Downsized my pedal board!

[Jagg76]

Well, I had gotten up to 11 pedals on my pedal board at one point. Downsized to 9...8...and now 6! Here's my current chain. Sounds great!

TU-3 -> Diamond CPR-1 -> Wampler Hot Wired -> MXR 6-band EQ -> Boss DD-7 - TC Electronics Spark Boost.

This post is nothing with no PICS!!!

Sounds pretty good (conceptually).

Do you need the 6 band EQ? They can be noise monsters.

What amp are you using? Can the tone controls on the amp bring the tone?

Just asking man. The board sounds very nice.

Less is more, for me anyway.

I probably have around 100 pedals and I never have more than 7 or 8 on my board at any time.

I like a pedalboard with 6 pedals.It is a pitty that Pedaltrain doesn't have a pedalboard for 6 Boss sized pedals. I have also a pedalboard with 6 pedals. It is homemade.

Why do you have so many pedals? How do you decide which one to use? I often cannot decide if and how I shall use a overdrive pedal for rhythm. There are already so many options:

- no pedal at all, use the overdrive of the amp
- overdrive of the amp in combination with the volume knob of the guitar
- use the overdrive pedal as a boost to put the amp into overdrive
- use the overdrive pedal with the gain knob of the pedal
- combination of the mentioned options

Maybe you need to look for a nice amp.
Nevertheless I also love pedals.

Good on you! Less is certainly more!! I have always been a minimalist. I went from a Pedaltrain mini to a nano:

TC tuner >> EWS Brute Drive >> EWS Arion Stereo Chorus

I sometimes add a looper but these 3 pedals are all I need really...

I've never been big on pedals, has a few I'd use occasionally. I've started using them a little more, but my max is 8, and will probably end up as 6. That's a good number!

Cool. I use a Hot Wired and Polytune mini. That's actually my whole board currently. I downsized significantly as well.

My wife made this for me. I needed a small pedalboard for my "Old School" Keeley pedals. It's actually an awesome board. I got an old cassette case from the Goodwill store.
