Re: Show us your pedalboard
Ha! Definitely the best looking board I’ve had!
Fortunately it sounds alright too.

Pettyjohn drives are insane. Have you seen his new creation? Lift, Gold, Iron and Chime all in one box. $1100 to get into NZ and yes I seriously looked into it.

Yeah, the chime is such a great pedal. It’s magic stacked into the Lightspeed! It’s the only Pettyjohn I’ve played myself, but I’ve heard the Iron and that was awesome too.
I haven’t seen that!! That’s crazy. I’ll check it out. Thanks for the heads up on it

Re: Show us your pedalboard
This was many hours of work. Replaced all cables with solderless custom-length jobbies. Installed patchbay to minimise plugging and unplugging fuckery. Replaced remaining Velcro with DualLock.
All ins and outs via the patchbay at the back. Set up for wet-dry-wet.
Input goes to fuzz, tuner then Flint. From there it splits to the 'dry' side, where it just gets the unlabelled white pedal (currently a very noisy analogue delay, but can/may replace with an OD) then out to the centre amp.
Other output from Flint goes to "wet" channels. Two more gain stages (Sunset and Benson), then mod, delay, reverb, looper.
Morningstar does MIDI things. Selects presets for the Sunset, Synaesthesia, Volante and Nightsky. Each bank is set up for a song, then I can access up to eight patches with each bank. Often one or two for each percussion, chords, melody, lead. Saves a lot of foot-tapping.
Some issues which are not currently bothersome but may lead to future changes. No loop selector, so fuzz, Flint and Benson have to be manually switched on and off. Flint is not MIDI controlled so to be honest is playing second-fiddle to Synaesthesia for tremolo and Nightsky for reverb. Can't fit the expression pedal on the board, so may lose a gain stage to free up space.
Very happy overall.

Re: Show us your pedalboard
If you put the tuner sideways on the top RHS of the board, would the expression pedal fit under it?

Re: Show us your pedalboard
Smart. Will have a think. I try to have the often-accessed pedals on the front row, but would be good to have the expression on the board.
