  1. I'm gonna say it again, the body shape is really really not my style and I don't like it at all, but daaaaaaaaaaaamn that colourcombinations is amazing. The gold with that wood, it's really awesome man. Good job! Are the pickup-covers gonna be gold as well? Edit: nevermind, I've scrolled back a page and can see now that they are made of wood. I think gold would have been nice
  2. 4 pedals for drive and fuzz seems quite standard 😉😉 Okay kidding a little bit, I only have 3 fuzzes (+ a clean boost in between to get some extra girth out of them). But I sure want more!
  3. How is that little bastard? I'm thinking about buying it as an extra amp, but really don't know if it's worth it...
  4. I like the attached watch, never seen it before but so logical to do if you think about it! I'm always a bit jealous if I see people with a fully 'gig-rigged' board, I really can't afford that... But it looks really awesome, now go and play!
  5. Nice and clean! Don't know all the pedals but I guess that's not a surprise with everything that's out there! Do you have a picture of the bottom, cables etc.?
  6. If you ever get the volume past three, we propably know already, in the netherlands, belgium, germany, the rest of europe...
  7. I don't think I would get a sound out of that that I like, but damn that's a sexy looking rig!
  8. Thanks for the input! I'm at my dorm right now, trying to survive my exams. Once that's over I will try to do the following: Take some decent pictures so everything is clear for you guys, and use a multimeter to try and find any mistakes or problems.
  9. My guess would be that it's just a passive switch that conrols a relay, but I'm not a 100% certain.
  10. Okay, thanks. I'll guess I'll have to wait untill I can make use of the multimeter. To be honest, I don't even switch channels that often, I just wanted to include it in my board for completeness, if you get what I mean
  11. The friend that soldered them has one, so that is something I want to try, but I have exams so it's gonna take some time before I can go over there with my board. But the main question here is: Should it work the way I did it?
  12. I don't have a proper photograph of the wiring between them, but it's simply just the same pieces on the two sockets connected. That is indeed the way I use to connect the switch to the amp. All four pairs give the same result, AND all four pairs do work when I use them for putting signal through, so bass in outside socket, corresponding socket into pedal, pedal into other inside socket, corresponding socket into amp... works for all of the pairs. I have tried cables of which I'm sure they work, and they are all just instrument jack-jack cables.
  13. Yes, and when I (for testing) put my bass-signal through it works properly so it appears to be soldered properly...
  14. I don't want to spam my own topic, but I would love some answers, so no I have given the needed info, no idea what could cause the problem?
  15. I have not tried mone ones cause I ordered the stereo ones and I don't want to pay shipmentcost just for new plugs while they do work (for bass -> pedalboard and pedalboard -> amp that is).
  16. I have a Fender Bassman 100t and I use the included footswitch, which works if plugged directly in the amp. These are the sockets I used: https://www.banzaimusic.com/REAN-NYS-2203.html
  17. I'm quoting myself from another topic, maybe here someone can help me, or at least explain why what I want to do is not possible.
  18. Btw there's also some good news, my Q-tron+ seems to be working again. As it turns out my music-shop handy man, who soldered in a new powerconnection, soldered in a normal one instead of the + on the inside one that EHX used. Very thoughtfull of him, except for the fact that he didn't tell me so I still put an adapter in between, baffled about why it wasn't working properly
  19. Finally had the time to do some propper testing and I have one problem. Maybe here someone can help me with it: The 'patchbay' is simply jack connectors connected with each other. They are stereo jacks (bought the wrong ones cause mono would have been okay but I doesn't matter for the signal normally) so it's three little cables soldered between two jacks. The thing that isn't working is my amp-channel-switch, so switch plugged into a jack, and a normal guitarcable from jack to amp. This doesn't work and I don't understand why. Could it be the stereo jack's f-ing things up, or is it just not possible to carry the signal longer than the normal switch-cable length? Or could there be another problem? It's not that the soldering isn't done properly cause they all work for the other appliances.
  20. That will be filled up, rest assured But I'm a student so money is tight, altough I am quite happy with the amount and quality of gear I was able to acquire over the years
  21. It's odly statisfying how well the 4x10+amp lines up with the 6x10 Nice set you got there!
  22. No new pedals, but I do finally have my new board! If you wanna check the buildingproces and features of the board: The order of pedals is: Bass -> Compressor -> Loopswitch -> VariPhase -> Amp (bassman 100t) And the loops: Tuner out: Boss TU3 Loop 1: empty (is going to be an octaver if I have some money) Loop 2: Big muff Loop 3: Swollen Pickle Loop 4: LPB1 -> Gun Fuzz Loop 5: empty (is going to be a delay if I have some money) Loop 6: qtron+
  23. FINALLY DONE! It has been a longer project than I anticipated, but we have reached the finnish-line. And I took some pictures with a real camera this time, so you can actually see stuff. Btw, board without pedals was 7kg, board with pedals, powersupplie and cables etc. was 14kg. Not at all lightweight but it's quite okay when you pick it up! I still have one problem to solve but it has nothing to do with the board itself. My Qtron+ doesn't work anymore. The power connection was broken and fixed but the fix does not seem to be very good cause I can't seem to get the light to go on... Only thing left to do is borrow a labelmaker from someone and label my loopswitch and my 'patchbay'!
  24. I haven't put it on a scale yet, but I am going to do that before and after I put the pedals on. It's not super lightweight is the only thing I can say right now. But it is big ofcourse, so that's expected. I am happy that I picked 8mm plywood instead of 12mm plywood, cause it's more than sturdy enough, and I would not have wanted the extra weight!
  25. Almost done! I've made the cut to make the XLR out fit, and I'm happy enough with how it looks now. The 'patchbox' is soldered. It was quite some work and took some effort to put away all the cables in the tiny space, but we needed some cable-length to make the soldering doable. I do think I'm going to make a small cover so that if by accident some beer get's spilled over the board I don't get electrical problems. The last platform is glued on. Next weekend it's just putting on some velcro and I can start putting on the pedals!
