Pretty tempted to try their Omicron, not a huge DG fan but that always was the one that interested me. The other non drive effects on there are pretty tempting. Just wish there were more demos out there.

I think we need out own pedalboard thread for those with less appetite for razzmatazz. I've got my Mod Dwarf for when I want to zhuzh it up a little with a chorus and some reverb but mostly just end up using it to add more drives 😂

I always look at the interesting boards on here and think it's time for some exotic modulation or something rather than just a board full of preamps and drives. I just think I've never really gotten my head around time based stuff or flangers etc and how to dial them in rather than not liking them. Perhaps I'll start with an octave pedal and go from there. I really enjoyed the the MV OFF1, having fuzz made it a little more palatable even if the tracking wasn't incredible.

Just guitar and drums but these are monstrous!

Just picked some up, sound decent and waaaay less sticky than my usual DR Hi beams.

You could probably test the theory by running your preamp of choice into the FX return on your amp if it has one. I did this a few times with my Model FeT and Capo preamps and it sounded great. Also did it with the Boss GT1000 core quite a bit. That was a GK Fusion S 800 amp.

Well I did get a response but not sure I did a good job of explaining myself. I think he thought I was complaining about the fan noise levels as well. He said the temperature wasn't a concern though!

Good to know! Yeah the grill on the back is hot, I can hold my hand on it comfortably for about 5 seconds or so before it starts to feel uncomfortable. I've messaged them just for some piece of mind so will see what they say about operating temperatures.

I'd pop it in the 60 degree range I think so definitely a little on the higher side.

I dont have a thermometer to hand but I'd say its approaching a good latte temperature.

How hot do peoples WB100s run? I know valve amps run pretty hot etc but at what point should I get concerned?

Yeah saw that, really neat feature and a very clever optimisation.

I've got 2, one which I use in the band and one which has the Mod Dwarf on I can use more for guitar and experimentation. The way it's set up is pretty handy as I have really easy access to pop the Dwarf in the post fx loop if I want to play with some delays and really nice convolution reverbs or I can just go out of my main board and into the Dwarf if I want to use some of the analog pedals in front. All stuff I'd never have a need for in the band I don't think. I only have one expression/volume pedal which I need to swap between them but pretty manageable!

It's a wonderful thing, Model FeT, Longsword and the Halberd are absolutely incredible. The Halberd is the biggest surprise for me though, it's capable of so much variety. Thinking I'll wire up the Longsword (with a clean blend) into the Halberd this time around. Highly recommend the EAE stuff if you can get your hands on it.

Not wired up yet as I still need to get the shelf screwed in properly but no more 90 degree pedals 🙌 sorry for the state of the desk

Hooked me up with a fantastic Lusithand Alma, swift and exactly as described 🙌 top chap!

Did a proper double take when I saw how big the pedalboard was, thought it was a 2.0 or something 😂 Those pedals are monsters.

A decent preamp like the Ampeg would sound excellent 👌

Not sure, I really want to install push buttons for the pickups in my J4 instead of the individual volume pots but means widening the holes to 12mm don't want to wreck it if I can't get a replacement. Tempted to make a chunky wenge one which I can install the switches on so I have the original. Wenge on sea foam green has to be a winner 😂
