Here's my latest set up. It's not a real pedal train. I used 1x2's, screwed them together, spray painted it black, added velcro, and viola!

I'm about 85% happy. I'd still change a few things but, over all I'm pretty satisfied.

mine V1.0, I just received my Pedaltrain Jr today, it's amazing! I will re-organize the power section (yeah, I put velcro on the ibanez wall-wart haha), the black one with the off-axis led (my drill is....:NUTS) is a loopbox with the aria phaseshifter in it. And oh, I play metal :dude

I gotta say, the best thing I ever did for my board was replace the crappy standard velco with 3M Dual Lock (http://www.itapestore.com/index.asp?PageAction=VIEWPROD&ProdID=19).. a little more expensive, but light years ahead of standard velcro.

It is really really strong. But if you change a lot of pedals I wouldn't use it. The problem is that the velcro itself is almost stronger than the glue that glues onto the board or pedals, so you will rip the velcro off the board quite often when changing. And I find it almost too strong!

But if you have a really firm setup that never changes, it sure is the way to go!

I assume you meant the way i have put the velcro on my board as it appears i have chosen the opposite way to everyone else. The reason i do this is because when i use pedals from the board on the floor the furry side grips surfaces better than the plastic side. As for buying/selling/trading i just remove the velcro before selling by heating the pedal up with a hair dryer and then cleaning the residue off with alcohol, same for buying really.

Hey, I do this too!
My reason is that pedals are way more stable with less movement.

My L.A. Sound Design pedalboard uses Dual Lock exclusively and it is terrific-incredibly strong. Pro stuff not the cheap amateur velcro. It also does not leave any residue on pedals so you can sell a pedal that you remove from your board with no mess.

03-09-2009, 08:05 PM
Thanks, wildstar. I play mostly heavy stuff, from 80s metal through to Black Metal and everything in between.. 95% of the time I'm running my dirt pedals, so I don't play clean that often..

The metal core, since you asked, is GREAT! I wasn't sure if I'd like it- I used to have a Metal Muff [the top boost version] and I didn't like it at all. The Satchurator, with an EQ after it, gets me about 90% of my distortion sounds, but when I want to really have well defined, tight chug chug stuff, the metal core is great for this.. really tight, heavy, well defined metal distortion. Not as midrangey/thrash as the Metal Zone, more beefy.

Thanks for the info! Sounds like I might really dig it. Do you have any recordings of it in use? The YouTube stuff I've found has been... uninformative, to be polite.

"well defined, tight chug chug stuff... beefy" is what I'm looking for to complement my Direct Drive for layering heavy tracks.

How's the 3M better? I've been curious about it myself...

I bought some of that velcro wal-mart carries in the craft section. It's two inches wide. You get 15 feet for $20. It has great adhesive and the velcro is the perfect amount of strength. I can turn my board upside down and shake it without pedals coming off, but at the same time I don't have to fight with it to get pedals off.

Turiguiliano-David and Martin used Mogami and a combo of different Switchcraft and Neutrik ends, I believe. Here is the thread with pics. Since it was taken I have replaced the Hartman fuzz with a Durham Crazy Horse, the Lil China COT with an original (#4) COT from the first run and the Smoky Signal is gone, replaced with an XTS Precision Multi-Drive:

Even with the dual lock, all you need is an old credit card or membership card to slide underneath and break the connection. Any pedal will come off without strain to the velcro on your board.

did you try the fulltone OCD? I get a very tight and agressive sound with it in front of my marshall (the song on my myspace is a sd-1 in front of my amp, it sound way more agressive now with the OCD)

I find the opposite.. the glue on that stuff is SO strong- so long as you clean the area before putting it on, good luck getting the adhesive to come off. And I dont cover the ENTIRE pedal bottom with the dual lock, thats too much.. i put two strips, one on top and one on bottom, and that is more than enough to hold the pedals on. Then if you want to move them, its no problem getting them off manually.

You can cut it into smaller pieces, little strips at each corner. It's a lot easier to remove a pedal from the board, and easier to clean up when removing the Dual Lock itself. Larger pedals sometimes need full strips, (DMM, bigger Line 6 pedals, etc.).

You can buy little four packs of the clear kind at Target :) I recently emptied the stock at my local store... haha.

It's so strong... that you can lift your entire pedalboard with one pedal ...But don't hold me to that, some of you guys have very large boards ;)

For grind, the Sunface is the canvas and always on. For the flavor I stack a Rat for the industrial thrash or the Muff Diver Finale for relentless epic fuzz - the Rat and Muff CANNOT be on at the same time, as it seems to destroy itself in a very ugly way. All the modulation stuff is great (and kept out of the way with the keeley looper), the AD80 is clear, and the wah is very responsive clean and ridiculous with hair.

QUESTION: I just picked up an AD-80. What are you using to power it up? What kind of adaptor is needed? I'm trying to build a 'mini' board & the AD-80 is going to be the delay. It takes 18V tho'. What to do? Thanks!

Jahn
03-10-2009, 08:08 PM
I use two 9v snap adaptors and run them into two spots on the Pedal Power 2. The board has 8 spots, so it's 2 for the AD80, one for the looper LED, one for the wah, one RAT, one Sunface (i use a 9V snap here too) and one Muff. One open spot left.

First post...

I play Post-Punk (U2, Cure, Chameleons territory, but a little harder edged) so all that modulation and delay is pretty much necessary.

I might take the wah off the board and put a couple of dirt pedals (Keeley Rat 2 and a Dist + clone specifically) in it's place. Apart from that everything is pretty much settled.

BTW the Barber Dual Discrete has a Super Sport (think Rat with more bottom end) and another LTD SR for boosts with a little hair on it.

got any pics of:
-the back / the patchbay
- the output of the AC-2 (it seems wired up to... an output jack? otherwise you would have to unplug, each time you'd want to use the silver board, right?)
?

also, what's that button at the far right (near the PW-10) ?
is the silver pedal a vol.pedal?
and if you run your AC-2 into the fx-loop return, are you using a parallel loop ? because otherwise you'd mute the fx-send/preamp-section..

I'm curious: is that easier or harder to transport than a big board? I'm really thinking it's time to shelve my stuff in a rack. With a Lexicon G2 + R1 combo as the brains of the operation and a GCX unit for the pedals.

my experience is that it's harder, even a 4he/4u rack will weigh about as much as a mid-size board..
add to that the (protective casing + ) midi-controller AND the extra hook-up that's necessary..

but for flexibility and signal flow, nothing beats a well thought-out rack/pedalboard-combination..

my idea of rack setups that are a good compromise, is either
a small board (Midi-controller + wah + volume ) + small rack (MPX-1 with envelope filter/overdrive/distortion/compressor/vibe/octavia)
or a small'ish board (od/ds/comp/chorus-vibe/octavia + midi-controller) + smaller rack (MPX-1 with envelope filter)

even a separate 9,5" unit (like a Boss SE-70) was too cumbersome for my taste (what with the power supply and extra cables/hook-up)..

the MPX-g2 is a great machine, but you might want to go with the MPX-1 for mods/reverbs instead, it's less deep, so you can use analog pedals in a more shallow rack (which makes for better portability)..
IMHO, the G2 extra features are a (great sounding/really usable) compromis between a MPX-1 with a decent od/comp/envelope/vibe combo of pedals..)
a G2 with extra pedals would be a bit redundant (unless you really like the cool Jamman looper), but if you combine it with some analog drive pedals, it would be a really great setup in a small package..
I found the OD-section really great, but I'm a pedal snob I guess... (most people don't rate the OD's as high..)

The AC2 has a dummy jack in it, it's fed from a splitter (a 4 way splitter which also feeds the re-amping output). The pedal doesn't allow the original signal out due to the dummy jack being there, it runs to the silver board and then into the FX return of the amp.
The silver pedal is an earlyedition crybaby I modded.

Most of em were presents except the small stone tho.

I think I came across wrong. I meant you're doing better than I was with regards to gear choices at that age! Not quantity of gear or how you acquired it. All my early stuff were gifts as well.

But the gear I lusted after at age 13 has not stood the test of time. Yours will, I think!

Why'd you switch out those parts on the DS1 and the NS2? Just for looks?

Here's mine with a new amp.
Going to change the Behinger volume pedal to a Boss.. it creates noise at times (not constant).

I like to think of my rig as some of the best of JM's board (TS10, WH AP, T-Rex Replica, EHX POG), some of the best of Brad Paisley's board (Zendrive, WH AP), and a dash of Eric Johnson (fuzz, MXR Dyna Comp, TC Chorus+). It's more of a matter of all of my influences making their way into my setup.

Yeah, the the Signa can be very LOUD. Still, noise-wise it's probably the quietest overdrive I've ever played. It's smooth, yet uncompressed... it replaced my Fulldrive MOSFET, whose shrillness I never managed to tame (still, a great pedal at gig levels in its own right) The Signa is nothing short of awesome as a low-gainer... so much so I'm thinking of getting a second one.

Hey Grant,

Yessir, got a good listen indeed! I really enjoyed that pedal and found it to be super warm sounding. Very similar to my TTE, actually. Could get some great slap back or ambient sounds. Does it all well. Ontop of that, the modulation's great, if you're into that and the size is great!

I'm actually running a DC Brick. I have it mounted underneath, and mounted the ac adapter in line with the hole for the PP2 so a power cord can just plug right in. Its a standard heavy duty extension cable.

Updated my pedalboard :)


Ernie Ball volume to control feedback on the Memory Lane 2. (not shown)
Cry Baby 535q Wah
MXR Vintage Script Dynacomp
ZVex Jonny Octave - The internal trim pots are key.
MI Audio Neo Fuzz does the old pushed cracking speaker sound pretty well. It beats Fulltone 70 (not the 69), Death By Audio (had it). DBA isn't very uncontrollable live. The Neo Fuzz is very usable and flexible but doesn't do a heavy metal grind or a muff sound.
Fulltone OCD - Haven't found a good use for it besides a boost.
MXR EQ
Maxon PT-999 Phase Pedal
Boss Tremolo with volume mod. Want to replace it with a fulltone tremolo but not 100% sold on the fulltone as yet. I'm happy with the Boss (only for the tremolo).
Maxon CS9 Pro Chorus - Very warm sounding, lots of control and can do a good leslie impersonation.
Memory Lane 2 - If you use the expression pedals do not use the Boss EV-5. It has a 10k pot that adds a lot brightness. You need something with a 100k pot (Moogerfooger exp pedal) or 250k pot (Ernie Ball volume). I used to have 2 Malekko's (bright and dark). This is as good and with the delay time and feedback control via exp, it think its better than the upcoming Malekko 900 pedal that lacks expression control. Using the pedal in min feedback position adds an echo like sound thats pretty subtle - so you can go from no feedback to crazy oscillations.
Musicom MK2 programmable loop/switch. This is a godsend allow you to program pedal combinations.The delay and Wah are not controlled by the Musicom.



Comments/Suggestions welcome!

my first ever pedal board!

not as elaborate as some, but it should carry what i need for now!

its not just a board, for me, but a culmination of several months intense research , listening and budgeting after being away from pedals for about 10 years!

started off with a Gator board i found on Craigslist for about 60 ish i think. The handles on the side are drawer pulls from lowes and fit perfectly!

signal path is micro POG -> Tone Press -> RMC1 Wah -> Route 808 -> Seymour Duncan Twin Tube Classic ->Pitchblack Tuner ->Dimension C -> Boss SE50.

it s a nice sequencing of textures, as well as starting off with buffer signal then a couple of TB, then buffer, TB, etc. i might want to reverse the compressor and wah from its current order -- sounds better but the wah is too hot for the Barber; I'll have to find someone here to mod it.

tuner is near the end of the chain to act as mute, but before any modulation; the extra space between the dimension C and the SE50 is for the eagerly anticipated Fromel custom Seraph :)

i might build a tier for a planned effectors Musket and the current micro vibe, but the fuzz can wait and im getting better vibe throb out of the SE50.

Being my first ever pedal board, and completely lacking in mechanical, electrical and carpentry skills, it was quite a learning curve. Engineering various aspects of the fit was hellish and had a couple of dumb mistakes on the way, incuding ordering several silver mogami cables that were straight end. i looked at radio shack straight to right angle adapters ,but its not cost effective and theres not enough flex when you have the rigid adapter against the right angle plug. Ultimately went with a planet waves set for most of it, one montser 500 8 inch, and a few of those GC braided 6"they sell at the counter, which two of their guys said they were shocked at how decent they were. I'll eventually find someone to resolder the mogamis or i'll make more planet waves cables , but at least im up and running!

drilled two holes on the board near the top end of the footswitches and routed radio shack cable (its not carrying any audio ) underneath the board to the back end of the SE50. Toyed with several options to mount the se50 in a way that i could angle it up for performance to verify patches, but nothing really worked. i may revisit this again after running across my old adjustable classical guitar footstool just last night ...that may have some possibilities.

Powering this sucker is the next step, and also proved problematic, as the wall wart for the sE50 is HUGE and woudnt fit any where near or on or under the board. Decided to build a separate mini-board velcroing a wide extension pwer strip and the wall wart block ( there is a bit of cable between the plug and the block which will be handy), and run some kind of quasi-snake with the electrical cables to the board. Temporarily theres dedicated warts for the duncan, the wah, and the se50 -- everything else will go off a 1 spot for the time being. This also has the advantage of keeping the transformers well away form the pedals, so it may keep any potential noise issues down.

cabled and velcroed the board last night, though i had done tests with pedal order before commiting to the order and layout. will work on the power supply board and testing tonight and tomorrow!

Top Left: HBE Psilocybe phaser, DLS Rotosim, BJFE HoneyBee, Timmy, Skreddy Screwdriver, PLanet Waves tuner
Bottom Left: Diamond Memory Lane 2, Lovepedal Eternity Burst, Analog Man King of Tone, MXR DynaComp, Catalinbread Semaphore tremolo, TB looper (for the DynaComp) NOC3 EarthTone boost (attenuates my Les Paul to Strat output level), Catalinbread Serrano Picosso boost
On the floor: Fulltone stereo Mini DejaVibe, Analog Man SunFace NKT, Vox reissue wah
Underneath: Power Pedal 2+ and a DC Brick to power it all

Not enough room for all my stuff...

tried it out at rehearsal this afternoon-- happy to report it all worked, no problems, and sounded great!




my first ever pedal board!

not as elaborate as some, but it should carry what i need for now!

its not just a board, for me, but a culmination of several months intense research , listening and budgeting after being away from pedals for about 10 years!

started off with a Gator board i found on Craigslist for about 60 ish i think. The handles on the side are drawer pulls from lowes and fit perfectly!

signal path is micro POG -> Tone Press -> RMC1 Wah -> Route 808 -> Seymour Duncan Twin Tube Classic ->Pitchblack Tuner ->Dimension C -> Boss SE50.

it s a nice sequencing of textures, as well as starting off with buffer signal then a couple of TB, then buffer, TB, etc. i might want to reverse the compressor and wah from its current order -- sounds better but the wah is too hot for the Barber; I'll have to find someone here to mod it.

tuner is near the end of the chain to act as mute, but before any modulation; the extra space between the dimension C and the SE50 is for the eagerly anticipated Fromel custom Seraph :)

i might build a tier for a planned effectors Musket and the current micro vibe, but the fuzz can wait and im getting better vibe throb out of the SE50.

Being my first ever pedal board, and completely lacking in mechanical, electrical and carpentry skills, it was quite a learning curve. Engineering various aspects of the fit was hellish and had a couple of dumb mistakes on the way, incuding ordering several silver mogami cables that were straight end. i looked at radio shack straight to right angle adapters ,but its not cost effective and theres not enough flex when you have the rigid adapter against the right angle plug. Ultimately went with a planet waves set for most of it, one montser 500 8 inch, and a few of those GC braided 6"they sell at the counter, which two of their guys said they were shocked at how decent they were. I'll eventually find someone to resolder the mogamis or i'll make more planet waves cables , but at least im up and running!

drilled two holes on the board near the top end of the footswitches and routed radio shack cable (its not carrying any audio ) underneath the board to the back end of the SE50. Toyed with several options to mount the se50 in a way that i could angle it up for performance to verify patches, but nothing really worked. i may revisit this again after running across my old adjustable classical guitar footstool just last night ...that may have some possibilities.

Powering this sucker is the next step, and also proved problematic, as the wall wart for the sE50 is HUGE and woudnt fit any where near or on or under the board. Decided to build a separate mini-board velcroing a wide extension pwer strip and the wall wart block ( there is a bit of cable between the plug and the block which will be handy), and run some kind of quasi-snake with the electrical cables to the board. Temporarily theres dedicated warts for the duncan, the wah, and the se50 -- everything else will go off a 1 spot for the time being. This also has the advantage of keeping the transformers well away form the pedals, so it may keep any potential noise issues down.

cabled and velcroed the board last night, though i had done tests with pedal order before commiting to the order and layout. will work on the power supply board and testing tonight and tomorrow!

Hi there...

I thought why always post pictures everywhere... it's made for making
noise - so make some noise with it to give an impression what it sounds
like... I tried and it's been harder than I thought... to play some sensefull
stuff while thinking what am I kicking in next... ;-)

The guitar is a 2006 Gibson Les Paul R9


This is YouTube part 1 (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a5zNI9kOfKo) which I play through the Bluesbreaker's Tremolo-Channel without engaging it...

The stompboxes are:
HUGHES & KETTNER Rotosphere
MXR phase 90 Phaser
BOSS BD-2 Blues Driver
BOSS TR-2 Tremolo
ELECTRO HARMONIX LPB-1 Booster
DUNLOP Jimi-Hendrix-WahWah

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

This is YouTube part 2 (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kfFaravi3Ts) which I play through the Bluesbreaker's Normal-Channel...

The stompboxes are:
ELECTRO HARMONIX Holy Grail Reverb
TOADWORKS Death Rattle Mk3
BOSS DD-3 Digital-Delay-Pedal
FULLTONE Full Drive 2 Mosfet 10th Anniversary Edition
DUNLOP Uni-Vibe


hope you don't mind the crappy playing...
...and here is a LINK (http://www.pit-schmidt.de/english/e_gall_zubeh.html)to a picture of the bit...

Thanks so much for your kind comment, I feel honored. Funny you mention the Fishfactory, cause before I bought the RS I checked out the FF, liked it but found the standalone RS to be more versatile. Huge FF fan, though. So yes, I kind of made my own Fishfactory.
If I remember correctly, you are a FF devotee as well, right?

Nice rig brian. How're you liking the lonestar?

It is a great amp. Really great cleans, and a lot of high, med, or low to bump. I keep it really bassy a lot. Plus 2 channels, one which can be driven. 10-50-100 watt switchable. It really is terrific.

I would agree with this. It's easy to have the RV-7 almost overwhelm your tone, so I've been backing off lately, and this helps. But if you want to get lost in reverb, yeah it's there.

BTBAM, that's a ton of pedals there, I would do nothing but fiddle with knobs! Nice though. is HCfx down for everyone else?

I always wondered that too. And some of these pedals are so close together that I can't imagine being able to stomp it without screwing up the knobs on the pedal nearest to it. I used to do the tap dancing thing, but now I use a TB strip with 5 loops and it's wonderful. I almost wish it had a few more loops because it's so easy to change quickly and accurately. Plus my amp has never sounded better since getting all those pedals out of my chain and into the TB strip.

Here's a picture of my current pedalboard:

http://home.centurytel.net/flanneldrawers/Pedalboard_2-28-2008.JPG

All of the unpainted pedals are my mods, kits, or DIY builds.

Signal Path:

Compressor -> This circuit is a Dan Armstrong Orange Squeezer clone.

Tuner Mute / Buffer -> This is a passive A/B switch with a defeatable op-amp based buffer. The B output is connected to a Peterson StroboStomp tuner.

MXR script-logo Phase 45 -> This is the pedal I've owned the longest - almost 20 years. I modified it for true bypass switching and added a power jack.

Boost -> This circuit is loosely based on the COT50 with a tone control voiced like a DA Rangemaster.

Overdrive-1 - This low gain overdrive is a 'Burst Eternity inspired circuit with a diode/LED clipping switch and less overall gain.

Overdrive-2 -> This medium gain overdrive circuit is based on the Marshall BluesBreaker circuit with some cues taken from the KOT and Crunch Box circuits.

Overdrive-3 -> This is a modified GGG ITS8 (TS808) kit. It was initially modified to L'DO specs and has since been converted to CJOD specs. It's basically a CJOD with a MOSFET/LED clipping switch and a bass boost switch.

Distortion-1 -> This is a modified BYOC Mighty Mouse 2 (RAT) kit. It has been modified to M'OD specs with a couple of tweaks.

Distortion-2 -> This one is a modified and rehoused MI Audio Crunch Box with the presence trim pot relocated to a top mounted pot (all of the pedals on the back tier are housed in the taller 125 enclosures so that footswitch access clears the controls on the front tier pedals).

Tremolo -> This was my first perf board build. It's a modified EA Tremolo circuit based on the project posted at Runoffgroove.com

Power supply: Voodoo Lab Pedal Power 2 mounted underneath the board.

Pedal board: PedalTrain PT2 w/ATA case

Ahh okay. nice! thanks for the info Brian. Looking into one. haha. oh man. amp gas

Seriously, it is a great amp. I personally love the 2x12, but I know some others find the Lonestar special (the 1x12) to be a solid sounding amp.


Ah yes. I forgot to ask this. Brian, what pups are in that G&L? look like duncan rails or dimarzio cruisers or sth.

The legacy has GFS (Guitar Fetish) Lil' Killers, the Bluesboy has stock pickups.

Some killer selections here! However, I'm always curious when I see boards like this... How do you guys deal with tone-suck running through all these boxes and the sheer tap-dancing that must be involved in Switching between tones?

I'd like to say I don't notice some tone suck, but I do. however, I notice a lot less than I used too in my dual pedaltrain pro setup I had a year or so ago. In my twin reverb, I honestly can't tell much. In the mes alonestar I can, and it is a drop in the high end. That is why I has the sea blue eq at the end. It actually seems to add that touch of high end back to my signal.

Also, the one thing I noticed missing the most is that plucky sound you can get going right from guitar to amp. I found that the setting I have dialed in on my pine green compressor makes a great clean, not super compressed setting that will make my signal sound as if it isn't going through any of the other effects.

It's pretty nice. Other than that, just buffers and some higher end cabling.

nice~!!
have you every tried to stack pure drive with BOR?
how does it sound?

They stack very nicely, which is why I got rid of all my higher gain pedals like the SCOD, Top Fuel, etc...

I really liked the Pure Drive with the OCD, which I will eventually have to pick up again since I stupidly let it go in a trade.

The BoR is more "open" or jangly sounding than the OCD, so it's a bit different stacked. Not sure what I could compare it too, but it's just exactly what I was looking for. Plenty of gain, but with enough clarity that things don't get washed out.

(O.T.)I would really like to see more pics of that white guitar with blood splatter paint job:stir

Is it one of the Scott Ian Washburn's? I can only think of 2 non custom guitars that come w/blood splatter and the other is the Dan Jacobs signature ESP (but it's the wrong body shape, it has no round edges).

Yellow one is a 2 loop pedal w/tuner out I built. It was a bitch stuffing all those jacks and switches in there, but managed to have room for a battery, too! Red one has a Eternity and SHO-like boost (order switchable w/toggle). Green one is 3-knob tonebender built to "yardbox" values. Blues Driver is in the process of being modded. Board is in flux waiting on a big tube preamp that's gonna knock off at least 4 pedals. :(

Thanks.
They're both very cool pedals. The Vibutron is a great, warm and musical Blackface sounding trem, but isn't just limited to blackface sounds... with the ability to switch between square wave, sine wave and that other wave, it's actually quite a versatile three knob wonder.
The Loop Junky is one of those pedals that you can't always use due to its fairl high noise floor and the fact that it's so lo-fi. I knew this when I bought it and as a result I use it mostly when I'm into making something... surprise surprise... lo-fi sounding. Its got a killer vibrato, too, which can make your loops sound like a warped record. Very cool little unit.

its odd... i love the idea of a wet/dry blend.. but i didn't like the sound of the drive.... i just wish there were a mix on a timmy or something!

Do you find that you need the other HOG controller or can you make it work with the stand alone HOG? I'd get one if I didn't need that other dealybob they sell.

I was pleasantly surprised by how good it sounds. I had a Magic Boy and this is much better sounding. It's really small, but it has the two leds and a 9v tap and only costs $119. I can't think of anything I don't like about it. I don't use a vibe much, but when I want to play some Jimi or Gilmour, it's more than up to the task.

Does it sound considerably different that the retro-sonic phaser you had on your board for a while ?? That was you , right ?? And yes, I follow your most excellent boards that intently :D

EDIT - i guess what I mean to say, could you get even close to a univibe type tone out of your previous phaser or is the pickel vibe that much better at coping those tones to make a difference ??
