I only have time for a few;
Stephen Stills-Melodic, understated but perfect for the psychadelic era!
Adrian Belew-Electronic genius, sonically adventurous, eclectic melodicism. It wouldn’t have been the 80’s without him!
Rick Derringer-Rock ‘n’ Roll soul with great technique!
There are more but must run. I will try to add to this discussion later!

Patrick,
Those are george L’s for sure. I really like them for a couple of reasons. One, is they sound great, or maybe better put, they don’t sound at all, no coloration or loading if you will. To my ears anyway.
Second I like that they are solderless which makes for quick assembly once you get the hang of it.
I am using Monster for the connections between guitar-board and board-amp.
Now I am not Eric Johnson anal about my stuff, but I have no tone or signal loss weather I am straight into the amp or running through the board. Very cool!I like your natural wood pedalboard. i love the risers for monuting stuff underneath. You obviously are meticulous about your stuff which I totally apreciate aesthetically.
What function does the 4 jack box provide for your signal routing?
How are you sticking them to the board?As far as selling, I cant keep them around when I list them so there is a market for them!
In case you missed it check out my personal rig previously on this thread

Nice board. well organized.
Does the Boogie pedal give you that ‘rectifier’ sound?
Did you build the board yourself?
I build small batches of these pedalboards a couple of times a year and sell them on ebay.

Keep up the good work!

Tom,
Thanks for the article. In my personal experience I would like to say this about your definition of luck;
LUCK;
When preparation meets opportunity.
This is where I have found myself in my career. Like any profession, you deliver the goods to your ’employer’ and you continue to work. I have been blessed to have some inate talent, and then developed it into pro level skill’s, and again I have been able to pay the mortgage. No I am not touring with some big name stars, but I am doing it in my own region and enjoying the heck out of being a guitar player at the ripe old age of 45
C-YA!

Lee,
thanks for the compliment.
The VHT Valvulator is a Tube buffer that drops the direct guitar signal from high to low impedence in order to allow the signal not to be affected by the loading of your pedals.As far as placement, I think there is quite a bit of flexability depending on what you want to hear.
This FAQ was helpful for a way to look at things;

Cheerio!
AdamAs far as cables I do use Monster for the guitar and amp connections. I can hear a difference between those and less expensive cables such as Planet Waves or the typical bargain bin types.
The pedalboard though is wired with George L’s. Easy to assemble and sonically pure to my ears anyway!
There is a difference as far as i am concerned, but its what i want to hear. Some people don’t care. Clean, quiet reproduction of my guitars tonal nuances, which the Andersonsons have in abundance is what i want!
BTW the TA Tele has the Kinman Broadcaster pups installed. Very fat and noiseless single coils. He got it right!Here is my current rig.
Hope you like!
