2 New Pedals Day/ New Pedalboard Day/ and Pedalboard Re-Wire

So I got a wild hair up my ass and decided to change over from the bulky looking Bullet Cable solderless DIY kit to the Evidence Audio SIS Monorail solderless plugs. There wasn't a tonal difference, the Bullet Cable was super high quality stuff, but the difference size/weight/appearance was worth the price of admission.

 

I sold my Bullet Cables to a friend for $50, a great deal, and I got the new set for $200 basically from PGS with a new VFE Blues King Pedal. They matched a deal from another Authorized Dealer that basically gave me 25% off my entire Evidence Audio purchase. The Blues King is AWESOME, it is my favorite overdrive I have ever owned!

 

The Gate of Kahn is absolutely amazing. It is completely transparent and doesn't choke the notes too soon. It is perfect for use with my P-90 Jr. as well as my other guitars because of the amount of gain on tap with the Mesa, combined with the terrible noisy power in my basement. I can literally let go of the strings and have no noise. Permanent addition to the board for me.

 

I also was able to sell my old NYC Pedalboard within three hours of listing it for sale and placed an order for the exact same board in Sea Green. I love his boards, they are completely top notch. Mike is the man and he turned this around super quickly. I drop shipped him a leather handle directly from Mesa, so the cover of the board has the same hardware that my amp has. It looks like it was all made together. I am really thrilled with my rig. It is so sweet. GAS officially cured..... for now. =)

 

Good times. See the before and after photos below.

 

 

 

P.S. I made a custom riser out of Acacia wood for my Wah Pedal so I didn't have to screw it down into the pedalboard to make it stable.

Looks great. Well done.

 

 

I had the VFE Blues King for a while, it is what they say it is.

I had a binge one night and hit buy now on 3-4 VFE ods. They all were what the blurb on their site said they were.

Often with pedals and pedal companies it doesnt work out that way.

I shouldve tried there Klon clone as well.

Thanks everyone! I am really happy with it. Kuz, thanks for re-convincing me on the Seafoam throughout. Happy I went with my initial instincts.

 

 

 

 

Nice! Did you build that board yourself, or is it from a company like NYC pedalboards?

 

That is a nice setup. I still don't have a guitar pedalboard setup. I really need to put one together.

 

 

It is the Pedalhead from NYC Cases. He is amazing, everything is so high quality.

I've got a pedal board with hard shell case and a bunch of effects pedals, none of which have ever been used. I suppose I just bought them in case I ever needed them. I still just enjoy plugging directly into the amp. I've got about as many amps as I do guitars so I guess my amps are actually serving as my real effects pedals.
