??? typo? I can't (or frankly would rather not) envision Mike in drag... or maybe it would be fun!
Um..., no. A) I'm not into that-not that it's a bad thing-'cos,(2), I'd look like :poop:. And (III), I've no idea how that would be attributed to me.

I wasn’t even talking about crazy rigs (tho I have seen them!) i don’t find, say, 8-12 pedals unreasonable (although few make good use of them). And you can put a lot into small space.

when I bought my board, we had plenty of stage room. We don’t even have a stage at the nee church (we meet in a small event center), just floor. We can take whatever room we need, but that’s all we tend to use. I could get by without it but would rather not. Thankfully, I don’t have to.

An overly large pedal-board and a way too large/loud amp. One is bad, the combination is unacceptable.

Weird. I went back trying to figger out how that wound up under my name. I was watching NFL on the other side o' the house at the time. Nowhere near my PC. :wacky:
 
My current pedalboard (Pedaltrain Classic 2 with a hard case):

MXR OD hasn't been dual-locked in yet.
Do I need two chorus pedals? Maybe not, but they sound good stacked when the other is in a flanger mode. Or separately.
If I never went into the PA the Nux Solid Studio would be redundant. But it's a useful as a DI with cab sims and of course for home recordings. I also use the board for guitar (at home).

Oh, well, interweb goes crackers.:confused:o_O
 
I always love seeing what pedals folks use in their signal chain. When I was playing guitar I always had a few pedals in the chain but with bass I seldom do but might start to do more of, for now just call me “pedal curious”.
With that in mind…

View attachment 4929846 + View attachment 4929839 ...and love the sound I'm getting using them. BBC Sonic Stomp/BOSS RV-6/MXR d.i.+/BOSS CS-2 on full time. Everything else for one song or another.
Can you say more about the Sonic Stomp, what does it do for your sound?

Wow, you're fancy! This is all I use. The bass expander (opposite of compressor) pedal I'm waiting for could make me have to rethink this to allow for one more pedal. I've been doing too much thinking about it, not even knowing if I'll need it.

Can’t say I’ve ever heard about the “Can I Borrow Your Amp Head” pedal, what does it do for your sound?
