Show your board!

Sorry chaps, I don't have a photo, but for the last 30 years, it's been the same MIDI controller as in post #25, with a Morley Wah to the left (I'm left footed), and a Morley ABY switcher above it, directing between the rack and a Boss TU-2 tuner.
Power for the Ground Control comes down the MIDI cable from the rack, and the Wah only gets connected when needed - it affects the sound even when it's off.
For the last couple of years, I've been phasing the rack rig out in favour of a Helix and Powercab 212+.

Drank the Rockboard kool-aid a few years ago. The top board is for studio use only, too dang big to lug around. The bottom board was for use at the bass player or singer’s house as they each have practice spaces too. Both are now in semi retirement as a Tone Master Pro was added to the gear earlier this year.

Don’t lug around?
Sorry I play live, and I have to lug my stuff everywhere. I don’t sit home and play with myself.
Since going to modelers almost 2 decades ago, I’m loving life. My pedal board changes every song.
This weekends board consisted of:
2 delays (each pre set to the tempo of the each song in the set lists), a chorus, 4 different ODs, 2 reverbs, a shimmer effect, etc. This weekend it was all powered by an AC 30.
I adore being able to set time based effect by song. I don’t have the Edges budget or resources to handle that for me. I just walk in and set the tempo on each patch (every song in the setlist has its own patch, well at least one).
My latest gig had me ending a solo with delay at 132 bpm. Next song (no break between them) has me open with a solo needing delay at 87 bpm. No time for tap tempo.

Yep, that’s why I bought the Tone Master Pro modeler for playing live. There’s a few songs I have 2 completely different rigs setup and switch to the second one going into the bridge of the song.

Like T-Burst, I play live and have to lug my gear on and off stages, sometimes with 5 or 10 minutes of setup before a line check. I've gone as simple and effective as I can. Here's the latest with the exception that I've replaced the Boss Tremolo with a JHS Unicorn.

That dude on the left is Victory's The Kraken. It's their 5150 model and Rabea Massad's signature model. Killer tone and has both DI for FOH and speaker out for a monitor. I'm using either my Carvin 2x12 or the Fender 1x12 just to give me some stage volume.
 
I think I'm going to add two more ...... wires. I might not wait for the GT2 to die before getting the Mayfly sim ... so many pedals .... so little time. Probably should neaten it up a little before adding more, but I got the "Notaklon" kit, so, they'll be at least another addition.

You got a nonaklon? Let us know what you think of it!

In all honestly I have yet to hear a Klon that I actually liked...

I have no experience (or interest, really) in the whole Klon deal. I do, however, love my J.Rockett Archer Clean as an "end of the line" style boost pedal. There is just something about what it does to the sound that I can't explain ... but I love!
 
I fell for the marketing spoo on the Notaklon, it was brilliant .... I've always been a Tube Screamer and progeny fan, my favorite is one made by BBE .... We'll see ... Anyway ... music keeps me out of trouble.
It looked such a fun thing, and I must have hit the ordering cycle at just the right moment as I got it in a month.

I think the whole point of it, is to show that there's nothing special about a Klon that costs $3000, or frankly any of those other $500+ pedals that couldn't be replicated for $100 and assembled by a simpleton. If it's as good as a TS clone, it'll be keeper. Could be a big meh.
