Pedal Line Friday :: Kristar H.

I’m excited to submit my pedalboard: “My Spaceship 2.6.”

Signal Chain:

Pinstripe Pedals Buffer -> Walrus Audio Canvas Tuner -> Xotic SP Compressor -> Electro-Harmonix Pitch Fork -> Browne Amplification Protein -> Twilight Audio Konstante -> JHS Pedals Kilt 2.0 -> Dunlop DVP4 -> Walrus Audio Julianna (Stereo) -> Line 6 HX One (Stereo) with 2 aux switch Pedalnetics -> Strymon Timeline (Stereo) -> Strymon BigSky (Stereo) -> IK Multimedia TONEX One (Stereo) -> Pinstripe Pedals DISO+ (Line Isolator) -> Temple Audio 4 Way Mod. Morningstar MC6 to control Strymons & Hx One. Using both Strymon Zuma & Oija for power. 

Why this setup?

Everything here has a purpose. The front end is all about clarity, control, and dynamic feel - locking in a clean, responsive foundation. The gain stages give me flexibility to stack and shape tone depending on the moment. From there, it opens up into a stereo world where delays and reverbs create width, depth, and atmosphere.

I use this board primarily for worship settings and modern ambient playing, where space and emotion matter just as much as the notes themselves. The stereo section is key; it allows the guitar to breathe and sit beautifully in a mix while still standing out.

At the end of the day, this board reflects how I hear music: clean but powerful, ambient but intentional, expressive but grounded.

I am the Lead Guitarist and Music Director at my church Ministerio Nuevo Pacto (MNP Church) in Pawtucket, RI. 

Guitars: Green Schecter Fastback II & Citizens Guitar C1 Pro (new addition), both loaded with Lambertone pickups. 

Board: Temple Audio Trio 21

Cables: Rattlesnake instrument cables (including my P16 personal mixer headphone extension). Pedalboard patch cables by Goodwood Audio. 

I share my music and creative journey on Tiktok/Instagram/Facebook/YouTube, and this setup is a huge part of that sound.

Submit Your Pedal Line!

About a million years ago, I used to run a blog called EffectsBay. On that blog, the most popular feature I would run was Pedal Line Friday. This is where readers of the site would send pics of their pedalboard and a short (sometimes long) write-up of routing and thoughts about specific pedals and the reasoning why they liked it, etc. Readers. loved this. It was a great way to learn about new applications or techniques regarding pedals. It also brought a little inspiration and knowledge about pedals you were not familiar with. It also brought a great sense of community - people like sharing and absorbing cool things, right? It was a super popular feature, and I loved putting them together.

All you have to do is send a pic of your pedalboard (or pedal line - it doesn't have to be on a board) along with a short (or long) write-up of the board. We want a list of pedals (manufacturer/model), routing would be great, and, most importantly, why you use those particular pedals. Also, this is a great way to promote your band or musical project - include that information as well!

You can send the pic and the write-up to pedalline@rattlesnakecables.com.
