About a month ago I bought a T-Rex Creamer reverb pedal, because my JTM45RI doesn't have a build in reverb. I really like the Creamer and in particular the spring reverb. After some failed attempts to repair my T-Rex Tremster it was offered to the god of great tone, and replaced by a Carl Martin Surf Trem. The Surf Trem is a different kind of beast, but sounds fine for classic tremolo with the depth at moderate levels. A Voodoo Lab Tremolo would have been a better replacement due to it's tweakable options though, but I fell in love with the price for the Surf Trem With the addition of the reverb the board is getting pretty crammed. Although I swore to never take the Mudhoney off the board I think I'll replace it with a T-Rex Møller. I actually had a Møller a few years ago, and that's one pedal I regret selling. I think the Møller with it's lesser drive and ability to mix drive and clean and adding clean boost on top of it is better suited in front of the JTM45 than the Mudhoney, which seems to become too much rather quickly. Or maybe my ears have changed over time really. I have come to like the Soul Food a lot as a cleanish boost. Maintains the the exact tone of the guitar without colouration, at least with moderate drive. I don't fancy it with the drive much past noon though. Anyway here is a photo of my current board.

Nice! I actually played a Carl Martin trem while my voodoo lab was being repaired. (They had footswitch problems for a while.) I really liked the CM! I'd be just fine with both, but having the level control on the VL is certainly nice, and the wave shapes are cool. You did good!

I've never used any of those pedals but I like your set-up. Easy to manage, just the way I like it.

The Soul Food is one of the better stomps ever built in my opinion...
After listening to comparisons on good speakers and playing with my SF, a Klon does not interest me in the least... The Soul Food is da cheeze...
I do want to get a Simble one day...
