  1. Thanks for the link!Looks good and is certainly a decent price. Does it work alright with pedals like The Rat or any of the EH pedals with a different power input size?I have found a box online that costs 50 and that has cables specifically for these pedals and the line 6 modellers but they cost an extra 4 each.

    Pedalboards, Pedal Board Cases, Effects Pedal Power Supplies and the Finest Hand-built British Guitar Amplifiers by Diago - Overview - that shows all the stuff it can do and the prices are in the "shop" section.

    Diago Powerstation Compatability - shows just what that box is capable of.

    According to that site, pedals such as the line 6 DL4 use 9V AC power compared to the Boss pedals which use 9V DC. Having consulted guitar shops, I understand that buying a separate adaptor would ensure a "hum" free signal although it should work fine on a DC adaptor. I have very little knowledge in this area though and have no idea whether buying a DC only box (like the one Sound Lab one) to run my pedals, which include the Rat and the DL4, would either damage them or cause the box to "blow" as a result of powering something it really wasn't designed for.

    There are links on the Diago site to their competition but I've yet to come across anything that suits.

    I have a separate plug for the DL4 - so i wouldnt know, sorry!

    I had RnB solder a new head onto one of the cables so i could use it to power my EHX smallstone when i bought the unit, ivor did it without too much complaint :p works fine with my smallstone , so yes it will be fine for your Rat or and EHX pedals.

    As for the DS-1, when it comes in i'm giving it to lame guitarist on these boards to do some of his mods on it, just to make it a bit beefier. The metal muff dies all the time, and besides its a bit toooo high gain for me.

    a really, really good resource for effects pedals stuff is the Kit And Tab section of Muse Messageboard - Powered by vBulletin - whether you like muse or not, that forum's a fucking gold mine of information.

    anyone want to buy an epi les paul custom? heh

  2. its a soundlab pedal power box, the very same as the one in that link shaun's posted. it does up to 6 pedals. i got it from RnB for about 30 or so, and they can re-solder the power cables ends so they fit any 9v pedal (provided they have the head you need). the supplied cables are a bit short for my liking though, and i am hopeless with soldering and that, so got my grandfather (an electrician) to knock me out some longer ones

    on the other board i actually have a power supply i got off of ebay for 12, its on a daisy chain so i use it to power the fuzz factory, tuner and metal muff (soon to be modded DS-1).

    The sound lab box is ace though, recommend it for doing the job on a budget

  3. ' date=' post: 419685"']speaking of MCR's new single (teenagers i believe); which, in my opinion, is gross. have they taken the 'dad rock' out of the 12 bar blues and injected it with some "gothic edged - American hard rock"?

    if it is, it would be quite ironic really, as it would be solid evidence (for those who don't yet believe) that MCR are utter shite

    .....eh?

    (not sticking up for MCR here, neccesarily but...what the hell are you on about?)
