bouvier Posted March 31 Share Posted March 31 The latest board I am putting together is going to be huge - I mean huge. The drive section alone has 4 large enclosure pedals The board will be home to: Peterson Tuner Love Bomb - R2R GE Fuzzface - R2R Supa Mkll Fuzz - EHX Russian Big Muff A/DA Flanger - EXH Russian Small Stone - Neo Ventilator ll - Haz Labs Mutron lll+ Shin-Ei Vibe2 - T-Rex Binson Echorec - Boss DM101 Delay Machine - Game Changer Light Pedal Reverb This lot is powered either via mains or Gigrig Gen14. Taking care of loops is a Earthquaker Swiss Things and Gigrig Loopy2. There will also be a smaller board containing Beat Buddy, Midi Maestro and Aeros Loop Studio. All Stereo. A walnut tree be sacrificed for the greater good. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The dimensions are for the actual pedal space not the actual overall length (adds a couple of inches to the length of the board) Edited April 1 by bouvier 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bouvier Posted July 8 Author Share Posted July 8 A few dramas and crisis halted the board now back on track. Mocked the board up in chipboard to see what and how the pedals go where. The board is actually larger than the initial plan. Hopefully the board will be finished in the next week or so 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ped Posted July 8 Share Posted July 8 Oh wow that’s awesome. I can appreciate how big the Love Bomb is now next to the TINY big muff!! Have you got the Electric Mistress resting on something to get it slanted towards you? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bouvier Posted July 8 Author Share Posted July 8 Yes it on a riser, I use risers quite often. On this board the tuner, ventillator, mistress, reverb and delay are on different risers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

uncle psychosis Posted July 13 Share Posted July 13 A lot of cool pedals there but I just couldn't be arsed with the hassle. Cables, power supplies, the size, the weight... ugh. Rather you than me! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stewblack Posted July 13 Share Posted July 13 Wonderful project. Beautiful, quixotic and right up my street . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bouvier Posted July 16 Author Share Posted July 16 (edited) Finished the board. Happy with the layout, a few minor tweaks will need to be made. Will have to use a mixture of EBS flat and George L's patch cables. Power will be a mix of Strymon and GigRig.

ped Posted July 17 Share Posted July 17 What's the Fuzz Face like on bass? Compared to the Big muff? I'm interested because it's massive and in an impractical shaped box Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skybone Posted July 18 Share Posted July 18 You'll need to fill out a Method Statement & Risk Assessment to carry it in to wherever you're playing (plus a compliment of Roadies!). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bouvier Posted August 5 Author Share Posted August 5 Had a very busy weekend. Power sorted but I cut 2 cables to short, c'est la vie. Unfortunately it means stripping the top deck to fit the longer power cables. Other than that all the individual loops are sorted. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm interested because it's massive and in an impractical shaped box The Fuzz Face is good however the Big Muff is much better. There are plenty of other fuzzes I would put ahead of the Fuzz Face, it is all or nothing. Very fuzzy/distorted with the bass on full volume but doesn't clean up without losing all usable volume. Save your money and get the Big Muff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a laminated Method Statement.... We all know the risks.... but to save the innocent I will put barbed wire round the whole board. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only pedals operated with feet are the Aeros looper, Beat Buddy and Maestro. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
