Pedal Line Friday :: Matt S.

Rattlesnake, I hope you all are doing well. Here's my current setup.

Front of amp:

Guitar -- Crybaby Wah
Wah out -- Key in of Lichtlaerm key & gate
Key out -- Snark tuner
Snark -- TC dark matter
Dark matter -- 1987

Fx Loop:

Send -- gate in of Lichtlaerm key & gate
Gate out -- TC corona chorus
Chorus -- Analog delay
Delay -- TC Hall of Fame reverb
Reverb -- Return
The delay pedal is just a cheap place holder until I can get a Boss DD8.

Eventually the Snark tuner will get replaced by a TC polytune.The empty slot will get filled with some sort of fuzz and I'll end up replacing the dark matter with some sort of 808/klon clone.

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.

As a professional musician for the past 42 years, having performed on every type and size of stage all over the world, I can honestly say that these are the finest cables I have EVER used. I would recommend them to any musician. First Class and Top Notch!!! Thank you Rattlesnake Cable Company!!!... Read

I tried Rattlesnake Instrument Cables after losing my favorite cable from another premium manufacturer. The Rattlesnakes are now my new favorite cable. I would certainly order from them again for future cable needs. The weave is perfect. Braided cables can be hit or miss for me. Some of them bunch up in weird ways and won’t lay flat. But the Rattlesnakes lay flat, coil easily, and resist tangling while being flexible enough for instrument use. The ends are reinforced with sturdy rubber. And the outer jackets won’t inadvertently spin open as they do on some other cables. Sonically, the cables are on the transparent end of the spectrum. Some cables use a higher capacitance for some high frequency roll off and a resonant peak at an assumed sweet spot. But the Rattlesnakes use a lower capacitance for a neutral, clear sound. I appreciate that Rattlesnake lists their capacitance and shielding specs instead of printing meaningless marketing catch phrases on fancy packaging. Capacitance, shielding, and build quality are the only things that matter on cables. Rattlesnake checks on all three. Everything else is B.S.

I've been playing guitar since 1972. During all the years I've tried every string on the market. Over the years I've used some really good sounding strings but once I tried Stringjoys I was hooked. Not sure how many sets of SJ's I've put on my Telecasters and also my Taylor acoustic but they are for real. I've found SJ's to be long lasting, smooth as ice, and subtle but really clean. Love them and that's all I buy now. I'm fortunate to have tried them. Time to order more I think. If you play guitar you should try them. SJ's my string. RM
