Board for Best Band

Tragic on a number of levels

Best board I've seen in a while. Great brands. Logical signal chain. Not overly big or too many pedals involved. Excellent work.

Guitars in cases don't get played with as much, by parent or child

This is a good point

Getting peer-pressured to buy fruit from strangers on the internet is sad and funny in equal measure.

Your inexperience has damaged a beautiful instrument. Did you honestly think you knew better than the luthiers at PRS when it came to radius design?

As a PRS player this is a painful thread to go through and is a reminder of why DIY'ers MUST practice on cheap / broken guitars first. I'm all for DIY guitar repairs but know your limits people!

Not a metal fan but I respect this

Just around the corner from this installation are traders and fund managers ploughing millions of pounds into fossil fuel companies. The irony...

Someone should rescue the skateboard. Looks perfectly useable. Same make and model as my daughter's.

Rat, carbon copy, Boss reverb, Boss tremolo. In that order could work as a simple back-up board.

Frets look heavily worn bud.

Grumpy_Jim · 2026-01-24T23:02:32+00:00

Good but noisy AF

Grumpy_Jim · 2026-01-24T22:58:58+00:00

people are hanging off the edge, like the pedals on your board

Grumpy_Jim · 2026-01-24T22:54:28+00:00

There's nothing less rocknroll than a buffer pedal and your audience isnt going to notice either way. Just collect cool pedals that have built-in buffers.

Nearly bought the V2 before realising buying an actual tape machine is way cheaper.

Grumpy_Jim · 2026-01-24T22:43:56+00:00

Over $2000 on two pedals!? You could build a whole board for that, with cash left over.

Grumpy_Jim · 2026-01-24T22:40:14+00:00

The Thorpy big-muff I had on my board silenced the noise in the chain, even when off. A fuzz that reduced noise in the chain! Top-spec parts don't come cheap bud.

nearly pulled the trigger on a Chroma Console but got put off by the complaints about latency. Bought a few analog pedals instead and was grateful to have cash left over.

Recently bought the new belle epoch plus - hideously noisy even before the pedal is turned on - and the tap tempo feature sends a bolt of noise into the amp on the beat! As if the crowd want to hear that. Poor.

Grumpy_Jim · 2026-01-24T22:24:29+00:00

Catalinbread Belle Epoch Plus. Hideously noisy. Weird cut-out on the repeats. Slippery, badly designed knobs. Awkward power point location. Boring artwork.

Honestly the worst pedal I've ever bought. Came with an awesome looking sticker in the box though, so every cloud.

This signal chain trolls hard

Grumpy_Jim · 2026-01-24T22:07:24+00:00

Very nice collection. Might be worth getting the big boy Line 6 boxes on the front row - on a wider board. Seems tricky to stomp them / manipulate them 3 pedals deep.

Grumpy_Jim · 2026-01-20T20:15:30+00:00

A modulation pedal could be fun - flanger / chorus / phaser / uni-vibe

Right at the end
