Pedalboard I & II: Final Update (For Now…)

[MasterKtulu]

This is my main pedalboard (Version 3.0 Final) that I use in front of my Fender Hot Rod Deluxe III. I know it’s a bit much (Alright, a bit too much…), but I love every pedal there (Although, I use some more than others…) I convinced myself that I needed so many pedals by telling myself that since I liked to play mostly Blues, Classic Rock, Hard Rock and Heavy Metal I needed all of those pedals...

It looks pretty clean and tight considering I didn’t design it to hold as many pedals as it holds now…




This is what Version 1.0 looked liked… (Pretty good considering that for the past 15 years before I bought this all these pedals, I only played with digital multi-effects pedals…)




And this is what Version 2.0 looked like…




And this is my secondary pedalboard (Version 2.0 Final) that I use to push my Marshall JCM900 MkIII Combo. The layout is a bit weird but when I designed it, I lived in a much smaller place and I needed to be able to store it under a small table for it not to be in the way and I wanted all the cables to be permanently plugged in (As I don’t gig, my pedalboards don’t need to be portable).

Version 1.0 of this pedalboard was almost the same, except I had my MXR GT-OD where the Micro Amp is now...




Incidentally, that old Ibanez EQ is the first pedal I ever bought in the early 90s and it still works perfectly fine.

Very nice collection of pedals.

Where are the sound demos?

Re: Pedalboard I & II: Final Update (For Now…)

Great board and yeah, very tidy indeed. Any noise issues with powering so many? What are you using to power them?

You like your MXR's that's clear.

thats what I thought too.

Your small board looks very similar to mine

Yeah, I love MXR Pedals! They are well built, analog, sound great and affordable, what's not to like?

Cool board!
With all of 6 dirt pedals, do you use them individually or do you combine some?
Examples??

Except for the PlexiTone (that has its own 12V plug), I power all the other pedals with a single Godlyke PA-9D Power-All Daisy Chain System (2000mA) that comes with a 11 pedal daisy chain hookup and I added a additional 5 pedal daisy chain hookup to it. I've had no problem with any added noise, or any power issues (Even when all the pedals are on).

I had planned on upgrading when I started adding more and more pedals, but as of yet it's still working great!

Both overdrive pedals sound good together, and both Custom Badass pedals sound good together. With the the gain turned low on the GT-OD, it sounds good boosting all the other pedals. But most of the others just add a wall of feedback and noise when combined.

I want that chorus.

Man considering the amp's own gain, you have about 5,000 overdriven sound options there.

Lot o options there.

What do you use your Road Rage for? I have a dual loop switcher and I love it!

It's a Dual Buffer. With so many pedals (A lot of them true bypass) I was loosing some of the high frequencies... I plug my guitar in the first buffer input and the first buffer output goes to the first pedal in my chain. Then the last pedal in my chain plugs in the second buffer input, and finally the second buffer output goes to the amp input.

Thanks for the info!

I want to hear the pedals in action

Re: Pedalboard I & II: Final Update (For Now…)

Would it be safe to say that you are a fan of MXR pedals?
