So here is my board as it stands right now!
I know it looks like a fire hazard, but I decided to get out two phasers.. The Phase 90 and the Ibanez PH7 for two different sounds. The chain now goes guitar>wireless>tuner>SD1>Orange Burst OD>GE7>wah>Phase 90>DD3>CH-1 chorus>Tera Echo TE-2>Danelectro FT Fuzz>Ibanez PH7>amp

I'd get that checked out if I were GF.

Re: ANOTHER NPD and FINAL BOARD REVISION!
That's quite a few B class buffers, whatever floats your boat.
I'm one of those cork sniffing boutique snobs.
My "final revisions" happen about once a month, I think I am on my 2nd century.
"A great player can make just about anything sound decent, a poor one can make great gear sound bad.
You know what they say, 'if you cannot hear the problem, it does not exist, ...for you'."

Is that just on this forum or are you including all of the other ones that Nathan frequents?

Re: ANOTHER NPD and FINAL BOARD REVISION!
The difference is, you are kind enough not to post a new thread every single effing time.
Nathan is labouring under the delusion that everyone else on the planet is as fascinated with his pedalboard as he is.

Re: ANOTHER NPD and FINAL BOARD REVISION!
I get the excitement and the wanderlust of pedals, been there so many times myself, just this week with a couple new ones.
Cool to be fired up over ones board or gear that is what gets you playing.
I love it when I hear "final" as infinite is never final. Wait till he starts to come to the issue that most of those pedals are, how to say, a used bin clean out bargain buy. But I'm a gear snob what do I know.
There is this thing we all seem to have in that whatever we have at the time surely must be the greatest and best there is and somehow higher end top shelf pedals do not sound any better. :kabong:
Music is a progression, I get bored with the same pedals in a couple months and very few survive the constant test and trial of new tones and horizons. I like to hip these young players to the notion that many on line vendors like Sweetwater, AMS, and zZounds offer some really good lines and builders with no hassle, no high interest, no real credit check or qualification of some yada music card finance dirge, 3, 4, 6, 8 and 12 payments on better gear that one can afford with a simple bank card for monthly auto payments.
A few things here are melting my brain, a "wireless" into used Boss, is there even one by-pass wired pedal, fuzz at the end of the chain even after delays and such....I would guess no one is offering advice other than the nits who say "there are no rules" yeah, but there are terrible tones and results. The more stuff you are trying to chain the more complicated the interaction and positioning becomes.
I had a cool video where Brian Wampler and another builder were discussing buffered circuit pedals and how all buffers are not created equal (something that one has to learn is the weirdness of buffered and by-pass), they were saying how the 2 B class buffers in each Boss pedal pulls about 1% of your real tone away. Too many buffers is not a goal. And for the love of god let's not talk cable quality although with $20 pedals what is the need. But there is hope of evolving and maybe some day others will bask in the glow of a delicious glass of wine buzz.
I used to post pics of my gear until it got to the point a room full of stuff made me look self indulgent and a cork sniffing boutique snob, which I am but cheers. :banned:Seems like we have have stages we go through with building different lines and qualities of pedals, seems like if you do not eventually evolve to the more hand made boutique level of pedals and around a $2K board you're just being a pussy and not trying.

Re: ANOTHER NPD and FINAL BOARD REVISION!
My attitude is that, if a given pedal adds more to the music that I am making today than it detracts, I shall use it.
A lot of the time, I just play guitar > cable > valve amplifier > microphone(s) > recorder.

Re: ANOTHER NPD and FINAL BOARD REVISION!
True. I am a bit of a mad scientist regarding my unorthodox rig and certainly far and away from a purist. But one thing is for sure, you have to be a great player to be a minimalist. I do not like effects used for the sake of covering up bad playing, for me it is just more colors in the crayon box and when one learns to use a pedal and play it as an extension of the guitar itself something magical happens. I dig magic.
