I have a pile of other stuff that comes and goes as I feel the need for it. I have PILES of stuff around home. Wah's, ect. I own about 60 pedals.

I also use a old Roland String Synth with a Digitech SD-100 and a Electrix Vocoder, and a old Roland 606 Drum machine.

Space Noise/Slo-Core/Ambient Loop washes. It's a one piece band, with me looping all the parts. Vocals are done either NON-Processed (Exception of Chorus, Reverb, or Delay), but in all honesty, most are vocodered. it is almost 100% done in real time as well.....

I spend far too much time tap dancing and running around like a mad man.....

I forgot a few things, like 2 Danelectro French Toasts and A Boss Hyper Fuzz.....Also a Dunlop Wah with the sweep tripled that I use more as a filter then a wah wah. I am just bought on of danelectro mini-reverb, which will probably be replaced by the spring king with the cool kick pad. Also a RV-5 and a DD-6 are both looking sexy to my eyes.

Also, A guy locally is making copies of the Phasor built into a Arp 2600. 14 step phasing. It sounds beautiful.

And I wonder why I am always broke.

Also the looping fourm is great, and my website is on the way.

Very soon. Somewhere. besonic.com is free,mp3.com is 40$ USD be careful with mp3.com anything you put on there is now property of mp3.com so if you have a song on there and it gets popular you see **** all for profits.

cant wait to hear you man

I sold the Blue Driver, the Big Muff I traded for a small stone, the Digitech Talker I sold. I still have everything else.

I would be showing you pic of my floor covered in pedals and wires.

I currently do not have a rig as I am not giging at all. Look for a new photo late november.

Depends. I usually just make a small rig and work with it, figuring out while playing what I need.

Like, right now my rig is:

Tele-Volume-DM2-Akai Headrush-DE7-Magic stomp-DL4(loop)-POD

That is a basicish sort of rig I will use right now.

If I am recording, i have started to do it track by track, so I work out the fx chain and go from there. This give me way more routing abilities and some really ****ed up and weird sounds.

I really dislike playing live, esp. this stuff as I jsut can't do it. Too much, too complex rig wise. Next show I am just doing soundscapes, so my rig will be pretty minimal in nature.

Always wondered...what do you use for a volume pedal??


I think i need to move to canada. There is certainly no place around here that wants to see a guy make soundscapes with his guitar. Although that's what i'd like to be doing right now. try that at a gig in New haven, ct and you'll get pummelled with tomatoes.

Don't worry, the only place I can play in ottawa is at industrial nights as they have a large section of ambinet fans.

And weird little noise shows with 12 people.

And on the Volume pedal bit, I use it mostly for swells, and to adjust my overall volume as the knob on a les paul are impossible to work with.

Oh man, I need to stop posting EARLY in the day for me(which is anytime between 2pm and 4pm).

I used a couple Korg expression pedals, I also have another cheap one i really dislike. The korgs and plastic, but really solid. they also work as expression pedals for the DL4:)

No I haven't. I rarely even look at guitar rags anymore, maybe I will take a moment to have a peak at it:).

And MY GOD STOP POSTING HERE PEOPLE THIS RIG IS SO ****ING OLD.

That is awesome, man. I can see myself having upwards of 20-30 pedals within the next five years, but you, my friend, are a true obsessive pedal fiend.

You need to come down here soon so we can put out something.

HEAVY SOUND that takes the phrase "wall of sound" to a new level.

Wow. And I turned 17 on the same day. Weird.

*Rubs eyes*

I really should start reading the original post dates before I reply to anything I suspect looks a bit out of date...
