tafm

Q-tron+ Loop: OC-2 -> SP mkII

A few minor changes, mostly adding the Dr. Scientist Tremolessence and The Elements on my board ... still managed to incorporate my Rat Tail into either of my projects ....

I've got a few things coming in ... Moog Phaser, Creepy Fingers Pink Elephant and Stomp Under Foot Dirty Rooster ... Only thing for sure that will make the board is the Pink Elephant. Kinda pondering if I even need a phaser.

What type of stuff do you do with the organizer?
 
that is a sechsy looper. NEAT.

and yesh. Waters board is DELICIOUS. but you are oh so very wrong about the Timeline. that thing is just INSANE. i have like three songs i couldn't do wthout it, or at least would not have come up with the main parts.
 
Is that a digital clock in the middle? never thought to do that but i may have to. totally pro! hate having to check my phone during sets. that's perfect!

I call it a digital chronometer to keep up with all of the cool pedal names. $5 at Wally World or so and I use it all the time.
