RATE MY SETUP

[Vasezgut]

Hi guys!

Wanted to share with you my new setup, a brand new Ibanes SR605E and a more complete pedalboard (at the begining I just used the BOSS GT-1B), added a tuner to allow me to use both external switches for effects on the Multi FX (also the Polytune is WAY more precise), and a DI just in case it comes handy. All is cabled through a pathbay to centralice all conections. There is no power supply since the AC adaptor from the BOSS GT1B can handle both the unit and the tuner. And finally some metallic cases for extra batteries, ear plugs, picks and my in-ears. Maybe in some years I´ll make something smaller like an HX Stopm with a Comp and Pre/DI, but I wanted to use what I already had. All of this is amplified with a Fender Rumble 500.

Overall I´m really happy for my first pedalboard and use it most of the time at church with some ambient effects or organ-like sounds.

Any coments are welcome!

As a user of Ibanez SR basses and Boss multi-FX units, I LOVE your setup.

This is my setup, with the addition of an Ibanez SR305

No shame in your game there my friends. All solid choices.

Didn’t read. Looks like your board had 2 tins of altoids and a sunglasses case?

Anything that works for your needs is always a 10 out of 10...

However, you own an Ibanez bass, so now it goes to "11". Congratulations, you've exceeded the rating system

Great bass, great pedal and a great work horse amp.
I use a Boss GX-10 because it has both guitar and bass effects and preamps. But the Boss you have is an excellent all in one bass players pedal.

Yes haha
The altoids case are for batteries, picks and stuff like that, and the sunglasses case are for the in-ears, couldn´t find anything better but it gets the job done

Very nice setup. I dig that RockBoard Mod1. Very cool!

Another boss gx-10 user here with my 2 cents. If it sounds good it is good. As long as you can dial in the tones you are looking for and are happy with your setup that's all that really matters. Love those SRs just wish they were wider at the nut. Cheers!

OK I LOVE the use of a sunglasses case and Altoid box on the pedal board! I am always losing earplugs, 9v batteries, headphone adapters, picks, etc. And even if they are in my guitar case or pedal board box, they are often not accessible from where I am set up by the time I need them. I am definitely going to do this, Thank you! I even have a glasses case that says BOSS. (the same name is also an eyeglass designer)

Oh yeah, the gear is cool too

The SR is beautiful. If the pedals all interface well together then you have a winning combination. If you’re adverse to spending a lot of money don’t go down the pedal rabbit hole and buy everything like I have. I’ve been through almost all of them for bass and every time I refigure my signal chain I take more away. I went from blending preamps and eqs to pretty much either 1 or 2 pedals at a time. I still alternate but I know I have more stuff than I need.
