In 2024 I may replace the Cool Cat with another chorus, and put together one or two other boards from my spare pedals: Danelectro Dan-echo and Fab Tone, Boss BD-2, SD-1, and DS-1, TC Ditto).

    Good stuff! I love to see the different directions everyone goes in on their journey for tone. Also I appreciate the general organization, which I know from experience takes way more time than we want to admit. I also never routed my cables underneath since I had a flat board, but it was never as clean as yours. After using my board I feel like an angled setup is way more practical to have since the front and back row can be on a different plane which makes fumbling around for the right switch just a tad easier, it looks like you kind of have that going by can’t tell.

    Since you said you might make another board I figured I’d let you know I’m selling some of my pedals right now. I have a TC Electronics Chorus, TC Electronics Reverb, MXR Delay w/ ring mod, MXR Dyna Compressor, Ernie Ball VP 6180, Dunlop Cry Baby Wah, and Boss DS-1 Keeley Mod. If you want any of them let me know!

    Thanks for sharing your rig. Rock on!

      I’m under an embargo at the moment! 😂 How has your board changed this year?

        Huge. But in a controversial way… I went with a Line 6 Helix. Currently wrangling the beast and comparing to my old setup. I think there’s a ton of potential but you have to be okay getting flooded with options and in that whirlwind maintain good discipline to still work towards your goals. Luckily I’ve been really enjoying the process and the tone I’m able to get with it!

          I had a Zoom 9000 back in 94/95 timeframe. And yeah I remember it being a giant slog to create each patch/bank. But it was great for managing a setlist!
