Pedalboard Prototype attempt #583

I have been brewing a cardboard pedalboard with minimal results, so I am determined to get a prototype done. I found this custom pedalboard online to use as a model for my prototype. I keep coming back to a 2 tier design because alot of junk like the power supply/distribution can be stored underneath the platform.

BOSS DS-1 Swap

Straight trade for Mosky Golden Horse. Met at Del Mar Post Office so fairly easy. 9v Battery was included!


Boss DS-1 Distortion Pedal - $35 (San Diego)


BOSS RC-3 Flipper

Gonna try to eek out 50 bucks. The seller would not come to Del Mar so meeting in PQ. Last one I sold was for $150 but was practically new. Perhaps I can start at $150 and monitor.

2019.08.13: SOLD for $150 - fees totaling $134, making for $54 profit.

Boss RC-3 Loop Station - $80 (Scripps Ranch) 






Boss RC-3 Loop Station. Lightly used. Great Condition.

The Boss RC-3 is powerfully equipped yet conveniently housed in a compact pedal. Enjoy up to three hours of stereo recording time, storage for 99 loops, a "real drums" rhythm guide, and USB 2.0 compatibility all in a small BOSS stompbox.

    LovePedal Pedal Swap

    Working another cl pedal swap.

    Outgoing:
    • Mosferatu (clone)
    • FuzzFace (Mosky clone)
    Incoming:
    • Lovepedal Amp 50
    • EHX Big Muff Pi

    Lovepedal Amp 50 & Electro-harmonix Little Big Muff Pi - $1 (Encinitas) 


    Two amazing OD/distortion pedals!

    Lovepedal Amp 50 - $65

    Electro-harmonix Little Big Muff Pi - $50

    From Musician's Friend site:

    "Lovepedal's Amp 50 overdrive effect pedal is the most compact version of the Church Of Tone series. The circuit has been modified to give cleaner tones at the bottom of the gain/bias sweep and dirtier tones at the top. It can function as a clean boost, dirty boost, stand alone OD or gnarly fuzz box depending on the amplifier used, guitar vol. adjustment and gain/bias control setting. This Lovepedal overdrive effect will also stack unbelievably well with other drive units leading to increased sustain, tone and overall dynamics."

    "Little Big Muff puts this legendary distortion/sustainer in a more compact and rugged die-cast box, but the sound is true to the 1970 original--silky smooth violin-like sustain that lets you hold a note for an entire set. Sustain, Tone, and Volume knobs."

    BOSS RC-1 Mega-Swap

    After offering a trade for a Boss RC-1, the barrage of wheeling and dealing ensued resulting in the below.

    Outgoing:
    • Zendrive Clone
    • FuzzFace (Mosky)
    • OCD (Mosky)
    • TubeScreamer (Mosky)
    • DynaComp (Mosky)
    Incoming:
    • Boss RC-1
    • DOD FX40-B Equalizer
    • DOD FX75B Flanger (Always on)
    • Line 6 POD 2.0 (no output)

    2019.05.16: After buying an AC/AC power supply for the Line 6, the unit fired up and works perfectly. With that confirmation, the trade worked out to be very lucrative broken down below.

    OUT: $20x5=$100, IN: $70+$60+$45+$50=$$225

    Simple math brings it to $125 in my favor. Or perhaps I am flattering myself...?

    2019.06.07: Sold RC1 for $50 profit on reverb.com
    2019.08.08: Sold POD 2.0 for $25 profit on reverb.com
    2019.08.09: Sold DOD EQ Pedal for $53 profit on reverb.com
    2020.07.06 Sold DOD Flanger for $50 profit on reverb.com

    End result is $78 profit. Not exactly what I thought, but still not bad.

    By the way do you know how to fix pedals ? I have a pod line 6 guitar effect pedal with its bag and power supply. It turns on but I can’t get sound, it turns on and shows you the numbers and everything but doesn’t sound. If you wanna throw something for it and know how to fix it. Go ahead. Her is the pics of it
