Adventures in pedalboard building

[metropolis_4]

I found this thing buried in a drawer. It’s a passive volume knob I bought once to control my monitor feed level from a modeler.

I might leave it on here. Kind of handy to use as an additional volume control that is more granular than the amp volume control for times I’ll need to really bring volume down low

My A# is apparently sharp

Saw this and thought of you, Met. Kind of shocking they can incorporate a
mechanical spring in something that small.

Danelectro Spring King Junior Review

Small spring, big splash—a pedal reverb that oozes surfy ambience and authenticity.

^Dumb as nails names and cheap turd on your board shaming aside; the Dano food series of pedals (other than the dirt boxes) had some KILLER sounds in the lineup. I would absolutely trust really any of their pedals to do a job stellarly in most cases.

Holy god this thing is like the size of a forearm

That is pretty cool! Definitely not the drippy tank sort of spring, but it’s a cool sound. I like it

Lucky for me I’m all for having cheap turds that bring shame on my board

I have the Hash Browns flanger. It's great. The tremolo is also phenomenal imo.

Them Danos are making me hungry!

I had the Tuna Melt Trem on my Smiths/Moz board for a couple years, until about a month after I cracked the plastic case and could no longer activate the effect. That thing NAILED the swampy trem on How Soon as Now!

These looked fun. I’ve never done MXR modulation before so thought I’d give it a try

Any idea what that was based on? I wish you could have done a tap tempo with it

Holy god this thing is like the size of a forearm

"...Jack White's board..."

"I have a stapler that cost $60."

(I can't find the bit about the forearm. But now I want a POG III. )

That's the problem with the Dano effects - the enclosures aren't built to last, they're oddly shaped, and the jacks are positioned poorly. But they sound great for the money!

Video timestamp fixed for maximum forearm

YOU SEE MBENIGNI; IT'S THE DANELECTRO REVERB THAT IS SOMEHOW THE SIZE OF A SMALL FOREARM

 

[JiveTurkey]

I'm glad I fixed the timestamp and it reverted back to no time stamp

Dude. I watched her cradle that thing in her arms like 5 times. For some unholy reason I needed one of them to actually say, "Holy god this thing is like the size of a forearm."

Flanger is good!

I love flanger.

I’m a sucker for that ‘80s thing where you run a Strat in position #2 -> compressor -> clean amp, and play palm muted single notes and double stops. I love that sound with a flanger added to it!
