How do you all get your photos so large on this forum? I'm not too good at posting images - last one I tried was apparently too big, I compressed it to the right size and it came back looking like a stamp. Any quick tips on getting decentsized photos on here? Cheers!
I think I hate being indecisive.

I dislike modulations of any kind except phaser. The board is pretty much complete right now, though I will upgrade the compressor (the Marshall one is GREAT but a bit noisy) and swap the Small Stone for a Nano one. The SD1 is to undergo further modding too...

And soon to be added are a DIY BSIABII I did a while ago which is at someone else's house right now, as well as a mosfet booster once uni is less heavy and I can build it.

And of course I'll need an actual board and a proper power supply... The 1spot is great but I could do with something a bit better quality.

That's some serious Russian pedals you got there!  You need a pedal truck not a board  :lol:

Great rig.

ironic that that huge black box is called a SMALL stone!  :P

i don't have a pedal board, i usually only plug in the one or two pedals i plan on using, but i'll have to get them all together for a group hug and photograph.

Yeeep those will have to be rehoused I think... The Muff I'm ok with (...) but the Small Stone will have to go, too much real estate. Brilliant phaser though!


Yesterday I GASed for a tremolo pedal :( What's wrong with me? :( Damn pocket POD's blackface models  :evil:

The grey pedal is a CM Plexitone prototype.

You mean you DON'T have a pedalboard !!! How embarassing !!  


Don't be embarassed gwEm  :)  - if you're happy with your sound stick with it. Some of the best guitar sounds I've heard are from guitarist with little or no pedals between guitar and amp,

Has been up here already, actually I am undecided whether I shouldn't go back to straight into amp and the Tonelab SE in the loop ...

these two.
nothing else.... yet.
i keep the tuner AFTER the overdrive. Reason being that the tuner is true bypass so it doesnt matter when its off, but if it is before the overdrive and ON, and the overdrive is on, then i get this wierd hum when i tune. Otherwise its relatively silent.

Might add a bluebeard and a wah eventually.. once i can find a wah i like.

maybe a gate in the loop.

my maxon OD 808 really DOES make poop sound good

;) don't worry - i'm not embarrassed, although sometimes i think it might be quite convienient to have a pedal board... with 3 pedals its a slight waste of money. nice to check out other peoples though

Just took it, like, 10 minutes ago! From right to left...

Boss FV500H volume pedal
Teese RMC2 (just got it!)
Boss TU-2 tuner
SPF Ego Booster (clean boost, I use it to boost my Lace Sensors output)

That stuff all goes in the front of the amp, and this stuff goes in the effects loop:

MXR 6-band EQ
BYOC Phaser
MXR Stereo Chorus
Boss DD-2
Two handmade true bypass looper pedals, one for the phaser and one for the chorus/delay.

There's a little bit of space left for a BBE Sonic Stomp and then another delay pedal, possibly the new MXR Carbon Copy or the BBE Two Timer.

Its basic, but I don't use that many pedals! My grandad built the actual board which has a lid and becomes a case! What a legend.

Had a seymour duncan pickup booster (which was shite) and the Zakk Wylde overdrive pedal, which is pointless having with a valve head but makes solid states sound bloody lovely!
