Finbar Posted March 23, 2011 Posted March 23, 2011 My old pedalboard must have been easily 2 grand or something. Don't want to go down that road again! Quote
cheddatom Posted March 23, 2011 Posted March 23, 2011 heh, I gig* with like 25 pedals. God knows how you value them but none cost less than £40 and there are a few worth more than £100. *hopefully i'll actually have a gig on bass soon, can't wait. Quote
mcgraham Posted March 23, 2011 Posted March 23, 2011 It's amazing how quickly the cost of pedals racks up. I'm doing a clearout at the moment and thought I should add up the total of what I'd get if they all sold, and what seemed like a handful of pedals all averaging less than £100 second hand added up to a grand! That's with second hand values too, so think how much I must've spent on everything having bought some stuff brand new. Mental... Quote
The Twickerman Posted March 23, 2011 Posted March 23, 2011 They may cost a lot... but you build them up gradually, and when you want to change it's a small incremental change. Quote
xgsjx Posted March 23, 2011 Posted March 23, 2011 I think a good pedal board that has your sound & is fairly compact (if needed) is worth it's wieght in gold. I'm scared to think what wieght Shep's board would be! Quote
Finbar Posted March 23, 2011 Posted March 23, 2011 I'm considering going even further to the dark side. Quote
xgsjx Posted March 24, 2011 Posted March 24, 2011 Oooh, that looks interesting. I'm off to google! Quote

[/quote] i went to see his first gig with that set-up. it ripped. i did advise him to fit castors to the board though. there are 1K+ lightweight rigs that weigh in at less. nothing sounds that good though.

pantherairsoft Posted March 26, 2011 Posted March 26, 2011 At the studio tonight just adding the last bits of cabling to the new upgraded version... Still no casters though... Pics later Quote
xgsjx Posted March 26, 2011 Posted March 26, 2011 Just before I read Phil's post I was thinking casters would be an investment. Or what about one of those fold up trolleys? Bigger wheels for getting over curbs & things. Quote
pantherairsoft Posted March 26, 2011 Posted March 26, 2011 The trolley is an idea we've both had and will be an investment over the next couple of weeks. It'd be useful for more than just the board anyway! Although I don't think I'll be bumping it down any kerbs in a hurry! Just finished at the studio. Board fully wired. All badass. Some amazing ambient sounds coming from it. Sorry about iPhone quality pics Signal chain for those geeks that care… [b]BASS ->[/b] Digitech Whammy IV -> Boss LS-2 -> …..[b]Channel A —>[/b] ……….

Albi Posted March 29, 2011 Posted March 29, 2011 This is what it's like at the moment: On the way are a Copilot FX Dubscope "Deluxe", Orbit and a TC Electronics tuner. A custom LPF fitted into a expression pedal enclosure is almost ready. Then I might need a normal overdrive or distortion pedal since I haven't got anything like that Oh yeah, might have to upgrade to a Pedaltrain Pro when those pedals arrive... Quote
