Think I've finally got this where I want it!

Guitar> M9 (Tuner, Noise Gate, Comp, Looper)> Tuner (may swap out for pitchfork, idk)> Faye Sing B> Eternal (Acapulco Gold split in 1/2, in LS-2 Loop)> DML10 (Chorus/Flange)> Life Pedal Clone (clean blend, Silicone/Op-Amp/LED Clipping, 2 Bass boosts, rangemaster style boost)> feT (premap)> Tensor> DD-500> Flint> Quilter (power amp).

Spent wayyyy too much $$$ on the INFANEM but it's worth it tbqh- I've never heard a phaser this clean and versatile; It's got nothing but sweet spots and is so cleverly designed.

M9's looper is zany good- DL4 on steroids and it can run 3 fx while you use it. I need to get some expression pedals to control the overdub and looper volume and turn it into the texture/soundscape powerhouse it's meant to be.

Depending on the guitar and tuning, this thing goes between droning doom and really chimey indie pop. If it wasn't already given away by everything in the photo, the big influences here are Jenn Wasner, Ed O'Brien, Emma Ruth Rundle, and Billy Corgan('s guitar playing only and nothing else about him at all).

How's the faye sing? also who make the anodized jazzy bridge looks cool

we're just getting started, hard to say where it ends up musically speaking

just got the kingsley for a monster deal, leaving both the OD and boost channels always on, low gain, riding the volume on a schecter 335 in mid position with neck coil tapped to single coil

all super low gain stuff
i have so many low/medium gain overdrives, it is legit gross. i even resent some of them for still being in my residence, even though they sound good

amp is a '66 ampeg reverberocket II with a reconed Rola alnico speaker

beano boost always on
timmy low gain
tube king a little more gain
the big ugly one on the upper left is a buffalo germanium fuzz, is a fuzz face circuit (that likes buffers just fine), if i want to do something fuzzy it has a bias, pregain, and gain up on top. run the wah in front of it,

two tube od's is so baller

haha it is pretty ridiculous.. i just put it on friday, ive never had a tube driver but it sounds exactly like all the demos ive heard.. im limited to the size of the board so i will have to make some decisions about overdrives and the tube king's huge ass will probably not make the cut

i saw a dude over at the blues lawyer forum say he had 10 preamp tubes total on his board... actually it might have been even more than 10

i have a barber LTD v1 i really like, they are super cheap and they are awesome underrated low-to-medium gain OD's. i just got a 2nd one for $50 + 5 altho admittedly that is a rare price

Or the egg man?

Being a pig man is a lofty, some say CRAZY life goal.....

I’ve got a cute little mini board ready to go for the doom thing I’m jamming with but I REFUSE to post a pic until my Meatbox shows up. Hopefully this week.

I REFUSE!!!!

For the last few days I've started missing my DD-20,which was my first delay. That board isn't helping.

Here's a self portrait I drew on the tracking app. I'm hoping Monday is a "Meatbox Monday".

Its the first and only delay pedal I've ever bought. I get tempted by others often but the combination of simplicity and versatility can't really be matched. It's really easy to use live at shows which is one of the most important things for me (not lately I guess though )

Back to basics. Just have to power everything up. Might add another micro pedal, to cover the glory hole in de centre of my humble diy board.

Every time I think I need a Fancy pedal board I look at this and go

Such a stellar collect of sounds - I have major Gas for the Nemesis Delay. Curious to know what your thoughts are on Op Amp Big Muff

Thanks!

Yeah, as much as I like to think I need a ton of pedals at my feet, I probably just don't have the creativity or talent to make good use of something that's not a dirt pedal, a delay, or a no frills modulation pedal. Less option anxiety, less shit that can break, less impedance/noise/power/whatever issues to worry about. Not to mension my big board weighs a ton, and barely fits in my car when I've also got my half stack and two guitars with me.

The Op Amp muff kinda fits the same"less is more approach" I guess. The love/hate thing I had with muffs was mainly about trying to make the muff do stuff it's not made for (i.e. cutting through a mix, and sounding open and clear and super gainy at the same time). So after trying half a dozen or so boutique/vintage muffs, I made my peace with the big muff and found out I don't even need a full eq or "pre-gain" control or any other bells and wistles. Op Amp, Triangle, Ram's head, Russian...that whole line of ehx "reissues" is ligit imo. The Op Amp version with the gain dimed and the tone switched off just stuck out for me. Classic muff tones, but without the ice picky grainy character of the NYC version or the overbearing boomyness of a Sovtek muff. Also sounds awesome with the gain at around 2 o'clock, with a more bass heavy overdrive behind it.

Really impressed with the Nemesis. My main worry was that the user interface and the Neuro app would be too complicated and intimidating. I was a bit suspicious, a pedal so small with that many sounds and parameters...Just seemed too good to be true, it HAD to be a nightmare to tweak and save presets. But it's surprisingly intiutive to mess with, and the different sounds just ticked all my VERY particular boxes, stuff I'd otherwhise need 5 seperate delay pedals for. Tap tempo, Purty reverse, convincing tape/bbd emulation with lotsa tone tweaking options, clear digital delay, sweep delay similar to that of the DL4, a non-cheesy shimmer'ish type mode,...And the filter took me by surprise. Somehow missed that when watching demos and reading reviews. Love the fixed wah type setting. Sooner or later I'll hook up an expression pedal and see how that works out. Filter + expression pedal is as close as I'll ever come to really liking wah, it's like the less douchy/campy/dadrock version of wah imo

Avoid it if you need a looper mode, or a p&w type of shimmer mode. Don't know how the Nemesis compares to a Timeline, Time Factor, DD500, Echo System,...But I kinda had to rule those out based in price and size.
