Joined: December 2006 Posts: 6992 Location: Jet City | I've been gettin' the itch again. I can't help myself. I think I'm gonna start looking to join or start a band. I got my last necessity finished with some help on the last key pieces from Stephen. I did find out a bunch of my line noise was coming from my old Digitech PDS 1002 diigital delay. I've had it for 20+ years, I guess it was time. Until I can get what I want, the POS that's there will just have to work. For those who care, here's the signal chain: Electric Guitar --> Old pre-Dunlop Crybaby --> Custom Shop Fulltone Full Drive 2 --> Vintage MIJ Pearl Chorus, then Flange, then Phaser --> Ernie Ball Jr Volume --> Cheap ass digital delay --> Amp The RC-20XL looper is stand alone and the acoustic guitar is plugged into it. It can be swapped into the end of the chain with a simple cable. I may add a compressor to the acoustic chain as well. The acoustic usually just uses the Roland's built in effects. Oh, on the Furman pedal board, I took a 1x6 and cut it into 3 pieces. One length at 8", and two at 4" so I could do various lengths in back if the setup changes in the future (right now, all 16" are in line back there). Stuck velcro hooks on the bottom of the blocks, and the furry part up top. Then made a "shelf" with them on the back row as I was finding it awkward to hit the buttons in back with the knobs of the front row pedals. I'm ready to go now. Any bands needing a guitar player/singer? | ||
