Ok, since the ratings are already 3 days late, I'll throw my rig into the ring.

 

new_pedalboard.jpg

 

535Q -> SynthWah -> HR2 -> PS3 -> DL4 -> Holy Grail -> MM4

 

Yes I know there's no dirt. Because I DON'T PLAY GUITAR THROUGH IT!! :mad: I play trumpet through this shiznit, ok?? Deal with it :p

 

yes, i know that means i get an automatic -1 on the rating :(

 

Style? Indofunk. That's right.

well i haven't been playing to long but i like my tone so far.

Fender Hot rod deville 410

Tonebone Hot British

Schecter Gryphon w/ new SD JB and Jazz pick ups

And hopefully soon a American Deluxe Strat and some sort of wah pedal. I also plan to rebias and retube my Deville (once i figure out how)

 

 

hmmm... what style? not sure about the guitar as I don't have a visual in my head... but what I liked was how you said "I like my toen so far" which goes a long way [am I right guys... seriously!]

I don't much care for ToneBone stuff... but I would give in a rating in the plus side as long as you didn't play blues rock... if you are playing blues rock... all you need is a bad monkey... so you might have overpaid, but again, I don't knw your style [i imagine that I'll refernce that line a lot... no offense... but seriously,, that Clapton-esque blue rock is not something you have to throw cash at to have a good live sound for...]

 

 

if i was to rate the rig for my style... it would be in the nagative range... but for you, I'll rate you in the positive range...

here's my stuff

nice arangement of stuff... i assume that is an analog arion delay... what style of music? I guess either way this is a verstile rig pedal wise... i don't much care for the cost/value of the strobostomp... but hey, a girlfriend/significant other may have bought it for you... so who am I to say... the polychorus if TB'ed is probably the chorus pedal I would own if I ever used greatly/or really liked chorus... nice choice there.... I assume the orange pedal is the amp's channel switcher? i guess i didn't realize that orange amps had the clean/dirty optuon... but which amp are you using if that is a smaller amp in teh 2nd pic? bass amp maybe? I don't like tele's with small headstocks (or any guitar with small headstocks for that matter) so I would ditch that if it were my rig... but seems to work well... I would probably swap necks on the SG and the tele :p. .. overall, I would play your rig... so I rate it in the positive side...

into this:




I play rock and country

why the amp choice? I guess I have only heard over midd'ed Riveras playing Iron Madien riffs... are they decent clean amps too? overall you pretty much got you style and ... so positive for you man. I would hate that rig for myself as I don't have use for a compressor in my rig/style... but nice delay choice... I hope it continues to work out for ya! something about the guitar in description is great, but visually not my cup o'tea...

Thanks. I play all kinds of rock from classic to postmodern experimental. The delay is indeed an Arion SAD-1. I bought the strobostomp myself and I'm glad I did. The polychorus is TB'd. The orange white box is a channel switcher. I don't really use the Orange at home, I use the small amp, which is a '64 Fender Champ.

Style is primitive, but with delay pedals.
:)
Think Jad Fair with Jonny Greenwood on guitar.


(Unfortunately, the Philtre and Bitrman didn't make the cut on this pedalboard.)

 

1st ... nice on alternative materials on pedalbopard... cheap DIY ! ...

 

I would ditch that V stack and put those Alesis pedals up there in a TB loop box like a DBoggs microloooper... you have them, so why not.... i don't like the set up of the digitech pds100x pedals... i hate in/out volumes on non gain pedals... but the sound is in there!!!! no idea what amp you have... I would play your rig... if you added the alesis stuff... positive rating

 

next.

that's my gig gear..

2x12 cab g12h65

vox wah-sd1mij-ch1-de7

 

 

hmmm... never heard a guitar through a marshall bass head, so I will suspend my amp verdict... but personally I dislike Les Pauls very much... teh chorus debat eis above... but your rig looks very Rock/metal so I imagine that spacey textures aere not your chorus needs... decent delay... I hear great things about that pedal... I would not like to play your rig, but I'll note you as one hair micrometer to the positive side because I have no idea about your amp sound...

American Standard Strat going into homemade boost pedal (not shown) into pedalboard into Reverend Hellhound.


Pedalboard:

Zvex Machine

Moosapotamus Dirty Bird

Commonsound Atoner

Keeley Modded ProCo Rat

3ms Noise Swash

MJM Foxey Fuzz

Akai Headrush

Commonsound Stereo Bi-Phaseur Fleur

 

 

nice section... good support of Dann Green... I was one of teh 1st Atoner people back in teh day... but at the time it was like an 11 knob MXR blue box and not much more... I think they have been teweaked for more control... so I hope you get agood value on that... I didn't like the keeley rat at all... so that would be a subsitotion for me if i was to play your rig... you have the space, so maybe add another delay pedal... pre/post delays on some of those effects would provide some great sounds... amp is something I might change... I have not had good luck with reverd during demo-ing ... if you got everyuthing at a decent value and it sound sgreat... very positive rating from me...

I could not make out many of the pedals... but it looks like you have a grasp on a good direction... i would suggest getting some pedals that fill dual roles to help control the space take up and powering... but looks very verstile... i would need a manual to work it, but I am sure I could handle your rig... i feel compled to give you an I for incomplete... but that doesn't mean your rig is not looking good... just from your posts and gear lust sig... i think you are not where you want yet... but I am ready to rate it positive when it is done...
