Spent an hour today chasing a horrible hum, ended up being the Wah, which due to me removing the rubber feet to aid with sticking the unit down, leaving only the bare screws on the base, has scratched through the PT black to the chassis, and was causing some weird ground loop with the power supply unit. Sorted now though with a bit of tape.

I had visions of the underneath wiring being a piece of art... yer that didn't happen. Dunno how people have the patience.

btw, I'm not left handed, but I find the Wah etc on the left so much more natural.
What are the stubby straight plugs going into the switcher and where did you get them?

Just normal mono quarter inch plugs with that spring support piece removed. Nothing special, just jaycar units from memory.

I feel like a right gimp trying to wah or press pedals with my left foot.
Maybe cuz it’s my clutch foot?
It’d be handy to have two right feet in this instance lol.

Ooh reminds me, I’ve got a wah volume I’m borrowing off a bloke I know just sitting on a shelf.

Weird huh, I'm right handed, but for some reason using my left foot I felt more in control for wah while playing standing. I have a shitty back, so I generally always practice standing.
I thought it might have been because my guitar body is resting on my right hip upper leg but who knows..just a bit of a pain when the first pedal in a chain needs to be far left.

You could get around that with a small box bypass looper thing.

I have a shit back too. I should play standing more lol.

Little afternoon project. Hacked apart an old suitcase and voila!

Never been a big pedal guy, but I've got more than usual now, so needed a place for them. Have a trem I'll probably chuck on there too. And plenty of space for the Big Muff when it comes back from being modded by Tony :thumbup: Little Dino pedal is covering fuzz in the meantime, though it doesn't work with the power supply. I have no idea what it is, but it's a velcro ripping sounding thing. Lee from Lightning Wave gave it to me years ago and he doesn't recall its origin either.

If you're not in a worship band I'd be concerned!

That's why I'm trying to sell/swap the McFly because it's not enough to be in a worship band. Hahaha

Tidy!!

Easier than adding a resistor is just put some of that christmas present sticky tape over teh LEDs, that calms them down.

Just finished wiring up the latest iteration!

Image

Signal chain:
Input->Tuner->Volume Pedal->Octron->Cusack Screamer->Sassy OCD Clone->ABY Box
Then from the ABY, one goes Flashback->HOF2->Loop station input 1->Guitar Amp
The other goes straight to Loop station input 2-> Bass amp

This is what I use for my solo looping thing (loop pedal MIDI syncs to drum machine). Loving the addition of the ABY pedal for keeping the bass lines through the seperate amp, or just going mental with distorted dual amp octave craziness

Peper's Pedals (who made the Sassy one) could whip you one up pretty cheap, he made a Mike Nolan bass overdrive so could just use the same image and layout. Great guy too, bloody reasonable rates. He also made the pink ABY switcher on my board
