Here's the latest on my recent acquisitions of guitars and effects pedals. About a week ago I bought an Epiphone Dot Studio for a smashing deal. Unfortunately it had a couple of dents in the body. One more noticeable than the other. As you can see here, by the bridge:
Not too bad though for the price I paid for the guitar. I decided to go ahead and switch the knobs that it came with. I prefer the "tophat" knob over the ones that the Dot originally comes with. Here you can see the new knobs:
As far as effects pedals go, I've added 3 to my collection within the past month. Two of them are Behringer pedals. The Super Octaver SO400 and the Bass Limiter/Enhancer BLE400. I also snagged a Stupid Deal of the Day over at Musician'sFriend.com - an Akai Professional Drive 3 Overdrive pedal. So the problem now is that my current pedalboard made from an IKEA GORM shelf is full. I don't have room for these new pedals. So I'm planning to add another level to the pedalboard. Here's what I'm thinking:
So the Digitech RP200 is going to go on the board more or less just to add space so it doesn't look too empty. Once I get more pedals, that will be the first to go. These pictures present the idea I have for my pedalboard but I will put it together properly within the next few weeks.
So the pedal order I'm thinking of arranging will be the following:
Starting with the first in line:
-Dunlop Crybaby Wah
-MXR Super Comp
-Behringer Bass Limiter/Enhancer BLE400
-Behringer Super Octaver SO400
-Akai Professional Drive 3 Overdrive
-EHX Big Muff Pi (Russian Made)
-Boss DS-1 Distortion
-Boss PH-2 Super Phaser
-Boss TR-2 Tremolo
-Behringer VM1 Vintage Time Machine (analog delay)
-Line 6 DL4 Delay Modeler (digital delay)
-TC Electronic Hall of Fame Reverb
-Volume/Wah pedal
-Digitech JamMan (loop station)
Not sure where to put the Digitech RP200 in the line up. Any suggestions? Or any other suggestions as to switching up the current pedal order??
looks good. I am thinking about doing the same 2 level board made with gorm shelves.
