    Was just playing my Fender Strat through my Marshall amp with just my red Fuzz Face and my TS-9 (in that order) going into the Marshall set to it's clean channel, it's a bit of an old school way of doing distortion, but geez you can get some pretty cool tones out of it, you get lots of controllable feedback which you can control via the guitar's volume control, I found that there are a few sweet spot settings for the volume control, and you can also control the pitch of the feedback note just by manipulating the trem-bar.

    Cool! I really need the upgrade the amp set up this year, I have persisted with small modeling amps, maybe it’s time to upgrade and get pedalling?

    I'm beginning to suspect it might not have been a pedal board after all.....

    Hahahaha....I think there were ulterior motives, judging by the results.

    I thought the dowels were to hang the patch leads from? 🤪

    Yeah, I thought so too, then I thought that maybe the dowels were supposed to be removed so that you could feed power to each of the pedals.

    Apart from the solid board at one end. it looks like a prototype for some Ashes-winning cricket stumps that won't fall over.

    The board is to protect your tootsies from Yorkers maybe?

    I'm going to be adding two more distortion pedals to my new pedal board, here's the revised pedal chain:

    Going into my Marshall's input:

    Guitar, Jim Dunlop JD-F2 Fuzz Face, Jim Dunlop JH-1 Jimi Hendrix Wah, Ibanez TS-9 Tube Screamer, Boss BD-2 Blues Driver, Boss MT-2 Metal Zone.

    The Marshall's FX Loop:

    Boss CH-1 Super Chorus, Boss RE-20 Space Echo.
