The Ziegler Boardzilla

Here is a board we finished this week for my good friend John Z. This is one of the biggest boards we have done. The power supply and interface alone that Martin built took two days to make. Fifteen hours, sixty feet of cable and over sixty Switchcraft ends later-----Boardzilla was born. The sounds that this board gets are unlike anything I have heard. Also there are some of the most rare and expensive pedals out there on it.

 

The signal path is as follows: Custom interface (with built in buffer, power for three pedals, effects loop, Tube reverb loop, footswitch thru, tuner send)---Hi-watt wah--Ross compressor--Whammy--Boss slow gear--Maestro Filter factory--Mutron Octave divider--Octavia--Prescription Univibe---MXR Phase 90--mystery pedal--Univox Super Fuzz--DOD 250--ADA Flanger--MXR Chorus--Boss Vibrato--BFD Tremelo--Interface.

 

All the pedals except the Wah are in Loop Master strips. The effect loop send of the amp goes into the interface then to the Volume pedal then to the input of the Xotic X-blender out to a Echoplex EP-4. The vintage Fender Reverb Unit plugs into the REVERB send of the interface into the Xotic X-Blender send and return(blending the dry and the reverb out to the effects loop return. John is using a Diamond Phantom head into a 4x12 with G12H 30's.

 

If you would like to hear this board in action be sure to stop by the Baked Potato on Monday. John is sure to get some amazing tones and well as throwin down some incredible playing.

 

I have to rest now.
