Great choice on the amp and the speaker. Richard Goodsell likes that speaker best in the Super 17 and I had one in mine. Sounded better to my ears than the Celestion Gold and the stock Goodsell speaker.
Also a nice choice on the guitar. The drop top classic covers a lot of ground with styles, especially with a HB in the bridge position. Nice PRS too. That should give you some tones that you can't get with the DTC. I like the Pumaboard. I've heard nothing but good things about him and he was helpful when I spoke with him about a possible new board. And yes, he has a plug on the side where you can use a regular extension cord as a power cord. Under the board the plug goes to the PP2 for juice. As far as effects, I haven't played through the Trex Roommate. The Keeley BD-2 phat mod is a good pedal. I gave mine to my bro-in-law. Pedals are a whole new ballgame in itself. There are so many options and so many great pedals. I've tried out a ton of pedals and have come up with a few that are my faves. You might want to look into a little switcher like this. I have an earlier model of the Musicom Lab Switcher and it's just awesome. You have 8 loops that you can program to switch any combination of pedals on and off with one tap. No tap dancing! Plus it gets any tone sucking pedals out of the loop when they're not in use. You can also program it to send a midi signal. I use it to switch patches on my Eventide Timefactor. If you have a channel switching amp it can switch channels for you as well. Great little unit that fits on a pedalboard. Other than that, the TC Electronic G-system rocks for time based effects while still controlling your OD pedals in loops.

Well, I've set up more than my share of different switching systems over the years as I've tried different things so it's not too difficult for me. You basically have a pair of cables as send/receive to each pedal from the unit. Programming the unit is a breeze. I'm not a big menu tweaker so the ease of use to program the thing is a plus. It's actually quite easy. Now getting it to send midi signals to switch patches on my Timefactor took a bit of reading from the manuals but was well worth it.
I'd suggest looking at LavaCable for your pedalboard cables. Mark has given me the absolute, without question, best customer service I've ever had. He's a gem! He also carries the best names in cable around, has a great warranty on them and is very knowledgeable in his recommendations. For a pedalboard you might consider using the Lava solder free pedalboard kit.

I have been reading some very good stuff about the Moog Guitar..Paul Vo Edition..add to that the Moog Foggers analog pedals and you will have a very expensive, yet very sweet analog guitar set-up.
Just read you got your axe...have fun.

Aki - How many individual pedal effects can you load into a patch of the Musicom? Also, how do you program? Thanks and looks cool! |

Thanks aki. Did you notice any drop off in tone from your rig being run through this guy? Also, since they are in loops that can be turned on/off, does that negate the need for "proper pedal order" unless within the same loop? Last edited by 690MBCOMMANDO; 05-26-2009 at 04:30 PM. |

You still need to put the pedals in the proper order. The looper will turn on the loops you want but they are in sequential order like you would have on a regular pedalboard.

These photos are at least a few years old and some of the pedals have been switched out but you can get an idea of the wiring and the size of the unit from the pics.
The pedals are: top: Arion SCH-1 (rehoused for true bypass), Lovepedal COT50, MI Audio Crunchbox, Xotic RC Booster, Zvex Box of Rock, Korg tuner, Loopmaster patch box bottom: old Ibanez DDL delay (sleeper pedal with great transparent delays), Line 6 Echo Park, old 80's Boss Dimension C chorus, MusicomLab switcher, Ernie Ball Jr. volume pedal. My board is pretty different now. The volume pedal, MusicomLab, Loopmaster, tuner, Box of Rock and Dimension C are still on the board. New are the Klon Centaur (second one. I sold my original horseyman one probably around a decade or so ago...), Hermida Mosferatu, Lovepedal Vibe, Eventide Timefactor and a Barber Tone Press.

Surprised no one answered this since you've asked twice. Listen for yourself on PGS' YouTube vid (don't watch all the vids, it is a serious hazard for your budget!): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K_JCDIyVTXI
I really liked the pedal but it was a bit out of my price range in terms of what I needed it for but dang, it is a great, great sounding pedal! I would also look at Dr. Scientist's Reverberator. Now that is a great pedal, I hear it all the time from the electric guitarist that plays at our church. I would actually highly recommend this one based upon the fact that I just like the sounds that it can create in a live situation. |
