Re: Rethinking your board.
I always want to but haven't taken the plunge. My band is heavily dependent on specific sounds that if I sold some gear the songs could no longer be played. That'd be great incentive to write more jams so I'm looking into it always. Just not sure what I'd do.

But I really need to concentrate on my playing at the moment.
I'm better at creating sounds than playing the instrument.

Re: Rethinking your board.
I already re-thought my board. That's why I need to build a new board. A bigger one.
But first I need to build a new headshell for my bass amp.
So yeah.... If my re-thought pedalboard is finished this time next year, I'm gonna be happy

Re: Rethinking your board.
I've always wondered about people/bands who are like this... i mean like... what sounds are we even talking about here, you know? What are the irreplaceable things, because from my experience, changing gear always pushed me to just using new sounds or evolving the part into something inspired by the new gear. However everything basically stayed the same I thinkBellyheart wrote:I always want to but haven't taken the plunge.

Re: Rethinking your board.
I have been rethinking my board for the past year and a half and there's no end in sight!
It's a lot of fun

Re: Rethinking your board.
For me, higher end multis are the solution.

Re: Rethinking your board.
I'm so tired of my board, that's the reason why I stopped to play guitar.
I've become a synth addict.

Re: Rethinking your board.
Well second voice ugly face and rainbow machine are pretty unique but I'm starting to find alternatives. I'm not bad at guitar playing I'm just more into how things sound than showing some shred flinstone.

Re: Rethinking your board.
I'm guessing people in cover bands never change their boards. Or someone on tour with a tight setlist. Otherwise it just doesn't make sense not to constantly be exploring new sounds.

Re: Rethinking your board.
