Pedal Line Friday :: Aaron C.

Aaron C.

This is the board I use with my band Morning Giants live and in the studio. It is in a state of flux with some of the gains but stays focused in the main base tone of Ethos Clean Fusion Deluxe. 


Signal chain: 


tuner > karma Odr clone > karma mostortion clone > ethos harmonic Bias tremolo > Ethos Clean a fusion deluxe > strymon Volante > Eventide H9 max > free the tone final boost > Louis Electric Buster (higher powered tweed deluxe variant)


I use the two karma pedals to boost the Ethos Clean Fusion deluxe for solos and accentuate special parts. The Ethos Clean Fusion Deluxe (CFD) does Dumble and BF Fender Tones. It has various boost and EQ abilities itself. (Note the small painted pedal. F-Boost for boosting clean Fender channel) I use the Tremolo in conjunction (The harmonic trem) as a Leslie or Univibe depending on the songs) The Strymon Volante is used for longer (Pink Floyd) Echo. I also use a super hyped version for spacey sections and tension.  The Eventide h9 is primarily used for big reverbs and possible shimmer.  Final Boost is a take up or attenuate for the whole board.  Iā€™ve used various other gains in the front and am always trying to find the holy stack.

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.

I recently placed 2 cable orders on two separate dates. I was SO impressed with the customer service by Hank and the quality of the cables that I ordered merch so I could advertise just a little.

Thereā€™s a reason thereā€™s 500+ reviews and they have a perfect 5 stars. I canā€™t say enough nice things about this company and their cables/accessories.

Yes, you can get a cheaper cable that you probably can't hear a difference between in a double blind test. But I keep on buying my cables from Rattlesnake. Here's why. They actually have real human support; often you're talking directly with the owner. They think hard about design and durability.... Read

I recently placed 2 cable orders on two separate dates. I was SO impressed with the customer service by Hank and the quality of the cables that I ordered merch so I could advertise just a little. I am not a rookie player. I am 72 and still an active musician. The Rattlesnake Cable Company and of course Hank , has a business acumen that other businesses should definitely use as a model. I will be buying more products from Rattlesnake in the future.

Thereā€™s a reason thereā€™s 500+ reviews and they have a perfect 5 stars. I canā€™t say enough nice things about this company and their cables/accessories. Iā€™m a big proponent of ā€œyou get what you pay forā€ and these deliver just that and then some. Never any buzz or signal loss, they look fantastic, they feel fantastic. Theyā€™re not cheap, and Iā€™m not rich, so the fact that my studio and gig bag is filled with their cables is testament to why I keep coming back a couple cables at a time. Itā€™s flat out worth it. Iā€™ve gotten quite a few unprompted compliments from fellow musicians who Iā€™ve gigged with, and a few from old men who just recognize a well built cable when theyā€™re out to dinner listening to a cover band. Every order has always came lightning fast, with a thank you written on a pad, packed with care. I recently had USPS miss-deliver (and lose) a package, and Amy was on it to get me a replacement as soon as it was apparent it was lost.

Yes, you can get a cheaper cable that you probably can't hear a difference between in a double blind test. But I keep on buying my cables from Rattlesnake. Here's why. They actually have real human support; often you're talking directly with the owner. They think hard about design and durability. For example, on principle, they don't sell Y-cables, which are fragile. Instead sell rugged splitter boxes. Another example is their "snakehead" cable to avoid wearing out your guitar finish. When you buy from Rattlesnake, you are directly supporting US manufacturing and employees. Most products have a true lifetime warranty. And the protective wrap on their cables is really durable and comes in a nice assortment of colors.
