    If you don't need to tapdance during a song to go from clean to overdriven to something and back to clean then I would go with a Zoom MS60B or B+ and put the effects you want into the cycle list. If you need to tapdance then a B3n or a B6 would be my suggestion, but I'm a bit of a Zoomer. Options are available from Boss or Line6 as well.

    Ain't that the truth. How someone who only learned to walk last summer can be so fast, and able to climb up things that shouldn't be possible to climb is beyond me. The little tyke is now tall enough to be able to work door handles so we have to lock the hall door so he doesn't fall down the stairs or escape out of the front door.

    Right, I've called it finished now and put the Nobbs and the control cover on. One thing I'm not impressed by is the pickups. They're nice sounding units and I can't fault their functionality. They're a pair of Delano Quad Core wired P/reverse P in the neck and P/all coils at the bridge. I had hoped for more tonal variation depending on which config I chose but to my ears there's no difference. I could have just put a couple of soapbars in and had done. Ho hum, it's like that, and that's the way it is.

    Bit of a resurrection and possibly a long shot, but does anyone know what size the mounting holes in the power bar are? I'm tending towards M6, but really need it confirming somehow. It's M8 if anyone else wants to know.

    Or, it could have been the last set of the evening and they were sufficiently lubricated to dance? 😉 I'm sure it was the Squier really.

    Is it possible to have PMs edited in the same way as the main forum?
  8. Si600
    Not for me, but I don't order from them very often. I ordered a PSU on the 15th and it was in my grubby hands on the 17th when I got home.

    Get a bigger board, problem solved....

    There is never a good reason for @Teebs. If he swapped the blue monstrosity on the left hand edge with the MXR then all the pedals would be the same orientation AND the XLR socket would be accessible. Just saying.......

    It lives! With many thanks to @KiOgon for troubleshooting the wiring loom, The Spondz and @Andyjr1515 for advice during the process and @AngelDeVille for sorting getting the body to me in the first place. I present the Peavybird It's not quite finished, I've left the knobs off for a moment because I have a suspicion I've got one of the pickups out of phase, certainly the volume drops right off in certain coil combinations. I'll detail the not quite right bits if you want me to 😉

    TBH Andy, there was so little screw poking out any amount of masking tape wasn't going to save the finish. I need a new screw now though.

    I think it mounts using the threaded feet, but the web page isn't clear. They're 50 x 30 x X, I'd assume 30mm deep and 50mm wide. It does: Will do. A red one but probably without the step as it doesn't seem to fit in my case. I'll measure what I've got currently and be back later. @Woodinblack has one, we could ask him to measure it up....
  14. Si600
    Or... and this is just on the fly, print up a couple of tabs that match the extrusion rails and a countersunk hole that matches the PSU and mount it with that. I'd use the 400mm one so it fits between the end pieces. How much were you thinking of charging for the printed components?
  15. Si600
    Och, get tae hell you, I didn't need to know they were a thing. Not a bad solution though..... My thoughts were initially to put two more rails at the bottom under the top rearmost two for things that can just sit there and won't need changing very often, the PSU and compressor spring to mind. Then the DI can sit on the top at the back along with a.n.other thing that will need printing.... The forward lower tray then holds the B3n, tuner and the amp channel footswitch. I really need to measure up my case and confirm it's the one I linked!

    Screw is out, and now I have a little circle around the hole where the pliers wore the finish away. In other news, the electronics still don't work but I weighed it and it's going to be around the 5kg mark. I also hung it on a strap. The headstock gently drifts downward, but that was a cheap nylon strap, leather will probably hold it.

    Do you want the random thoughts about redesigning *your* project for *my* spec here or in a PM? Cioks DC7s are currently around the 180€ on Reverb, as opposed to the 235€ with Thomann. A Sol is also an option, will I regret not having the extra outputs, or will I regret spending the extra 50€ for outputs that are likely never to get used....
  18. Si600
    I hate you. It's probably going to fit my flight case as is. https://theflightcasecompany.com/gb01-guitar-effect-pedal-board-flight-case Because my DC-8 doesn't have enough output to run both a TC Electronics ND-1 and a B3n, I use the B3n wall adapter into a socket screwed into the existing wooden riser. If I get one from you then I need something to provide 12v 300mA and 9v 500mA without using all the outputs. I could use a three leg doubler, a tripler I suppose, for the Zoom....
  19. Si600
    Sorry d_g, did this sell in the end?
  20. Si600
    Must resist temptation.... So, with that in mind, a few questions about the red one. With 400mm extrusions what's the overal width of it? What's its overall depth and how high is it at the front and at the back. I need a new PSU unfortunately if I do go this route. Sadly for me there's a Cioks DC-7 2nd gen for sale in the effects section. Or was.

    I have an x-y table you can have. If we can work out how to get it from Germany to you without it costing a billion quid.
  22. Si600
    Hell yeah! But really, do I need it? Feck no! I'll have a measure up and a serious think, but don't hold your breath!
  23. Si600
    It's a Super Twin, but as I mentioned, both it and the GK have been used as a mixer table for the past year so I've just been going through the B3n. I have an audition with a new band on Tuesday, and I don't know whether they use backline, in-ear or both so the rig may come out to play again, or it may not.
  24. Si600
    It really is as simple as that then. Thank you very muchly. Of course the GK is an essential part of my rockstar tone It's been used as a table for the last year, we rearranged the rehearsal room and I didn't bother to set it all up again, just went from the pedal board to the PA. My drive patches need a bit of work, they sound a bit flat without the head but that's a setting tweak, not a reason to plug the amp back in.

    What sort of temperature is that hot, cherry red or just until the finish bubbles? 😉
