well if you have anything particularly interesting you'd like to trade for it, don't hesitate to PM me.

i think the only thing i really want now is a nice lush chorus, then i'll be set.

bugger, i've only got two CE-3's, which are lush but not in the small clone vein. 7th fuzz is needed i think

how'd you end up with two of 'em?

Progrockabuse · Post by **Progrockabuse** » Sun Feb 14, 2010 9:16 pm

i got one in trade from chisa a while back. then last tuesday, my band's keyboard player gave me a boss pedalboard containing a turbo overdrive and another CE-3.

middle one is chisa's, left one is my keyboard players.

one thing i need to find is a new set of the thin patch cables for the boss board, my venoms won't fit nor the cheap ones i have lying around. doubt george L's will fit either. boss's newer pedalboard have more space in between pedals, so you can use normal patch leads. this older one is very tight, newer boss pedals don't fit as well. my TU-2 keeps moving around, whereas the CE-3 and OD-2 fit nice and stable.

what about those things you can get from maplin, they're basically two jacks joined together, no cable.

like this, but the ones i've got have a bigger bit in the middle:

no, i think i know what you mean. that might be worth a shot, though i'd have to measure the gap in between.
it'll be great if i can, it's quite a nice board for home use/band practice. then i can leave one board in gig readiness and one quick and easy mess around.

edit:was replying whilst you we're editing your post, so my post looses some context.

stewart · Post by **stewart** » Sun Feb 14, 2010 11:10 pm

the ones i've got have a 3cm middle piece (so your pedals would have to be 3cm apart from jack to jack).

edit: seen your edit, gotcha!

put together a little board for facemelttonez. lots of fun to be had in there (not for my neighbours, alas).

i found that EQ pedal in its box in my mate's garage, he had no idea where it came from, said he'd never seen it before in his life.

Fuzz/Delay/TGD is an amazing combo.

i haven't really used it all that much to be honest, it was on my main board for a while but i tended to use the cool cat fuzz more because it has a good bottom end.

with the setup pictured above i can get the dry velcro-ey sounds from the TGD but still get the horrible screams from the FF. best of both worlds. i've been trying to figure out a way of incorporating these into my rig but it'd probably involve a seperate board engaged by a bypass loop or something, and i have too many buttons to step on as it is...

we're off to the studio to do some recording at the end of the week though, i'll definitely be taking these with me.

Fran came over to the casa del prog for a few hours of riffage. ended up jamming rush's back catalog, with me on bass. traded fran my faithful old p bass for a couple of pedals, one of which was this

i'm quite liking it, quite bright sounding. almost fuzz like at higher gains.

the other pedal, which remains secret due to national security

,sounds great and is effect i've never got on with till now. stacks well with over pedals and makes a nice boost too.

nickd came over today and brought these two slabs of fun with him.

both ex hurb pedals and quite whats going on with the memory who knows.
now both are part of my collection, goodbye melody maker.

That DMM looks a bit mental! What's going on with the switch and green button?

benecol · Post by **benecol** » Sun Feb 21, 2010 4:53 pm

Ooh. Nice one ROb. What is going on with that DMM? Killswitch? Nudge?

Progrockabuse · Post by **Progrockabuse** » Sun Feb 21, 2010 4:58 pm

it doesn't do anything, plus the chorus section doesn't work. it's a vintage one. but the sound of the delay is amazing. might send it to mike to work out whats going on in there.

Sounds like a good plan
