I used to be a guy with a space station and got really over pedals. Here is what i am rocking now. I would love to see what you guys are all using. (Need to find a center positive cable to hook the surfybear to my pedal power.

This is all I need. I prefer the Blue Sky to my Fender 6G15, it's much more versatile.

Here's the rig i use for surf, the Surfybear is represented by the small silver pedal in the middle, it's a true bypass loop pedal.
Here's all five of my boards. I play a lot of different styles, so i made subdivided boards that can attach together with locks. Of course it's not practical to plug them all into each other, that's why i prefer to break them up into separate parts.

the BlueSky is a killer verb. I had one but really only use spring these days.

Just two pedals right now:
Electro-Harmonix Oceans 11 Reverb and EHX C9 organ emulator.
I'll add a delay pedal later on.
The "pedal board" is a folding metal mesh shelf unit I had in the garage!

Here's my main pedalboard...
That I use with these amps...
Here's my secondary pedalboard...
That I use with these amps...
With the addition of my SurfyBear Compact (love it!) on my main board, I moved my SurfyBear Classic to use with the Fender Excelsior Pro, Vox AC15C1TV, and Fender Vaporizer.
Finally, my bass pedalboard for my Fender Super Bassman...

Current pedalboard - I use the built in reverb in my Princeton Reverb or Dr. Z Maz18.
As much as I love Fender reverb (either the Tremolux or the Princeton Reverb flavors), having the tremolo options on the Mobius, including harmonic trem are great. Being able to change speed on the tremolo or rotary with the mini volume pedal? Even better.

I like your concept. I’ve been thinking along similar lines, with perhaps a general purpose board (which would also be my Surf board) and have some other, more specialized boards which I could use as needed.
Nice cat, BTW.

Here’s my main board. I use either a Super Chili Picoso MOSFET boost or an EHX Soul Food, up front. The EarthQuaker Devices Dispatch Master is a hall reverb/digital delay. It makes for a great generic sound, for Country. Think Chet Atkins.
The Blue Nebula is a very versatile pedal with delay, an emulation of Abby Road’s plate reverb and a few other tricks up its sleeve. This pedal was made as a way to package the delay patters Hank Marvin used in the Shadows. It’s highly configurable and if you are willing to do a little editing of config files, you can make this into a powerhouse. It also allows you to name the patches you create, so I use it as a setlist with patches to match each song. Just click to go from patch to patch and your setlist is right in front of your nose.
The Catalinbread Topanga is familiar to most of us here and, IMHO, is about as close as you can get to a tank without having an actual tank. The switch with a Siamese cat logo controls the tremolo on my Winfield Tremor and the little square box is a buffer. This board sounds great, with no signal losses. For most gigs, this is all I need.

Syncro, i dig your board, looks super practical, no nonsense. I imagine that Blue Nebula is dreamy. And i like that cat sticker!
The cat in my pic is named Pee Wee, he's not afraid of the amps, even when they're cranked, in fact i play less because he's usually in that room, and i don't want him to suffer from hearing loss, and of course i can't kick him out of his room. I wait until he's out then I'll be playing at around 90db and that little bum will push the door open and come over to my amps and stick his claws right into the grille clothe of my amps because he knows that's the best way to get my attention. Cats... rulers of earth.

Thanks SandBug
The Blue Nebula is amazing. The variety of delays, coupled with the programmability makes for an amazing combination. Couple in a Plate reverb that is world class and a lot of my needs are fulfilled. The Topanga provides the metallic aspect of Spring reverb, for those songs where I need that, but the Plate emulation is excellent and drips like all get out, of its own.
The switch with the cat on it is made by Kartakou. Your text to link here... They have several models, including a non-latching one. The eyes are purple LEDs, so when the tremolo is active, the eyes flash. Being a cat person, and especially a Siamese cat person, I couldn't resist having a Siamese pedal. Besides that, the flashing LEDs give a good visual indication that the tremolo is active and this is powered by the current in the switch circuit.

My cat seems to love when I play music and usually sits on my chair during band practice. While she's sensitive to most noises, she doesn't seem to mind an amp at moderate volume. Just like your cat, she knows that claws on grillclothes instantly make any cat the center of attention.

The purple LED eyes on that controller are too cool.

LOL. And that's why we love them.

I love the LED eyes on that pedal and the flashing is actually a useful feature.
Any cat person knows that cats win our love in strange ways. My cat tries to walk on my guitars while I’m playing, including trying to walk up the bass side of the neck. This is an innovation that I call the Siamese Guitar Mute. I’ll provide details once the patent has been issued.
