Jesse Trbovich’s pedalboard has some old favorites and custom pieces on it. The signal starts at the Xotic SP Compressor (used to fatten his Tele and for smoother tracking out of the EHX Bass MicroSynth), then hits the Crowther Audio Hotcake (set for a light boost or slight overdrive), Trbo Face (silicon Fuzz Face clone with a BC108 transistor that Jesse built himself), Electro-Harmonix Bass MicroSynth (volume-swelling textures), Moog MF Trem (set to mimic a Vox-style tremolo), Moog MF Flange, Trbo-Vibe (another stompbox built by Jesse—it’s an old Uni-Vibe pedal with a modern power supply), ZVEX Box of Rock, EarthQuaker Devices Disaster Transport, Ernie Ball Volume Pedal, and a Korg Pitchblack tuner. An Eventide PowerFactor 2 is along for the ride to keep everything running smoothly.
