My revamped small board... the OD in the front is a JHS Sweet Tea, like a Marshall Guvnor and TS9 all in one, really cool. I may switch it out for the Plexitone (new small one) or the XTS Atomic OD, depending on the gig. Fun fun fun! The Seven Sisters comp is killer and super little (obviously). Red Witch Chorus gets the Robbie Blunt/Plant thing, love that.. and the Flint is awesome. The rest stays the same...... El cap, script Phase 90, Polytune, Koko... I'm actually a Glab endorser, but the old PP2+ was already on there and it fits really well. it works fine, i'd switch to a Glab but it ain't broke, so.... :rock:
 
Awesome board! Would love to hear it....hint hint.

So you put the mini Polytune on the large board and the large Polytune on the mini board :lol: :LOL:
 
Awesome Pete... Quick question for ya!!!

That JHS sounds like it covers a TON of ground. In what specific gig/instances would you swap out for the XTS or the Plexitone and why?

hi Kage! Probably just when a certain pedal matches with a certain amp best. I still really dig the Plexitone- it works best in front of amps with a Neutral clean (read:not bright and mid scooped, like a Fender)... like an AC30 normal channel. It's killer into that. Whereas the Atomic and Sweet Tea will work into Fender type cleans really well.
 
The sweet tea is an AMAZING pedal! I'm in love with those JHS boxes. Cool board!
 
Just saw the pic in FB :), nice stuff in there!

And killer neat job by mr. Friedman again.

Really intrigued by the JHS btw, it's a new thing for me. Competition for the Plexitone eh?
 
killer board , i was going to ask have you got it patched up to easily connect the modulation/delay pedals to the fx loop (depending on setup ofc) or is this just for going through the front of an amp?

i was trying out delays/reverbs in front of the gain channel of the jet city i picked up and actually quite liked what i heard not quite as defined but had something to it, and reverb before chorus is pretty funky,
 
I really like the Polytune pedals. Tell me about the Koko Boost Pete. How well does the buffer work? Have you tried the board without the Koko to hear the difference? I'm looking at adding an Iso Boost to my board ATM. Worth it?
 
I don't mean to be a dick, but JHS should come up with something original.
The Sweet tea is a 1:1 ripoff of the MI Audio Crunchbox layout from Mad Beans not even a single part changed, the TS part is a simple TS clone and it is tossed in 1 enclosure. For 315$ a bit steep.
