Ok…… NOW it’s done :D

I managed to squeeze a Canvas tuner in there while simultaneously cleaning up the power cable runs. Had to flip the wireless receiver upside down to keep the power cable protected and use a shorty EB Flat cable to go out to the tuner. I don’t use the tuner in the Shure anyway, so it being upside down doesn’t matter to me. :)


Anyway….. final….

This is my final version (yeah, sure!), of my performance pedal board. Coming from a production, and 6str background, this is what iv ended up with. It's probably overkill, and old fashioned (I could easily replace with a digital multi "something ") , but I love the tones I'm getting.
The chain goes .. Peterson Tuner into Boughton -12db HPF, into xp booster, into Cali Comp, into DCX, into DG AO, into ISP N/suppressor, into 2Notes pre..the BBE &Thump are in fx loop of pre.
I (obviously) don't have all on at once. The top row are allways on, as is the ISP, and Thump. Lower rung , xp is for boost on 2Notes channel1, as is the AO for drive on that ch.
When using channel 2, I use ch3 as a drive.
The BBE is only used sparingly, when needed for a dead room/stage..
The whole thing gives me 2 clean tones , well 1 clean, and 1 clean with a beard! channel 1 (svt style), channel 2 (Marshal style)
Both of those with a dirty drive if needed.
It's quiet as a mouse, with lots of variety, I play in a 3 piece cover band.
