Holy shit, good spot. That's interesting.The Bold/Spongy switch is in FRONT!!!!
Haha. I'm actually really liking the cabclone out into the FR-12. It's a lot better than I expected. I'm in an apartment now (no shared walls, but still) and I love how controllable the volume is. Not to mention the extra tone controls are nice to have. I do have a custom 2x12 in the garage but I'm just too lazy to drag it outta there.^ that needs a well broken-in Mesa Thiel cab

Switched out the Deliverance and Sig X so the D120 is the new live head with both FB412's, Sig X lives at home now, but might be brought out for the odd dual amp show. Not a bad home rig.

I need to do some cable management underneath, but I pretty much have this board completed. The Friedman IR-X is cool by itself, but didn't do it for me with boosts. I am using the GT-1000 Core for effects as well as amp modeling, but bypass the Cab Sims. I run into a Fryette Power Station PS-2A and a Mojotone British 412.
The Morningstar MC8 covers turning off and on effects in the patch like a pedalboard. I am contemplating a second midi cable (Boss midi out to Morningstar midi in) so I can change the options on the Morningstar when I use the down/up switches on the Boss GT-1000 Core.
Patch wise, there will likely be a clean patch, a medium gain patch, a higher gain rock rhythm patch, and a lead patch. My first patch so far uses the Boutique amp, which might be a Dumble or something. It can get pretty high gain with the gain switch (currently set to go from medium to high), overdrive (blues OD which I think is a Bluesbreaker), and solo switch.
Boutique will likely be the light to medium gain patch with the three options above bypassed. I'm thinking the Supreme will cover higher gain stuff, while maybe one of the Fender style amp models cover cleans. I'm not sure what I'll use for the lead patch.
I am using a Truetone CS7 power supply to power the Cry Baby Mini, Strobostomp HD tuner, Morningstar MC8, and Boss GT-1000 Core. The EMG ES-918 has batteries (though I hate the way it is implemented, as it making mounting to a pedalboard difficult), and the Mission EP-1 doesn't require power.

You want that, you pay for it!At the very least, you deserve a reward for a neat and tidy look.I've been thinking more about the GT-1000 lately.....
And thankfully, no bare man feet in the pic, either.![]()
