Now I have a pedalboard I'm happy with sound wise it still pisses me off with random gremlins and fussy pedals - or knobs moving between gigs.
It's fine for big shows ( we do lots of parties and weddings ) but our drummer (i know I shouldn't be taking advise from a drummer but he's got a lot of pro tour experience) sai last night "if you strip your board back to the absolute minimum you can get away with for a pub gig, what would you need.?"
So I thought about it and came up with tuner, drive and delay.
So I've set myself a ceiling of £100 to do just that. I was going to use a pedaltrain nano but that's half my budget gone already (suggestions welcome on alternatives). Then a cheapy tuner - mooer, eno, snark - that kind of thing, a TS like drive - bad monkey maybe? - and a joyo analog delay
I'd need to use both channels on my supersonic which is a shame as that involves using a 4 button midi footswitch
Thoughts on boards to use or suggested pedals? Also does anyone else use a 2nd board or am I just being OTT!!!

(It fell off its stand!)
My tiny board has a yamaha dg stomp, eb volume and a snark tuner. I could gig with it into a clean amp or I can change amp channels via midi and use it just for fx. I was thinking about using it at friday's gig where the stage is tiny instead of the silly huge board I normally use.
Could still be the way to go
I just love stomps
Seriously - I have a problem!
