    OHHH well I feel like a dumbarse! Guess that part was accurate after all!

    Sorry about that! Reading post 1, I absolutely LOVE this idea! That said, Aceman, when you targeted me about having sooo many gain pedals, I was like, damn he's right I laughed! Now re-reading this all, I'm laughing harder!

    Thank you Aceman!

    I wasn't trying to be a joker... I just wanted to show off my toys and join the good vibes.

    That said, I don't appreciate the name calling and the personal attacks on my furniture haha but I suppose people say whatever they want online. Then again, maybe you're just joking around; its hard to tell over text!

    Read the message, page one post one.

    #1 THEY NEED TO BE EFFING CONNECTED!!!!!!!!!! WTF is wrong with you?!?!?!?!?!?!

    #2 They are on a shelf, above a picture, so I'm guessing at a minimum, it is the 3rd shelf, or maybe even 4th. CAN YOU EVEN LIFT YOUR LEG THAT HIGH TO STEP ON THEM?????? Probably not. Since you were to dumb to connect them, I assume to fat to lift your leg that high....

    #3 I don't see any velcro on the bottoms, and they appear to be free standing, not against the back wall of the shelf. So, even if you can lift that pathetic chicken leg or ham hock of a lower ling high enough, you'll kick them over. Dumb@$$

    #4 Little pokey hole adjusters and cardboard back of a likely Walmart/Target self assemble shelf system. What a sad pathetic home some of the stylish pedals.

    #5 Pedals higher than friends/family photo. Way to send a message as to what is import...

    #6 Pedals I like: Sun Face, Iron Horse, Cusack Screamer, OCD.

    #7 You have too damn many Gain pedals. Nine? Really? Seriously? 10 if you count the ZVex. Please tell me you turn them all on at once for that "special" tone.

    #8 Bare metal red knob nameless pedal. Pretentious AF. As if to say "I don't have a clone, but I do..." Warm Audio or some trash like that?

    #9 Then shamelessly presents the Hudson Broadcast for everyone to see.

    #9 I actually like the dual plexiglass system. Very modular. You could easily move/remove any of the four quadrants, without disturbing the others. NOT THAT IT EFFING MATTERS IF THEY ARE NOT PLUGGED IN!!!!

    #10. Kudos on a three decent Swirls. Phase, Flange, and Chorus. Chorus is a little plebeian and kind of an oddball in the group. Spend all your money on the particle board shelves?

    #11. Pedal order - I have to play the "I can't even" card here

    Get a REAL board for the floor (or at least velcro them to base and put them of the BOTTOM shelf - geez), buy some freaking patch cables, keep the fuzz and no more than three of their boxes, place the Phase/Chorus/Flange in that order followed by the delays, and get a power source.

    My god - do I have to tell everyone everything?!?!?!?!?!? Where did you put the amp? On the the 3rd step up the ladder to the attic?

    Seriously man...

    Thanks Jeremy! I'm quite happy with them. Haven't made much changes to my collection in awhile. May have permanently cured my GAS lol. I know, that doesn't sound much fun though huh?

    VOX is the flavor of the week because it is new but that board bounces between the JC, AC, Fender and sometimes my bass amp depending on my mood.

    Bob, here is the current state of my basement board. Pedals are always flying on and off, depending on my needs. I just got it back together. This is not my live/practice/studio board. This is for my noodling in the basement.

    I still have to put my other basement board for misfit toys back together with all of my stranger and bizarro stuff. Maybe this weekend. But for now, have at it.

    OK....this is very interesting.

    I like a lot of things about this board. I don't know why. I should hate it. Odd boxes, dusty/dirty, random cordage. But it has a vibe about it...

    The only thing that really bothers me is the Nigel. It seems out of place compared to the rest. If this board is for playing Queen, I wouldn't be surprised.

    Looks like everything going straight into what I assume is a clean Vox amp.

    But, Polytune first, Treble booster of the May style (modern repro), into the very chic boo-teeky Nigel, then on to three different flavors of swirl: EVH, DOD Chorus, then Rotary speaker. Finally a DD5 set to a medium long-ish delay, and a old (or well used) Morley Volume.

    I mean, cables akimbo, but like I said...I want to play Don't Stop Me Now when I see this.

    It just says "Old School player" using some appropriate modern pieces to get "that tone"

    I like it.
