Somewhat yes!
I'm going to stop at building my own amp though.
For now.
Come on, Serg...go ahead and JUMP!I'm on the ledge about buying one of those EVH phasers.

Here is my board! I have a Boss ME-80 that I sometimes add to give myself more options.

I'm about to build a new board. It just came out of paint the other day.

Nice!
That does look nice, what is it?

Looks like it could almost be a Schmidt Array.
CORRECTAMUNDO! It's a Schmidt Array SA525 with a lid. This is a slightly narrower but deeper model that has more overall room than their bigger models with pedals. This one is designed to accommodate three Strymon wide pedals in a row. I plan on adding a satellite with pedals in a separate unit, possibly. The picture shows the lid frame; it will be covered on top by brushed aluminum. It'll eventually be a grab and go pedal platform complete with patch-wired connector boxes on right and left. All I have to do is connect the externals and I'm good to go, baby! This board is going to be controlled by a Gigrig G2 paired with a Selah Effects Quartz V3--a 12-channel MIDI stack delivery pedal. If you haven't heard of the Quartz V3, check it out, it's insane. I'm going to use it as a global tap-tempo setter and MIDI slave. Tap the tempo on the V3 and it sets it for all MIDI-connected pedals simultaneously. If I don't go blind and deaf setting it up, I'll post a few pics once she's all put together.
Word.
We will find out. The frame is made of birch plywood, so it shouldn't be that heavy. Obviously heavier than a Pedal Train board, but I want to simplify the gig I/O and just plug into the side of the box and be done. Plus the SA boards have two levels, so I'll be able to hide some surprises underneath the top level. My board is also specifically designed for the Gigrig G2, so it will be a better fit all around. Not cheap, for sure, but it should pay for itself with fewer headaches.Holy Carp! How much does a fully loaded board like that weigh including power supply?
