Thanks so much for inspiring my dream pedal board!!! After seeing this video 10 months ago, I was set on a mission which was recently completed... Rather than your Fender board, I went with a large D'Addario XPND (because I knew I would end up with more than 10 pedals). I did go with the Fender lvl 12 engine room you mentioned using, and BOSS pancake patch cables which worked out great ! I used a BOSS PCS-20 daisy chain plugged into my TU-3w to power any additional pedals to my board after I had more than 12...and ended up building a board with 18 pedals total. (14 of them BOSS) The pedals on this board include: TU-3w Chromatic Tuner AC-3 Acoustic Simulator NS-1X Noise Suppressor JB-2 Angry Driver MT-2 Metal Zone PS-6 Harmonist FB-2 Feedbacker/Booster GE-7 Equalizer IR-2 Amp & Cabinet PH-3 Phase Shifter SY-1 Synthesizer CE-2w Chorus DD-8 Digital Delay RV-6 Reverb the non-BOSS pedals are: Dunlop Shrine Series Jimi Hendrix Fuzz Face Digitech EX-7 Expression Factory Digitech Digidelay Digitech JamMan solo looper. There's 21 total pedals if you count the JHS red remote for the JB-2, and 2 Digitech FSX3 footswitches for the looper and the expression factory. Anyway...much thanks to your posted video for leading me down this path of pedal-purchasing and now penny-less insanity! 😅 Actually, the rabbit hole ended up in endless guitar bliss for me...and for that I can't thank you enough! I otherwise may have just bought some piece-of-crap digital multi-effects unit which I think are much less fun and very discouraging due to time consuming digital menu scrolling while tweaking infinite parameters only to find sounds that are mostly too shrill or tinny. Individual stomp box effects to me are much more fun since you can dial in your sound in real-time for each effect with the quick turn of a knob rather than constantly scrolling through digital menus while tweaking each parameter. Plus BOSS pedals always sound awesome! Thanks again for the inspiration and rock on, dude!! \m/

Great stuff. My one "wish this was done different" is on the flanger, which wasn't played in isolation. You did the clean example, but then added both the overdrive and the flanger, so there were two changes in the comparison which made it a little more challenging to hear the flanger for its own sake. All in all, a great, "down and dirty but definitely effective" 101 - definitely worth the "like". Thanks!

I’m an electric guitarist for 20+ years and I play leads and chords and since the digital age with computers I ditched all these old pedals decades ago. I only ever use the effects in the software and a multieffects pedal for recording and it sounds great on my end . Maybe it would be easier if playing a lot of gigs to use all the different pedals but I’ve never had a need for it.

A great clear and concise video; helpful even to someone whose played for a few years. It may be worth adding that while putting the Looper at the end is clearly the place for it to go when you are of course looping, but when you are trying to learn what your pedals can do and how they work, I find it is good to temporarily move it to the beginning. That way you can put in a quick 2 or 4 bar sequence, put your guitar down and start to tweak your pedals over and over again as the clean loop plays through them to rapidly work out how they respond.

Excellent information here! I run the guitar to the following... -tuner pedal -OD pedal no#1 -OD pedal no#2 -Boss D1 Dist. To a rack mount /preamp affects unit (these pedals go in the front input) The rear rack output goes to the second half of my pedal board... -Phase pedal -boss chorus 2 -flanger pedal -Delay pedal -reverb pedal Then to my tube amp... It seems to work beautifully this way. Keeping in mind that the rack effect mount has some preset noise control gates, making it sound quiet with no back ground noise... Also using my pedals with different on- board rack effects gives me a ton of variation in guitar sounds! But I am very curious to see a straight forward set-up like you are showing... Guitar 🎸 to tuner, to overdrives, to Distortion, and to the rest of effects like, flangers, chorus, phasers, reverbs, delays etc ... Then straight to my tube amp... Keeping in mind that I will have to balance out the (not having a preamp, noise gates/filters, and other on board goodies). Which means, using a tad more volume off of the amp, right? Seems that your set-up would be perfect for live/stage/ performance, while my set-up is probably better for studio work and recordings right!? What's your take on this? Would love to know. Great video, thx!
