How did you have Lava make your cables?
I ordered their Van den Hul The Bay interconnects, and specified which plugs I wanted, lengths, etc.

Never heard of that. Might have to look into it. I realized in my haste I ignored the proper instructions, so I’ll be repairing every cable end before going that route. Might have to preheat with some Louisiana hot links.I ordered their Van den Hul The Bay interconnects, and specified which plugs I wanted, lengths, etc.
What cables are you using?I finally found time to give a pedal board a go. I've got hair and ground loops to work out, but here's my current setup. Power is from a Voodoo Labs 4x4 underneath.
This project has made me realize several things:
1) I want a GigRig G2.
2) I suck at making cables.
3) I really suck at making cables.
4) I need another PRS guitar.
5) I need a PRS amp.
6) Sausage.
7) Ditka.
Enjoy.
Nothing too complicated, although I could use a bigger board.
I bought a few sets of Lava solder-free cable to try. So far I've only made mediocre cables, but that's because of operator error. Like anything, I'll improve with age, but I'd like to check the disaster area cables out. Thanks for the recommendation.What cables are you using?
I’ve used the lava solderless connectors,
Great sound quality but they are a PITA to make.
A local (to me) pedal shop that builds boards recommended disaster area cables and connects, which is what they use in their builds.
So much easier to make.
What are your thoughts on the TC50?
I picked one up recently.
I just joined the toaster club this week - haven't done more than trying a few presets, but whoa nelly!
That thing is evil. Haven't located one to demo yet but seeing its potential is making me reconsider the amp upgrade I was planning on (MkIV > MkV). In a perfect world there would be nothing but tube amps anyway, but as an apartment player these days the utility is undeniable (and in my current situation, going this route frees up budget space for an increasingly needed second core PRS...). The tweakable looper functions and on-the-fly EXP adjustments sure are spiffy too.
Ugh, my brain hurts.
Color coordination is hugely important on a pedalboard, right?
Yup. Totally.
Criteria:
1) Does the pedal do what I need it to do? Check
2) Is the pedal awesome?
Check
3) Can the pedal fit on my board?
Check
4) Will the pedal's color conflict with my red and grey color scheme (which even includes red and grey cabling)?
Check
You need a Digitech Whammy.I'm being proactive by looking for a red wah pedal. You know, for the larger future red and grey pedal board.
