thanasis00 Posted September 22, 2014 Posted September 22, 2014 Hello! I'm new here! So, here is my pedalboard! On the top lane, from left ro right: 1) Polytune 2) DIY Middle Booster (opens the fuzz pedals' sound even better) 3) DIY Pharaoh Fuzz (modded for bass) Bottom lane: 1) DIY Mountainkings Megalith slightly modded Quote
mingsta Posted September 22, 2014 Posted September 22, 2014 Here's my fledgling pedal board, built around a pedaltrain junior courtesy of SK8 off the classifieds. At the moment its just got my basics for gigging (volume pedal, compressor and A/B box for switching between two basses), plus an overdrive pedal that I'm yet to use in anger. Its powered by a Harley Benton powerplant Jr, which was stonking good value for an isoluated PSU. In the future I'll probably add the following: - Aguilar Octamiser (ordered and currently on a USPS slow boat from the states) - TC Electronics Polytune Classic - 3Leaf Wonderlove - MXR Chorus Deluxe Then I'm done with the effects game. For real. ...oh who am I kidding... Longer term, I can imagine myself adding this lot too... - 3Leaf Enabler (preamp/di/headphone amp) - Some form of low gain tubey OD (Darkglass VM, Carl Martin Bass Driver, COG Knightfall 66 are on the shortlist) - Upgraded power supply - Buffer (if req'd) Quote
mikebass84 Posted September 23, 2014 Posted September 23, 2014 I think I'm finished now. Don't think I need anything else or have the space for anything else. [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/Etidek5.jpg[/IMG] Quote

dudewheresmybass Posted September 23, 2014 Author Posted September 23, 2014 Ha ha. Famous last words!!! We've all said that before!- some of us more than others!! Quote
Mr Anthony Posted September 25, 2014 Posted September 25, 2014 (edited) So many cool boards in here! Here's my contribution I've got a Mooer Shimverb yet to go on, but I don't think there will be room for my Ditto looper, so I'll likely be leaving that out. The chorus is more of a temporary thing, since I'm not sure if I actually like it, and/or have a real need for it. I'd rather have a nice delay in there I think. I don't know, we'll see. I bit the bullet and went for some of that fancy 3m Dual Lock. At £7ish per metre, I was banking on it being really good stuff. Honestly can't fault it though. Those pedals are [b][i]on there[/i][i]! [/i][/b]I'm yet to get a power supply sorted, but im thinking either just grabbing a one-spot for now, or that Diago powerstation doo-dad. Hopefully the latter will fit underneath, but we'll see. Everything is nice and neat though, all straight and connected nicely. Can't wait to get this thing to a practice session and see how it goes. I'm really liking the Ashdown with a subtle bit of drive plugged into my BH500. I've getting closer to the sound I want, which is great. I just hope it still works with the band! Cheers!

Old Horse Murphy Posted September 29, 2014 Posted September 29, 2014 Here's my updated Pedal board. Now on a Pedaltrain 1 and already running out of room [URL=http://s945.photobucket.com/user/nwmurphy/media/imagejpg2-7.jpg.html][IMG]http://i945.photobucket.com/albums/ad298/nwmurphy/imagejpg2-7.jpg[/IMG][/URL] Quote
BigBeatNut Posted October 2, 2014 Posted October 2, 2014 (edited) [quote name='ordep' timestamp='1410181619' post='2546850'] new comp added and rearranged the pedals. all the most used pedals are now at the bottom. Now I can also stomp the SubT, Xero and TAFM at the same time. :-) [color=#141823]chain is: turbo tuner->subt->TAFM->xero+hothand3->B3K->hikari->M5+mission expression (not shown)->jamman->enabler[/color] [/quote] What is the hikari, please ? (Googling hasn't told me anything) EDIT: Ahh, that's the compressor ? From these guys [url="http://kalikotaudio.blogspot.co.uk/"]HERE[/url] ? Edited October 2, 2014 by BigBeatNut Quote

Ernest (the kalikot guy) is a friend of mine. not really sure but I think it is somewhat based on the demeter compulator. It is a great comp for the money. Edited October 3, 2014 by ordep Quote

SimonEdward Posted October 7, 2014 Posted October 7, 2014 (edited) Probably the most boring pedal board on BC - bar none! I quite like TC electronic.. and my OC-2.. http://infinitybass.com/pedalboard/ Edited April 27, 2015 by SimonEdward Quote
steviedee Posted October 8, 2014 Posted October 8, 2014 A bit boring I know but I quite like it! [attachment=173297:pedal.JPG] Quote
worship_mud Posted October 9, 2014 Posted October 9, 2014 this is it, at the moment, [s]trembling from anticipation[/s] waiting for a xotic bb, for heavy(ish) distortion duties... here are some soundsamples in various combinations (bear with me..)

My rick and fretless stingray have considerably different output levels. So the ls2 allows me to modify the volume and have them both plugged in at the same time. Quote
GazWills Posted October 17, 2014 Posted October 17, 2014 (edited) ooh yes, bass whammy, tall font and a pile of dark glass, win win win!!! Edited October 17, 2014 by GazWills Quote
Guest FretNoMore Posted October 17, 2014 Posted October 17, 2014 (edited) My first DIY build ... easy enough, four jacks in a 1550A box, a little send/return patchbay that gives me an insert point in the middle of my effects chain. To put a wah after the dirt, or even patching in a whole second board for fun and games at home. Edited October 17, 2014 by FretNoMore Quote
Kev Posted October 17, 2014 Posted October 17, 2014 (edited) I often wonder, when effects builders see gigging boards with stickers covering the LEDs, why they don't either reduce the current going to LEDs to make them dimmer or just use dimmer bulbs. With exception to the whammy and the TFR, all the LEDs on my board above are stupid bright when you are above them. Edited October 17, 2014 by Kev Quote
Guest FretNoMore Posted October 17, 2014 Posted October 17, 2014 (edited) Agreed ... some LEDs are so bright I can't see the knobs on the pedal, and I have spots in my vision if I look at them for more than a second. The blue-white ones that are all the rage now are the worst. Edited October 17, 2014 by FretNoMore Quote
