Merci! I was looking for some more locally but not many places carry good band stickers.

I recently just moved and am in the process of setting up my gear. I used to have this stuff scattered through various parts of my home but with a new baby coming any day now, my stuff has been relegated to one small corner.

Here is my basic setup:

Here is my uncompleted pedal board:

Sort of finalized board, I'm replacing the ODR1 with a timhulio Klon clone as soon as it arrives. Then all my needs are met other than a cool phaser/flanger.

Awesome band practice today, I used a two amp setup. My bassman and a Sunn Beta Bass. I found out the stereo out of the DD-2 splits the signal when bypassed, so I can run two amps with it. When engaged it does the ping pong affect, one amp is delayed.

Thank you. The red pedal is a clone of the original Marshall guv'nor overdrive pedals from the 80's. I had an original but it got stolen in 99. I bought one of the reissue ones but it just did not do what the original did. Heard this clone and liked it.

I used this to play the gig the other day, sounded really sweet. I'm really enjoying the Toadworks overdrive. I'd like another delay though, I've got my eye on a DE7 on ebay that is going for less than my small stone is at the moment, so hopefully I'll be able to afford it.

I'd also quite like a pedal tuner, I tend to use a headstock tuner when I'm running without pedals but something to stick down on the board would be nice, something like the GFS or Joyo one maybe?

My current pedal board.

Korg DT10 - Boss CS3 with Monte Allums mod - Fredric Effects Scrambled Brainz - Magnetic Effects Rat/Turbo Rat & IC Big Muff with Mids knob - Boss TR2 with Monte Allums mod - Electro Harmonix Stereo Polychorus - MXR Phase 45 reissue - Maxon AD999. Oh, and there's a couple of Boss Line Selectors - one for distortion, the other for modulation.

I really like it. As a standard chorus or flanger it doesn't really stand up to prevoius pedals i've had (MXR EVH Flanger, MXR Micro Flanger, Ibanez CCL & EHX Small Clone) but what it excels at is sounds that these pedals, and other more standard pedals, can't do. My favourite sound at the moment is the Flanger with the depth set to about 9 or 10 o'clock and the rate at about 3, it sounds kind of like a leslie/rotary speaker. I'd love to be able to work out the settings to make the noise from the beginning of Scentless Apprentice but it has alluded me so far, even using the settings from the EHX website doesn't seem to do it.

Nice Scrambled Brainz! Just sold the last of the first batch of them. Think of the rarity value!

The Scrambled Brainz is great, with the controls straight up I get some almost Neil Young type sounds. The only issue is with the output volume, I have to run it though another pedal to bring the level up. I guess this is something not easily rectified due to the clean sound/fuzz mix.

Yeah that pedal is unity gain like the originals.

I'm getting stuff together for the next batch now (75 of the buggers), and they will have a boost stage and a third volume knob. The artwork will be different though.

That will be awesome. If I didn't already have one i'd be very interested in one, i'm sure others will be too.

Finished up my MadBeanPedals Current Lover project, based on the Deluxe Electric Mistress. Benecol knocked me up some lovely graphics for these pedals I built myself as a treat.

Nice stuff! Especially like the minaturised Electric Mistress.

Think I'm gonna have my filter matrix as a stomp switch. If the boards ever arrive.

That's easily done, it's just a DPDT.

I haven't noticed his stuff taking too long to arrive if it wasn't a preorder. Did you get a shipped notice?

Aye, I just saw the project and thought "why not?" I've always loved EHX pedals, the classics; PolyChorus, DMM etc, so I thought I'd give this a go. It is rather lovely
