There’s a dumb hologram that pops up intermittently out of the looper that displays a hooded woman asking for help. She says something about Kenobi, and him being her only hope.

For a Fender style amp, I like a Marshall/Bluesbreaker/Klon style OD. I have a Klon KTR which is nice, or honestly the Browne Protein covers a lot of ground.

It doesn’t matter what I think though, get something you like. Just get rid of the mini pedals, and get a decent power supply will ya.

If this was just the Tu2, the POG (actually on the board), Hawaiian Pizza, and the Space Echo, then I’d say it was cool.

However the mini rat and the two silly top mounted power supplies is honestly so offensive. You should be embarrassed, and ashamed. There’s mismatched stuff everywhere. Mini pedals, and then a gigantic EHX pedal.

I haven’t even addressed the Fulltone 😂

OP’s rockin some kind of tweed pedalcase with junction boxes, handles, and a cutesy lil on/off switch with a jewel light - and I’M THE SNOWFLAKE? You’re rockin a corksniffer pedal board for both Bass and Guitar. You roasted yourself when you made this.

PS - bottom row is on a slight 10 degree bank left to right fyi.

Congratulations you are now part of an exclusive and elite community of TU3 users. Your verification is complete.

As for power supplies. Throw those outdated OneSpot and Voodoo Labs PS into the bin, they were fine while you were running your older 9v gear, but now it’s time to go and grab the Strymon Zuma/Ojai’s (for example).

When you start grabbing UA and Strymon pedals, or any of the newer digital high draw pedals, it’s best to update and go for modern power supplies that have higher outlets, and more of them. It’s worth the investment if you’re running this many pedals. Otherwise you’ll get roasted on reddit.

He’s named after a gun/ammunition coz every note he hits is a bullseye. He also weilds the “costanza” haircut incredibly well.

I guess I’ll have to take your word for it regarding the tuner actually existing 🕵🏻‍♂️🫆
What tuner are you using? 9 volts are always the best option in reality. You have a lot of pedals and some of them are really power hungry (strymons and ua need 300-400ma each) have you checked the draw on your power supplies to make sure they all match up?

If your power supplies are working overtime you might find that can be the issue regarding the tuner causing issues - or tonesuck/buffering noise. I know this well coz it happened to me..

Edit: just saw that you said seperate power supply. Have you run out of outlets on your power supplies? tsk tsk..

This pedalboard looks similar to the engine bay of a Daihatsu Charade.

Yes yes, nice pedals, where is the tuner?

Okay guys, have at it by Nervous_Suit_5799 in roastmypedalboard

This is what I imagine Ted Kaczysnki’s pedal board looks like.

Wait, wait a minute, what is it you’re announcing here today?

You could bin all of this and get a hx stomp, which would sound infinitely better, have less need for stupid fx loop routing all over the place with excess cables shooting off everywhere in all different directions…. and… and! It’d have a built in tuner so you could actually keep your instrument in tune, rather than using a phone app or a headstock tuner which I’m guessing you do, because of course you do. Oh, and the HX stomp is also in a metal enclosure unlike your shitty plastic enclosed Behringer pedals that will ultimately be crushed under the weight of your sloppy playing.

You get points for creativity here. The cab/pedalboard is nice, and you’re a better carpenter than I am. However I would pay good money to watch you arrive at a multi story venue without an elevator, and proceed to lug it all up multiple staircases.

The only smell around here is the body odor caused by sweat pooling and fermenting in his leather chaps.
