saw metallica last night and no pedals or amps on stage was crazy

 

That Tele is utterly lush.

Also, I think you've put together a board which is like an exam for a guitarist. If you can't get a solid set of tones for like 80+% of popular music using that, you've got issues.

 

Didn't mention guitars, but my current set of electrics is:

Fender MIM Strat HSS (2005ish I think, massively modified to now be a single wide ranging Creamery HB, one tone, one volume. Only other original parts are the trem block, back plate and the wood)
Fender AM Standard Tele (2013)
G&L Doheny V12
PRS Custom 22 (2013)

Currently got 3 guitars I'm trying to shift (to cover the PRS) as well. Smallest collection of electrics I've had for quite some time, but the AM Fender, G&L and PRS set such a high bar that I'm not gassing on guitars too badly these days.

 

yeah that was the goal with the board haha thanks. i like a lot of different shit so has to be verstile

 

i've found some good gear on craigslist but also this is the kind of shit we're dealing with in missourah

Bass board

 

That DD-20 pedal rocks. I have one of those. Do you use the FS-5U as a tap tempo for it?

 

Yep, it's way better to be able to change tempo immediately than have to hold the DD-20 down for a couple seconds to activate it. It does look silly just dangling off the board, but I wanted more space for actual pedals.

 

100% agree! Especially live.

This is what I use for tap tempo for that pedal:

I love sonic blue. Congrats.

 

How do you like that 1981 pedal? I’ve been tempted to pick one up to have a rat style pedal.

 

I love it. Favorite distortion I’ve ever used.
