Here’s mine:


Obviously I play electric guitar too.
The electric side is Tuner - EP Boost - Deluxe Memory Man.
The acoustic side is the BBE preamp with the Boss Delay and Line 6 reverb in the FX loop. A second Korg tuner in the tuner out of the BBE.

I’m really enjoying this rig. Simple FX, but they all sound really good.

Does the electric side go into an amp?

Yup, I use a THD Univalve head with a 1x12 cabinet. Nice little amp, it has an attenuator so that you can get cranked tube tone at any volume.
Acoustic just goes out DI from the BBE.

I can't post pictures, but I currently go as indicated in the signature, all crammed in a totally gutted Boss BCB-60 pedalboard. The ZoomA2/JamMan Solo is an interesting combination, allowing me to save Zoom beats on the looper for better access & control during solo practice. I mostly use the A2 as an effect box (chorus, phaser and flanger). The only other "effect" I have is the compressor on the most soft and transparent setting possible, but the jury is still out as to getting a dedicated comp pedal. I previously used a BBE OptoStomp which worked pretty well, but adding the Zoom created a real-estate management issue. I use the 12 str. detune mode when I won't be bothered to carry the Takamine. I also sometimes use the autowah mode when I have the Montage on OD (never use it on acoustic, it sounds like crap and I don't see the point anyway). The Marshall Echohead is a very underated delay pedal the main modes (hi-fi, analogue and echo) all sound great on acoustic. The only foreseeable change at this time is the EHX LPB-1: even though it's great at what it's supposed to do, I would love to get a Custom Audio Electronics booster.


By the way, the plain floor pic was priceless. PRICELESS !! I lolled at that one, kudos to the dude.

My current setup is guitar > Zoom A2 > Digitech Jamman Solo > Fishman Loudbox. I have about 5 patches on the A2; a clean one, 2 for chorus, and 2 delays (1 set with a boost on the volume for solo work). I have two other pedals, a Zoom G3 that I'm working into the mix, and another one that has really surprised me. B Behringer GDI21, their version of a Tech21 Sansamp. My typical playing live is to lay down an acoustic groove and loop it with the Jamman and then come back and solo over the top. Now what I don't want is full on distortion. Not looking for that Marshall wall of sound with my Les Paul, but rather a boost in the volume with a slight touch of overdrive to get the guitar to stand out from the looper. Well about a week or two ago I through the GDI21 in front of the A2 while playing around and was surprised by how it worked in my situation. Don't know if I will keep it in my setup or not. But currently it provides me with a nice little overdrive.

Here's the board I just finished building for my acoustic/mandolin rig:





Order is Guitar/Mando > Boss GE7 (Clean Boost) > Boss DD-20 > Loop-Master A/B > DTar Solstice. The A/B also has a tuner mute that runs to the TC Electronics Polytune.

On a side note, I routed out some of the Pedaltrain Jr. in order to run an extension cord from the courtesy outlet of the PP2 Power Supply to the underside of the board. The power supply for the Solstice plugs into that and is held in place with Velcro on the underside. As such, the entire board runs off of one power cord. Works and sounds great!

I usually use a Zoom A2 and a Tap tempo pedal in my Fender T-Bucket. It sounds really great!
Sometimes I use a Boss SD-1 to boost or a Zoom G1xN to Wah.

I realize I'm totally resurrecting this thread from the dead but when I first saw it I was working on my pedalboard and I made a note to post a shot once I finally got it done. So anyways, here's mine. Relatively simple but it does the job.

Some great stuff guys, acoustics are so special and so unpredictable in so many situations. Keep them coming.

Forgive my ignorance Andre, what's the big black unit that's taking up most of the space?

Hi hansentj, you are forgiven . It is Avalon U5 preamp/DI box. They are usually white but this is Anniversary edition they made black, thus maybe confusion. I wanted to cover it as much as I can as it is costly unit and did not want big white thing shining in front of me... Very good unit. Gives that "something" to the acoustic guitar sound.
