Ok, last post for a while  :)

Finally finished up my 125B pedalboard that I have been working towards for a while.  Its a two tiered board, bottom is wrapped in leftover tweed, top has aluminum channel around it (like the bass board I posted last week).  Lots of knobs and switches on this one...

Signal chain is: IO/Buffer & Power -> GuitarPCB Mo-Wah -> Engineer's Thumb (vero) -> Wampler '57 Tweed (vero) -> ROG Britannia (vero) -> DLS MkIII (vero) -> GuitarPCB Lunar Module -> Iron Bell (vero) -> Madbean Fatpants -> GuitarPCB Dr. Phybes Phaser (I already replaced this with a Spaceharp Phaser) -> Madbean Current Lover -> 1776/Jon Patton Cardinal Trem -> 1776 Multiplex Jr. -> Madbean Moodring -> Back to IO/Buffer

Thats a cool approach.
We know that 125 B are only slighly larger than 1590b but due to the jacks at the top this makes a great space saving.

Love it! The 125B is such a sensible box. You can fit a lot in a small space with top mounted jacks. Yet I still find myself cramming stuff into 1590a boxes from time to time...

What you have done is exactly why I got into building pedals.
Although, I haven't actually gotten around to doing that yet.

I have to take a picture of my 1590A board too.  I have 4 boards going right now (I'll put up pictures of my 1590A and large board work-in-progress).  I think my wife is right in saying I have a problem...

Just Brilliant. 12 effects about as compact as you can get.


This is exactly the reason I'm a big 125b fan. In the grand scheme, they take up the same space as a 1590a, but can house so much more.

The board is 24" x 12".  I figure that's pretty compact.  It has just about all flavors of modulation, along with Fender, Vox, Marshall, Fuzz Face and Muff distortions on there

Oh damn...

I may just flatter you in the most extensive way and just duplicate your board!  ;D

So... about that A board... spill it!

Thats a great design there!  And a strong argument for top mounted jacks!

Top mounted jacks on 125B FTW.

Looks great, Dan.  And super space efficient.

Great board Dan, I dig and use the 125B with topmount jacks too, really makes a great compact board and the riser is what I have too.
Well done, great to see. :)

Hmmm. so much great stuff on there... I might just make a new pedal board over the christmas break ;)
would give me the chance to finally hide my big PSU as well as having central in/out jacks on the side of the board.
If i merge all the awesome board stuff I saw here, it will be the king of pedalboards  8)

The 125B really is the perfect guitar pedal enclosure, isn't it?!?!!

I love this. I've assembled many 125B only pedalboards myself. In fact, I have one in the works currently that's very themed. So stoked for that one, but this board is very encompassing.
