My last board...
My latest incarnation for 2013. Without really planning it, it's kind of gone, well, you know, a bit.... Radioheady

Guitars Shergold, Charvel, Squier, Yamaha, Washburn Effects Loads Amps Marshall, Mesa, Ferrograph
Just dug out some old pics, and found this one of Buddy Millers Board, from a gig in Bristol.
Awesome sound he had.
I came by a bit of shelving so thought I'd knock myself up a second board for practicing at home through an amp, rather than using amp modelling on my PC. And this is what I got:
I think I might need to swap one of the fuzzes for an overdrive, but so far it's pretty good fun!
TC G System, Blackstar HT Metal and Mooer Green Mile. Two expression pedals out of shot for wah, volume or whammy. The TC does chorus, phaser, flange, compression, wah, auto wah, formant, pitchshift, octave, various delays, dual delays, reverbs, boosts, noisegate, tremelo, vibrato, and pretty much anything else except drives.

Lestful guitars in Mag's sale to clear space for new Gassage:- http://forum.musicradar.com/showthre...=1#post1452539
Plenty of bargains to be had.
So far so good, Fulltone Clyde --> Tc Polytune --> BB Preamp --> RC Booster --> Suhr Iso Boost. Just need a chorus and possibly a reverb and/or delay and I should be set
Mini-board underway, waiting for Fuel Tank Jr to fit in the top right, hoping the straight connectors will be reliabl;e but starting to doubt it!
That's great! What are the little jack connectors? I have regular right-angle ones and they add almost another pedal's width to the Mooers.Originally Posted by downbytheriver

They look a lot like this!
Sadly they came from a "lying around for 20 or 30 years" box so I have no idea if they are available.
How about these? They look pretty similar... On The Bay
Also, they are such a rigid connection that I am worried that it will be unreliable in use, so I am thinking of mounting the top three and the left hand pair on the bottom onto pieces of ply using those bicycle chain link thingies to reduce movement - anybody tried mounting Mooers with them, or know where to get them? The ply will bring the Mooers up to the same level as the EP booster too.
Once that is reliably mounted and the power is sorted I am going to get an ali plate made to cover the whole lot with just the pedals showing through. Might as well do it right!

Oh, those - I have a couple of those knocking around from when i first got into pedals! Are they ok with Mooers? I soon stopped using them coz the pedal sides weren't at 90 degrees, so they didn't sit flush on the floor.
I think I'd be worried that the boards in something like Mooers might be susceptible to stresses from these things.
I was more interested in the little round plugs with the thin wire connectors. They look quite compact.
