old man sets up old man pedalboard.

haha... well.. id intended to add verb, but yknow.. no. i dont want more cables

kinda perfect- bogner/fendery classic grind from wessex, plexi on 11 from lagrange, something to pummel the front end of both from the micro amp and get my strat up to gain levels of my other two teles. and a tuner. plus a solo boost on the lagrange for the solos i dont take.

my little ernie ball power supply fits great down under my $18 steel 15" pedalboard and it has a hilarious little pedal purse to sling it all in. i feel downright with it.

im totally not, and no post rock will be even intimated. but it is nice to not chase pedals around the floor for a change, and also just to have a decently flexible front end in case i cant use my own amp- so mission accomplished!

Nice! And btw, post-rock the ol’school way was never about pedal abundance.

oh man.. not even a subtle dig meant- i just meant that i dont have any delays or verbs its one tiny caveman step beyond guitar/cable/amp

 

[FuzzyAce]

I like it, simplicity can be a good thing!

 

[metropolis_4]

Nice!

That approach of having 1 light drive, 1 heavier drive, 1 boost to push both harder has become my go-to configuration for drives

 

[sleewell]

Very nice, looks just about perfect


That's the size board im using now too



It is kinda funny being on forums with y'all for so long now, guess were all old now hahaha

its really cool to have big grainy chonky gain and super tight gravelly grit with tons of top end AND the boost. i cant say it does EVERYTHING... but it does everything i NEED it to. marshalls sound great backed off- but they ring. sometimes i dont want that, which is why i love hiwatts and fenders. but until i find something as dynamic as that ... two drives and a boost itll be

this rig is a perfect front end that gets along with everything and sure helps when i cant open up my mesa.. a cold mark is a sad mark.

oh snap. this rig went to practice this afternoon and what a great setup. neither of these pedals has seen too much actual LOUD time yet.. so it was a good trial run. i brought just my mesa iib combo and ran it pretty clean.

i spent most of my time using the wessex- which at home sounded not gainy enough. at practice- perfect and crazy note definition, great texture

the lagrange sounded TOO gainy. dialed it back- but its still a great rock tone. By the end id throttled it way back- that ones gonna take some more work to get where i want it and ive only had it a coupla weeks.

all told- hell yeah. the silly little cordura pouch was awesome


i dig it!

oh... ok... then all is lost and you are doomed
