New "Bass VI" Board Day!

And excuse to build not one, but two boards specifically intended for the Bass VI cousin in our house, the Jag Baritone Custom

So, on the Boss board -- some oldies that had been floating on standby in my drawer and a couple new pickups to fill things out up there. The SD-1 was purchased last for the board, I've never had one. I like it. I thought it would do well on something Cure-adjacent, and be good to have around as a practical utility pedal. The LMB-3 was bought for this board, too, after I realized it was going to be a Bass VI board. Still dialing things in, but sounds great so far, quite enjoying the simplicity of it.

The minis board is a way to add a Rat and Flanger to a bunch of new impulse buys and get something useful. A Bass VI board that's probably a little closer sonically to my typical main/live board. Rat goes to Turbo in this one, though, and still figuring out the reverb, it's got a lot of nice options.

Either of these could make for a fun "I wanna shake things up" for recording tones or writing/noodling on guitar, too, but both have been killing it so far the past couple days as dedicated Bass VI-type setups.
