Space themed board

LuttiS · July 2017

So over the weekend I got to drinking thinking with a mate of mine about themed boards, not through any desire to build one but just to see if it could be done..

So we thought about a "Space" themed board..
We tried to think of pedals that had either "space" artwork or title/name i.e. anything known as a "space delay" didn't count unless it was actually called "space delay" etc.. you get the idea..

As this was late at night/early in the morning we didn't quite make it... We came up with several hundred Delays/Reverbs.. Eventide Space/Black hole, CKK Space Station Pro, TC Nova Delay, many more..

Then others.., TC Hypergravity (Comp) and TC Vortex (Flanger - i thought this would be ok as Flash Gordon goes through the imperial Vortex.. in space

) Walrus Jupiter Fuzz..

I figure there must be like a gabillion pedals we missed, as my grandma used to say: "delay and reverb does not a pedal board make"

Any thoughts on completing this hypothetical board?

There's obviously the Roland Space Echo.

You could also have a sunface fuzz and an EHX Pulsar.

Remember though that green ODs are obviously not allowed because in space no one can hear you scream.

To be fair you could just do it all with pedals by Spaceman guitar effects...

Death By Audio Interstellar Overdriver
EQD Grand Orbiter phaser and Interstellar Orbiter dual resonant filter
Skreddy Lunar Module fuzz

You could probably squeak in an original Tycobrahe Octavia given its namesake, or a Foxrox ZIM

All those and a Space Echo would make a pretty sweet pedalboard.

Someone needs to do a Klongon drive pedal with Star Trek graphics.

And then there was this...

The internet brings many possibilies.. and makes me actually want to make a board like this, as i imagine it could be pretty good..

It would be a wondrous thing.. There would be so many coloured LEDs and flashing lights.. because we all know that the spectacularness of a pedal board is determined by the lights..

there would probably be a rocket ship in there somewhere too..

I actually picked one up a couple of weeks ago for my 'orange-themed board' and am very impressed with it so far. Even just as an independent boost it's great, so I've been replacing my boost pedal on other gigs with it and gained the option of auto-wah for some tracks.
