David Gilmour pedalboards by Pete Cornish

http://tonefromheaven.com/HistoryPCDG.html

This post is mostly made due to a conversation with a fellow here on SiMPLE.  I told them I would try to find this.

In the meantime, it opens up the potential for discussion.

I am in the midst of a pedalboard upgrade.  I have decided I need a true distortion pedal. Not a Fuzz, not an overdrive.  Anyone have any suggestions?

Also, anyone a fan of the Eventide H9? Or someone so l33t they have all the Eventides so don't bother with the H9?

No it's a Eventide H9 Harmonizer inside joke., it is one of the most desirable and premier pedals of today.  For the new Max version it's $700 new....for Oscar it's passe.

Boss DS-1 is more modern distortion and cheap...some like modding them up which turn them into super distortions...many like 'em that way...total under $75 modded.
Ross Distortion is a mild old school that adds old fashioned full size 500K pots into the loop...nice when you just want the flavor of distortion.

Unless you want fancy boutique pedals...break out the $$...but reasonable pedals like the Weehbo Morbid Drive are around too.

There are tons of resources. 

I play with a guy who makes sound alike You Tube videos once in a while.  He has some of the Pink Floyd and Jimmy page and Hendrix sounds down.

I don't do facebook.  BF1942 is my Internet addiction.

In the guitar world, there are two schools of though (a big generalization), Fender or Marshall Amp. I'm in the Fender camp.

I don't think a Marshall will sound like a Fender.  I have not given up on the Fender sounding like a Marshall yet. In the end, I probably will save up for a Suhr Badger head for Marshall tones, or borrow something when it comes time to record those parts.

It will be a mess if the "owner" of mine wants it back.  :-(

For those of you considering H9 vs. Strymon Mobius - no contest. Don't waste your time with the Mobius.

That one sounds very cool!  I looked it up but I can't find a US dealer.  I will have to hope one pops up on eBay.

This one has caught my eye: http://empresseffects.com/products/multidrive

I am not looking for Fuzz or Overdrive, which this has, but it's distortion seems very flexible and sounds great on the vids.

The DG-1 is supposed to be pretty darn close to the fabled Cornish P-1: http://www.toptone.com.br/?lan=en

The Bogner Burnley Distortion is another on my radar, that I would love to play: http://www.bogneramplification.com/burnley-pedals

Pit, I'll trade a T-Rex Mudhoney for the Ross. Interested?
