Show your Pedaltrain juniors!!!

Some nice boards here. I'm going to be selling off my PT-2 here pretty soon, along with several of my current effects. as I'm going a different direction (i.e. Better pedals over more pedals, only what I constantly use). I was going to go PT-Jr, but me thinks that's still going to be too large and only support my GAS habit of buying more...:atoz:
 
Here we go!
Stepping down from a PT-2 to a cleaner, smaller PT JR board...

BTW, that white thing on the underside is a power switch - - a pretty cool add since the Dunlop Brick doesn't have a power switch on it. Using the switch (just over $3 at Home Depot), I can turn the whole board on or off.

Very sweet so far. The Purolator man came today and NO ONE WAS HOME!!!! i could have cried. But my lovely wife is going to pick up my new PT Jr in the morning from post office. Will post pics of course, once I throw some pedals on.
 
Very nice board! Not to hijack my own thread, but tell me what you think of the Discobob and the EXH phaser. This are two pedals that i have been seriously considering. I had an MXR Phase90 and a Mini Q tron but the Q tron had issues with the volume spike and its large footprint and the MXR was great but not true bypass.

please tell me how you rate those two. is the Discobob worth the $229 I would have to spend for one in Canada? Does the Small Stone work well for bass? Any volume drop?

The Zoom Ultra Fuzz has been replaced by a Supercollider since I took these pics (which means I should probably take some new pics...), but you get the jist:

They're both awesome...besides the Deep Impact, they've been the longest mainstays on my board!

The Small Stone is deep, thick and chewy...no volume drop. I keep the Color switch off with clean bass (there's just too much low-end), but I flip the switch on when I use it with fuzz or the Deep Impact for huge, sweeping, spacey bravura! :D

In my current band, I definitely step on DiscoBOB the most. It brings the funk. It's really easy to setup...the Sensitivity knob is perfect and the key to BOB's magic. Also since it's not a crazy-wet filter, it cuts through the mix and sounds just like my bass...only funkier. I also got a incredible deal on mine, but if this one got lost, I'd definitely pony up and get another one (although I'd probably be scouring eBay at the current new prices :eek:).

I searched around a bit and found some slightly better deals on a new one: Invalid Link Removed, G Guitars
 
Thanks for the info and price links. I was an avid MXR Phase90 user but sold mine which I regret. The Small Stone is actually a little cheaper an has true bypass so I have been itching to try one out. I will also likely wait for a deal on the Emma as its pretty pricy.

I should have mentioned that I tried a Phase 90 the same time I tried out the Small Stone. The Phase 90 was cool, but the Small Stone was darker, thicker, and chewier.
