What? I'm lazy ok!

To give jwar some credit, Velcro is always more expensive than I expect it to be. And weren't there other complaints you've grumbled about? Like it's real flexy or something?

Monochrome is addictive

It's not very well made honestly. I mean, he did his best, but if I had to do it over again, I definitely would not go that route. The in and out jacks move all the time because they are not tightly secured, there is not center support (even though I've seen him create boards with them and I did suggest it), the velcro that's on this is nice looking but it not industrial for sure, there's several other things that bother me, but it's ok for the cheap price I paid. Ultimately, if I had a nice table saw, I'd just make my own.

If I was rocking that many stomps, I'd try and figure out a way of having a two-board system that you could stack on top of each other for transporting. I know you're a strong dood and iirc your board doesn't get moved much but it's something I think about when I see big boards.

Until the Boneshaker arrives (or the whim to swap something out strikes):

I bought another one already.


Re-board weight. It's manageable but a royal pain I'd assume if I gigged.


Most likely if I were to ever want to gig (LOL), I'd go almost pedal-less. That seems sad but most geetar players around here don't appreciate my massive dirt and modulation use.

Man, you just need to write/find a band with the kind of songs where it works!

God I wish.

If only some ILF folks lived close by.

Makes me want to fucking move just to have more friends.



Oh and CK3 your board is killer!

Babes, thats hot.
You using the 4 track for looping or are you on the tape fuzz bandwagon?

Reminds of Amulets' pedalboard. But he uses it to play prerecorded tape loops.

Just tossed this together, mostly for synth-related activities. Very pleased with the outcomes so far!
