Re: Lets see those pedal boards you are using right now.

Finally got around to shooting my current floor board. I make my own boards w a tilt varying in size to what I have going with pedals.
I am adding a JHS splitter buffer up front to enhance my split from the EH Mel9 which goes out to a separate fullrange stereo EV rig, Mel9 effect does not go through std guitar chain.
(Not really happy with the buffer outs in the Mel9 the JHS will split the signal right to the board and the Mel9.)
Chain is Mesa ToneBurst > EH Mel9 >dry to 3 Leaf Proton Envelope Filter > Mesa Flux Drive > Wampler Pinnacle Deluxe > Seymour Duncan Palladium out to rack w modeler rig.
Mel 9 full wet goes to a Radial PB1 high end buffer and slight clean boost if needed >Radial ABY to be able to mute the Mel 9 signal > into a Digitech Trio
Gold PitchBlack runs off the ABY out. Large Controller 2 switch rig is for my GSP 1101.
I actually run three signal chains in stereo which is overkill but such is the fun. Would get into my rack rig but I think I have bored everyone enough.
I should clarify that I really only use a couple different amp models that are tweaked out, I do not use any of the modelers front ended effects, maybe a phaser or flange mostly it's stereo delay and reverb. i can get some really nice clean tube models out of it that do very well. I use the pedals for tone changes.
