Members bkd Posted December 20, 2011 Members Share Posted December 20, 2011 Dudes, if I can pull off cramming all this stuff on my board, I'll be so stoked. The little space above the RC3 is for a footswitch I'm going to build for looping. New official board pic in the next few days or so Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members bkd Posted December 20, 2011 Members Share Posted December 20, 2011 ^ Thanks! It wasn't planned at all, but just happened to work like that with the signal chain and layout. I got away with adding the looper/footswitch without having to remove anything, although I don't think I'll be able to close the pedalboard with the lid haha. I just realized if the Titan had side-mounted jacks, this setup wouldn't work. You're the man Flo! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members fetch Posted December 21, 2011 Members Share Posted December 21, 2011 I'd like to buy a Space to replace the GK3 on the board now that I don't have anything to control. I'm wanting to demote the GK3 to a noise board I'm putting together and maybe couple that with a Moog Ring Mod Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Tremster Posted December 21, 2011 Members Share Posted December 21, 2011 Originally Posted by IRG Nice board here.

Here's your late answer, sorry about that. The LTD SR and the Mantra are not alike in any way but complement each other really well. The Barber has low gain, of course, but such a nice musical voice to it, not too crunchy and aggressive but also not too smooth and polished. I had the regular LTD before and it had a hair too many mids, was a little darker. This one doesn't change your base tone at all. Of the Mantra I also had the regular version before which had just too much gain for my liking, so I got the low-gain mod (the toggle between the pots). It is really crunchy and dirty and very uncompressed, but the regular version started at about the max end of my gain range, and can be quite hissy the more you turn it up. The low gain version gives me that raunchiness as well but at lower gain settings, and in that range is also completely noise-free. It may be dirty but you can still tell your guitar and amp. And having the low/high-gain toggle adds a ton of versatility, so I can still let it rip when necessary. I have the higher gain before the lower gain pedal now, after some trying around, so that the dirtier one pushes the amp-like one, or I use the Barber as the quasi master volume for the Mantra. Great pedals! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Tremster Posted December 21, 2011 Members Share Posted December 21, 2011 Originally Posted by pedrozepelim Please tells us about the Rook! Also what amp are you using?

For Amps I use a Framus Ruby Riot that I had modded by German tech Tonehunter to be a classic AC30. The clean channel was already gorgeous before, the lead channel sucked big time before, way too much gain, way too little character. The clean channel is still the same, the lead now is warm crunchy Vox overdrive. After that experience I also had them mod my Peavey Classic 30, which was only my home practice amp. After, it became just a great shimmery Fenderish amp with headroom, I use it more than the Framus these days. Sometimes I use both simultaneously, hence the Radial Bigshot switcher. Also have a Blackheart Little Giant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's 20 $ more than the regular one, but well worth it. Also see this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks dude. Originally Posted by fruvai How are you liking the HBOD? I really dig it. I've only had it for two days but so far so good. I think it works best stacked with another pedal be it a compressor or another OD. That was through my Fendery amps. Then I plugged it into my Pathfinder and I can't wait till my Mesa Lonestar Special arrives so I can try the HBOD as that'll be the only pedal I own that I haven't run through that amp (understandably as I got it new) but needless to say I am excite to hear the results given my experiences with the Pathfinder+HBOD.

Members nomenclature Posted December 22, 2011 Members Share Posted December 22, 2011 Getting to know the Unpleasant Surprise tonight... The problem with having a "finished" board, with everything perfectly wired, built in power and whatnot, it it's a pain in the ass to test new things with your set chain, it's only easy to drop {censored} in front or behind. it's also good though, the U.S. is the only thing I bought this year, and making it hard to swap {censored} around means less {censored}ing with pedals and more playing. *Oh yeah, I downsized by 3-4 pedals some time ago.

Members nomenclature Posted December 22, 2011 Members Share Posted December 22, 2011 MBP? I'm pretty sure I don't know what that is so I'm going to have to say no...
