Pedalboard!

I love productive days, Champ working and I built myself a pedalboard. It's made out of a door and some old carpet, I'm fucking resourceful.
Since I'm not gigging or anything it doesn't have to be super portable, it's more for organisation than anything else.

I'm really glad you got your champ working. New power tube and it fired right up?

Looks immense.

Tiny Terrors look so beautiful on those cabs. They're pricey, but it's fucking worth it for that view.

I had some of those, they have a tendency to die and make you think your pedals are fucked.

Yep, I bought them ages ago but never had a use for them really. I'll order some of those venom adders though.

James, can you give me the name of that ebay shop selling the cables?

Yeah I'll check it out. The orange colour I had was the cheapest they did, but you can get quite a few different colours or just standard black. I'll go find it now.

Shop link
Link to the same but in yellow

It looks like they just buy a load of van damme cable and neutrix connectors and then make them up to sell on ebay. The Neutrix standard range is what I have. I'm fairly sure I paid £6 each for two orange cables, and then £2 for postage (from memory you pay their standard postage fee no matter how many you order)

If you go to the neutrix standard section, then sort by price, they have quite a few at £5.595 for a 3m cable. I only had the option of orange last time. The colour doesn't represent any difference in spec, just an aesthetic thing.

Thanks for that. Just saved me a fucking fortune.

They're brilliant leads. and the jacks unscrew so you can shorten the leads or fix them if they ever break should you want to.

Nah, I bought the powerdrive a while ago after Mike's demo.

I love the RF-1, really lush reverb and the spriing modes are awesome. I'll do a demo later since I've got nothing to do.

The LPB-1 is one of those pedal that after you play with it on for a while when you turn it off you just want to turn it right back on afterwards, it adds some tasty bass.
