Around 60, but I don't gig. 10 or so are on the chopping block but I'm too busy/lazy to keep updating FS posts. One of these 10 will be fodder for the BOTB 14 winner, but if they don't see this thread they won't know til I pm them for their address.

At least 100?

I could build a complete Fulltone, Barber, Lovepedal, EHX, Boss, Keeley, Digitech, MI Audio, Joyo, MXR board without any problems. These are the ones that where close, prolly 3/4 of them?

 

Some day I will pull out all the tube pedals, wah's and vibes and vintage stuff that's hidden away and get a more accurate photo.

I should also get all of my tube amps in the same photo, many/all are collecting dust like the '58 Dan Electro/Silvertone to the left and THD UniValve #65 and the dusty Fender amps below them

Thanx, many have gone full circle, the Keeley modded TS9 is back (digging the mids hump right now) if I wanted pure clean gain without altering my sound I would use a Fulltone Full-Drive 2, The Keeley modded Boss Super Overdrive SD-1 is back because I went though 5 year period where I had No buffer bypassed pedals in my chain, but that's over. The Keeley Comp is back. The Cream Lovepedal Eternity has been on board since it showed up. KR Mega Vibe goes but always ends up back on the board, the Fulltone PlimSoul is currently back, the Clark Gainster is arm wrestling the Barber LTD for a spot, I stack/cascade multiple OD's, and always have many forms of dirt on my board because it really is all about stuffing the cat through the keyhole. It doesn't matter what amp I am using..I keep a Fulltone Choralflange in the amps effect loop, always on Chorus, mix knob on full, delay time maxed, depth maxed, speed slow as it will go, band switch set to narrow, I never shut it off, it is the most musical chorus I have ever owned and is a big part of my sound, I chose it over the Boss CE-1 Waffle Pan and the TC Electronics SCF (you can spot it in the top/center of the photo) I used an Ibanez CS9 before the CF. And I haven't used a wah in ages but when I do it's a Fulltone Clyde Deluxe.

 

I could have perfection and I would take it off the board and put it in the corner, only to rediscover it 2 years down the road. One of the things that drew me to the electric guitar in the late 60's was...if you couldn't play just turn it up, well, that and the way pedals could totally change the sound with just a stomp. I really do enjoy pedals.

 

If you look on the board you can see that Saturday I was having "Dirt Auditions" lots of OD's (9 total), that was when I rediscovered the TS9. I never sell one pedal to get another because I'm sure I have an amp that will work good with that pedal.

I have around 60 store bought pedals at the moment. Maybe 10 I've built myself. I may have another dozen that I've retired or need restoration. I do have several doubles from when I was working with two guitarists and wanted both guitars to have similar sounds. I have at least 10 different preamp/rack effect units which I been using more lately.
