Pedal Line Friday :: Scott G.

Scott G.

This is my current setup for a variety/cover act that's been running for almost 15yrs. As the only guitar player in a 4pc group, being able to cop keyboard/horn parts is an important part of the show.

Signal chain is:

Main board:

Radial ABY-
A) line-> DOD Filter- MXR Phase 95- JHS Crayon- Keeley Phat Mod- JHS Morning Glory- Friedman Buxom Boost- Boss DM 101-> front of Friedman Dirty Shirley.

JHS Emperor Chorus- MXR/CAE Boost- Keeley Halo- Keeley Hydra in the effects loop of Friedman Dirty Shirley.

Boss tuner out of the chain from ABY tuner output.

Aux board:

B) line-> TC Polytune (for mute)- EHX POG3- JRockett Steampunk Boost- Strymon Lex- Two Notes CabM-> front of house/IEM's.

A) line runs either by itself or with B) line to add keys/horns separate while maintaining original guitar signal from amplifier.

Everything on both boards get plenty of use in a typical 4hr show.

Front of amplifier:

DOD Filter and Phase 95 for the funky vibe.
The Phat Mod and Morning Glory handle the majority of the gain needs. I really think of the gain in terms of:

Phat Mod- 1st gear
Morning Glory- 2nd gear
Phat Mod/Morning Glory stacked- 3rd gear
Buxom Boost- 4th gear
Crayon is great on its own or stacked with any of the other combinations.

DM101 does more delay than I use, but there's plenty on tap when I need it. I mainly work with a short analog and a long analog delay as presets and make ample use of the tap tempo button to sync with the drummer.

Effects loop:
Emperor Chorus for the big 80's thing, MXR/CAE Boost for solo boost. I keep the Halo for a digital delay on left switch and washy reverb on right switch. Hydra for mostly (always on) simple plate reverb and the occasional harmonic tremolo.

POG3 for all keys/synth/horns. Steampunk Boost for when it needs a little more. Lex for the rotary sounds. Expression pedal for rotary speed. CabM to avoid carrying another amplifier!

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 received my cable just a few weeks ago and I've already ran it through the wringer - club gigs, theater gigs, dancehall gigs, and outside gigs. And man, it does not disappoint.

I'm a huge fan of this company. This cables are built fantastically. But even better their hand made in the U.S. Its hard to pass up something this perfect.

You wont regret a rattlesnake! I finally found a cable that not only looks great, but can take all the abuse I can through at it! Heavy duty heat and abrasion-resistant outer sleeve, the extra long "Snake Head" shrink-wrap on a right angle Neutrik plug, these cables definitely stand up to the... Read

I received my cable just a few weeks ago and I've already ran it through the wringer - club gigs, theater gigs, dancehall gigs, and outside gigs. And man, it does not disappoint. First off, it looks cool as all get out. But even slightly more important, it sounds great. Clear signal, no hum, very transparent. Exactly how a cable should be. The build quality is top-notch too. And the customer service is beyond fantastic. Rattlesnake Cables all the way from here on out. Thanks Hank and team

Heavy duty heat and abrasion-resistant outer sleeve, the extra long "Snake Head" shrink-wrap on a right angle Neutrik plug, these cables definitely stand up to the challenge of full-time gigging. Their short patch cables are well built as well and great for pedal boards. They are also very helpful and fast with personal service!
