My suggestion: Micro Q tron-$95.80 Keeley tone workstation-$299.00 JRAD archer-$199.00 TC Alter Ego-$169.99 Boss TU-3-$99.99 Final Cost $863.78 Masons suggestion: Vertex steel string-$199.99 JRAD archer-$199.00 Ibanez TS-Mini-$79.99 Xotic EP boost-$120.00 Ibanez analog delay mini-$119.99 Boss TU-3-$99.99 Final cost $818.96 Cost difference-$44.82 more for my suggestion Some additional points: - For an extra $45 you get much closer to the overdrives and boosts John Mayer actually uses, as the Tone workstation was based on John Mayer’s tonal needs and includes a comp as well as a bluesbreaker/katana boost that are excluded in Masons board, yet are much more central to Mayer’s tone than a Dumble OD and certainly an EP boost which I’m pretty sure he doesn’t really use often/at all. - Moreover, Mayer has used analog delays, tape delays, and digital tape delay emulations, so digital tape echo emulation pedal, would be a much better alternative as it can handle much more of the delay tones of John Mayer. - My suggestion includes an envelope filter which John Mayer is famous for using. - As a final point, if use the same power supply as Mason does in this video (Truetone CS6) you can always one more pedal, as my board concept leaves one free adapter for one more pedal. You can add a wah pedal, Dumble style OD, Boss BD-2 or octave fuzz of your choice to include one of his less frequently used effects.

Ben, I think you make some good points here. A few things to remember, it needed to fit on a Metro 16. You suggestions are larger pedals, this would be problematic to sell the "mini rig" concept of the giveaway pedalboard, nor would they fit with this board platform. Secondly, this giveaway was sponsored by Sweetwater and done in collaboration with them, meaning we had to use pedals that were in stock and available through Sweetwater. I don't see the Keeley Workstation, Alter Ego, or the Micro Q Tron in their inventory or in stock. I think there a lot of way to "Skin The Mayer Cat", I tend to go for more of the Continuum era stuff, and Trio era since that's more of the iconic tone to my ears. These were much more scaled back rigs compared to what's being used now, and pre-dates the use of the filter effects, or any compressor use. In any case, I appreciate your feedback, and certainly if the only criteria was getting there at the lowest cost there would be lot of pivot options to make, differently from what I did with Sweetwater.

Great build! When I use dual lock it always comes off of either the board or the pedal if I try to remove a pedal. Once it comes off it will not stick again. Doesn't seem to matter if I just put the tape on or if it's been on for months.
@VertexEffectsInc3 жыл бұрын
If it’s coming off it’s for two reasons, first reason is you didn’t clean the surface before you applied to dual lock. Second reason would be, it’s supposed to remain sedentary for about 12 to 24 hours before you really start pulling things on and off, almost like a curing of the adhesive. If I follow those steps I’ve yet to have a problem in over a decade
@frankstabler19203 жыл бұрын
I did let it sit for 24 hours. Maybe it's not cleaning the surface well enough. I'll try that next time. I really liked the tip about flipping the bottom of the one pedal over to get a clean surface.

What if you got like 12-14 pedals, and as we know, power supplies basically have like 7-10 outlet wires to power the pedals.. None of them have enough for a whole board.. So do most guitarists with more than 10 pedals on a board use 2 power supplies? I dont see any other way, since power supplies do not really cover more than 10 pedals at the most, right? So would the 2 power supplies cause noise, hum, etc.. how is this solved?

I think you’re off to a great start! Get some high-quality soldered cables in the air, Mogami he would be a good start! 2319 for the Pedalboard, 2524 for your instrument cables.

@@VertexEffectsInc I ordered all the Mogami Cables, tools, ect from the links provided in your Comments on different videos! I was inquiring on pedal placement/ order? Can you recommend what order to place pedals or a site that specifies the best order placement for John Mayer tone? Thanks!

Vertex Effects I have your S.S SRV pedal but I am amp-less at the moment because it was never returned to me from a mod shop that went under. Hopefully I can get an amp to try it out soon!
