I’m glad you asked! It’s not very clear from the pic, but the cables underneath are a bit all over the place:
guitar->QTron (first because then how hard you pick determines how much wah… rather than coming after something with a buffer/compressor/etc.)
->Phase 90
->e-lady
->OD-200 (I’m a “dirt before compression” kinda guy, a la Trey Anastasio)
->comp
->superfuzz (which I just use as an always-on boost lately)
->tuner
->El Cap
->DD-500
->Specular Tempus
->looper
-> JC-40 amp
Everything from the El Capistan onwards is stereo.
The looper is actually not normally on the board since I really only use it in my bedroom, but the space was there so I put it! And lo and behold I did find myself using it once at a jam at a friend’s house recently.
My current setup! btw the black one in the upper left is a hand-painted (by my kid) Behringer Super Fuzz.
What’s the signal path?
