You should just get that thing it's own pedaltrain. It'd probably need what? A junior?

I want to sell my Goatkeeper for the gravitas, as the gravitas does everything I want the goatkeeper to do without the huge size...but it kinda hurts to sell a pedal I was so excited about when I got it. :cry: But I barely use it nowadays.

I've been dying for a GK for so long but the Gravitas basically killed that. It's tons cheaper and a third of the size. I would still really like a GK but have trouble justifying one with the Gravitas out.

What do people do if the last pedal in your chain has topmount jacks? Do you just run with the cable pointing off the top? What if your last pedal is bottom left on your board, but that puts the jack in a totally inconvenient place, right into the bottom of your second row of pedals?

I'm really excited about the idea of running a tiny cube pedal board, two bigger pedals on the bottom, three boss sized on the top. Set up, once some things arrive/get made will be (with planned signal chain numbered):
(4)RRR:(3)Bitquest:(1)Polytune
(5)Fuck:(2)Dirge Dual Pedal

The whole thing fits perfectly on an 11x11 square with just enough room that it looks clean and tight, but still a little room to not hit wrong buttons. The problem is I end at the Fuck, which will be right at the bottom of the RRR or a riser if I have one. I'm considering making a riser and putting a hardwired output in the riser that the Fuck could plug into. I'm not sure how hard this would be though. Probably not hard but Im not very good at building things.

Run a dedicated cable to a female jack on the side of your board?

Well that is a terribly simple solution... I didn't realize such a thing existed.

:lol: it's ok, it took me a while too, they are so handy, everyone should have one or two around, fixes any jack placement problems with tight boards with minimal effort.

And then building this is just sawing and screwing. Staining if I want to really get crazy. No wiring or anything like that, which I can see myself attempting but I could easily botch the whole thing
