Pedal P*rn

OK, let’s see those pedals…

I saw a lot of posts about pedals and various questions, but I didn’t really find many showcasing your pedal boards.

So I’ll start with my current setup.
Forgive the wiring, I was just rearranging so I had to cut all my neat cable ties LOL.

If I could add anything it would be a MXR Octave, Pro Co Turbo Rat and the Justin Chancellor Cry Baby Wah (JCT95)

Obviously Justin Chancellor (TOOL) was my inspiration for picking up bass and building this pedal board.

What was the first clue? LOL

I have tried guitar many times over the years but it never stuck.
But I always used BOSS historically.

When picking up bass and doing some research I discovered MXR and how popular they are.

The compressor was my first (bass) pedal and I think it’s awesome.
Does an amazing job, but I use most of the pedals sparingly as not to cover my mistakes as I’m still a “noob”.

But of course I got sucked into “Gear Acquisition Syndrome”, and I had some money to burn, so I started building a pedal board.

Big love for several of your pedals, you have some GOATs on there, and I’ve had some of them myself. Bass Big Muff Pi is excellent, the Boss Tu-3 is an old standby (I had a Tu-2), and both the CEB and DD are classics. The BF-1 was the first effect we ever bought, so big nostalgia for that flanger. And meanwhile, all three of the MXR’s are bass standbys. Nice solid selection. Needs a reverb though :slight_smile:

Also try running the Big Muff into the CEB-3 instead of vice versa, it’s just liquid metal at that point.

We do have a few pedal topics, this is the first IIRC:

In fact that is the way I have it, just my layout is odd HaHa.
The tuner goes to compressor on the top then it goes across the top row.
The big muff then goes to chorus and across bottom row.

These are all my pedals. I discovered that the combination of the sansamp and the darkglass works great. The sansamp has natural compression and an emphasis on bass which works great in clean settings but blended 50% with the Darkglass which has little bass and some modulation. I use the headphone amp together with the darkglass to practice silently other than in my home office. Cheers.

I can’t really say I have used other chorus pedals but this one made me very happy since I got it.

I don’t play out much anymore, I’ve got hundreds of these damn stomp boxes laying around and a few multi units but the last time I played out was a New Years show… a distortion unit, old phase shifter, old bi-phase unit I found, and a vibrato were the only things I needed.

If you get this pedal, you will probably want to split your signal to not loose too much bass.
If you are after that Justin Chancellor tone, I can recommend the KHDK Abyss.

I love this topic! We need more pedal board pictures!

That MXR Bass Distortion is supposed to be the best mass produced Rat style pedal for bass. It was designed by this guy… fuzzrociouspedals.com

What do you think of it? The sound samples I’ve heard, I really liked.

Told @JerryP I was gonna get a picture of this up some time…crunchy stuff, swirly stuff, echo stuff, and stuff that that doesn’t want to fall in those categories. Got more at the house but this is what’s laying around the office

So. Many. Pedals.

I’ve recorded with most of them at one time or another except for a couple of the chorus pedals and some of the wah pedals. I’ll eventually get to them. Bought a boss me6 that has a highband flange and delay that I used on a recording I’m cleaning up tonight. Sounded just how I wanted it to.
