Less is more: Yngwie, art, shred, drone, Orwell, gear...?

Yeah, I really tried to slimline. Made an effort to make the most of using less pedals cos I got sick of lugging a ton of stuff about when there's pedals that only get used once in one song or whatever.

For the longest time I kept wanting to just expand my board with more and more pedals. I need this one for that sound and that one for this slightly different sound etc.
But I realized I wasn't using half my pedals regularly so I cut back to a tiny board with some essentials
It's made playing guitar more fun and I feel less constrained by my board...even though I use less pedals....
I guess I'm just trying to say I can get behind the less is more mindset

I'm a little dissapointed this thread wasn't about toilette paper.

But yeah, I buy what makes me happy. If I want to buy something I start looking for shit to sell. End of story. My current board is built on ten years of buying and flipping pedals.

My problem is keeping it minimal when learning a new pedal so I can learn the new pedal. And restraining myself from buying more pedals while I'm in that learning process. I'm trying to do a lot of catchup lately. But I keep just about everything and have for years.

Yeah I only have that yngwie lp as well. Any more would be too much.

I suppose I should add that I keep bulking back up, now running 3 amps and got a new set of rack stuff for one amp.

When you have one amp just for your reverb, you know you're getting places.

If I ever got around to playing live regularly, I'd like to think a PT2 (plus expression pedals) would be enough for me. I've got 11 boxes stuffed on it right now.

Dumbass has all that shit and then a fucking Ovation acoustic.

Ovation acoustic was the jesus of the hair metal era.

He hasn't changed, why should the acoustic?
