Your pedalboard BEFORE & AFTER TalkBass

[HeavyJazz]

Back in the fall of 2010 I was just coming off of a gruesome dual studio project and was jonesing for something different - so I put together a pedalboard system. (See picture BTB.)

Then came TalkBass... (See picture ATB.) Not shown is the Eventide Space which I generally keep on top of my bass head or the computer's interface. I find it more practical to access it by hand as opposed to foot.

How has TalkBass damaged - …er, I mean “improved” your pedalboard arsenal?

It certainly looks a lot neater. I hope it sounds as good as it looks. Which new toy do you like the most?

Mine didn't exist before TB

talk bass made me have more of an idea of what I should get and what brands I should get in order to get the sound that I am looking for.

The FEA and B7K are a tough act to follow and the J48 helped me get over having to sell my U5.

Sell me your DE-CL.

BTB, I used a Boss Chorus in the 70s and 80s (think sting)... then used a Fulltone Bass Driver in the 90s, but no board for either.

ATB of course, the board has been going through a never ending process of transmogrification. Here's the latest (which is about to go through another change). The same can be said of my bass playing. These days it's focused on roots rock with punk rock undertow, dub and electronic.

Let's just say it's the opposite to those weight loss before-and-after photos.

 

[Spiffmeister]

Hah. Behold.

 

[Hank Scorpio]

Was using a Korg Pitchblack and a Boss ODB-3, later a Turbo Rat & a Bass Big Muff added.

Now, my board is the same Pitchblack > Demon King > Rat Tail > Belcat DLY-503 Delay > Darkglass B3K.

I'm still mostly just using dirt, but I'm sure that'll change

I did have an OC-3 which I sold on, I never found a use for it, but I don't remember if that was before or after Talkbass (I know it wasn't as a direct result of it, though)

Same here man, the Talkbass effects sub forum ruined my life

And I don't even use the GT-10B that much, but I hate to part with it.

So, basically, a picture of my floor, then a picture of my pedalboard?
