My pedal board setup

[RW James]

I had to reconfigure my pedalboard to get the Weeping Demon in there. So I pulled everything out and packed it back in - a little neater and less prone to problems, hopefully.

The board is divided into two sections, (1) before amp and (2) effects loop.

The input is goes through my Switcheroo (from B Bent). I have it setup so I can have two guitars ready to go and switch without unplugging and plugging. I added the little colored tape tabs to match the lights Greg used and to match the color codes on my cables.
From there it goes to the tuner -> Weeping Demon -> Bad Monkey -> Tubulator -> Super Feedbacker -> Heavy Metal, then through the blue cable plug to the amp.

Then from the effects loop into the red cable plug though the Delay -> Small Clone Chorus -> Tremolo.

The power lead plugs with blue tape are for the old style Boss pedals. Their power comes from an old Boss power supply. The other power leads come from a Godlyke power supply.

I have the pedals on the top shelf that I use the least (I rarely play lead) and most used on the bottom shelf.

Comments? Suggestions?

Make you own. Its pretty easy really. Go to Home Depot and buy a small shelf(they sell them laminated in different colors). Once you have the board then you need to mount some feet on it, and maybe a top board to lock the pedals in place. Now you have to consider the pedal order and how you plan on powering them. I use 2 one spots and George L cables to wire it all. Works great. If you check my gear there is a photo of my board there, its changed since the photo and I'm using 2 amps so take that into consideration.

Mine started life as a Rondo Pedal Case The case itself is well made I think. I had a little trouble with the fabric they used and replaced with automotive trunk liner fabric. I also had to build a shelf, then make modifications because not all of my pedals fit well. Maybe not the best on the market, but the best for under $40.

I thought I recognized that switcheroo, Greg really did a great job on those didn't he?

What's the Boss Digital Sampler/Delay like?

I picked up that pedal in a box of other boss pedals from a friend at work. I wanted a delay pedal and it's a great delay. I've never used the sampler part so I can't say.

I've decided I ultimately intend to get a pedal board, but my setup is going through way too many changes at the moment. In 3-5 years, I'll probably be settled enough to invest in a board

I understand what you are saying. But honestly, just because your setup is changing doesn't mean you can't use a pedal board. I've changed mine several times. It's really not a problem.
