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

You did mention the really really cool ones, Like Ed and Ace, make their own….

She barely gives two craps about my gear. She definitely doesn't care what you and Ed have. I think her curiosity was if it performed some function on the board every guitarist needs i.e. a tuner or a power supply. If I tried to explain what it does she would be out of the room before I finished the word modulation.

WOW! My wife bought me the Pedaltrain pedalboard AND its road case for our anniversary....She likes the noises that come out of the studio...

My current board. Basically, the dirt/boost section is the only part that is variable although I'm thinking about adding a phaser (which means dropping something else).

My wife is supportive. She bought me my SG before we were married and my B. C. Rich last year. She has also ponied up for effects, cases and amps. However she has no desire to know the geek side of all of this. I think she was mostly interested in the EVH 90 because she bought me mine for my birthday a few years back. .

Nice and simple. My main gigging amp is a modeler. Even when I'm using my Marshall head, this is all I have out front.

Now that's a good use of a cutting board! You sir win the innovation award!

Understood! There are times when my wife's eyes kind of glaze over when I explain the difference between boost, overdrive, distortion, and full-on crunch....

Got any clips or videos? I bet I'd really like what you do with that board. Two tape delays, a reverb and looper... Is the treadle a wah or volume?

The treadle is an RMC3, as kindly recommended by several forumites (including you actually, so thanks again ). No clips as of yet, but I might try to set something up once I get the hang of the looper.

Wow! So many cool boards. Mine looks downright Neanderthal in comparison...plywood atop two pieces of 2x4, kept safe in an old tweed suitcase that I lacquered. I'll have to get a pic.
As far as pedals: Vox 847 wah->strobe tuner->Boss DS-1->Catalinbread CB30->Boss DD3. All powered by a Pedal Power 2.
I have a KMD Super Flanger too, but I'm not sure if/where I'll put it in the chain.

Here's mine so far: Vox Satchurator, ProCo Solo, ProCo Rat, MXR Analog Chorus, Suhr Shiba Drive, Suhr Riot, Mad Professor Stone Grey Distortion, Mad Professor Golden Cello, Ernie Ball VP Jr.

The powered board is an old Boss, it can't power the two ProCo pedals because of the input/daisy chain for the pedal board won't fit the ProCo pedals. Looking at getting a custom board made that will accommodate all of them and that I can power the Rat and Solo...those are just awesome pedals that need to be used. lol

I mainly use these in pairs for rhythm and lead: Rat and Solo, Shiba and Riot, Golden Cello and Stone Grey. The Satchurator sounds amazing but doesn't really get used. The Chorus doesn't get used a whole lot either but I love it when it is on.

Ah excellent! Looks fun!

For your dining and dancing pleasure:

Wow! The dirt, the whole dirt and nothing but the dirt!

If I may ask, what amp are you running through? Or are you just prepared for any backline you might encounter?

Thanks for sharing!

Liam bring your board over my place. I want to see if we knock out the power in the neighborhood if we turn on both our boards at the same time.

OK, let's start with the Soul Food, just the mildest OD setting you can imagine, to give it a little grit, the Maxon is your typical OD-808, 70's arena rock overdrive, typical midrange "hump", the BOSS Distortion is set to a Van Halen-ish setting, just in case a "screamer" is required. The Digitech Screaming Blues was recommended to me by a friend, Mark Anderson, the guitarist in Boston's own Fat City Band, great OD with bass control. Keeley modded Blues driver for just about everything I play, OCD for drive to crunch, same with the Wampler Plextortion. Certain pedals seem to handle a crunch setting for certain songs better, so I like to leave my options open.
Oh yeah, the EQ pedal, setting is to emulate the Hollies "Long Cool Woman In A Black Dress", one of my ultimate favorite tunes....

Oh, the amps? Marshall DSL-100, Mesa Boogie F100, Fender Blues Junior Reissue, and a Fender Twin, and a Vox AC30...

Wanna take Boston by storm? Yeah, that could be fun!
