Modified my Pedalboard

[Butch Snyder]

So I kept hitting knobs of other pedals when engaging/disengaging pedals. I figured I need to get a switcher and run my pedals though it. Well, that would require buying a new pedalboard plus cables and the switcher. Then I though, "How can I modify this board so I don't hit the other pedals".

I went to Home Depot and bought a 4' long 2"x6" plank. I measured, cut, painted , and attached velcro to it. Problem solved.

Looking good!

Well, that is super-neat!

 

[NegativeEase]

Nice and tight! Bravo!

Thanks all, I tried to remove all the dog hair that seems to be attracted to the velcro.

I thought about posting in his pedalboard review/critique thread, but he already got me on that one.

Well done! Custom pedalboard builders would charge you hundreds of dollars for that, not kidding.

Well, you would also need to put the dog hair back since he personally puts some in his own pedalboard.

Killer. I’m sure some of my dog’s hairs are there as they spread themselves across the universe

That is an Ibanez CS9, I have one. It is a killer 80's chorus. I love the riser on the volume pedal. That is a killer board.

My dog has been dead and buried for over a decade, and I still have her hair on my board. I plan on doing nothing to remove it. It reminds me of when she would curl up in my office between the pedal board and me.

Looks awesome!

Yes, Ibanez CS-9 Stereo Chorus. In my opinion, there are only two chorus units better; the original Ibanez CS-505, which used two 9v batteries and the stereo chorus from a Roland JC-120 amplifier.

I was gonna say - a Brave man....

Honestly, I don't think you have too much to worry about. Looks fantastic!

The EB Volume pedal is one of the best feeling pedals I've ever used. I use mine as an expression pedal, controlling the mix and feedback of the delay (as well as wah and loop volume).

Only issue I had with that VP is the string broke. I found a place that supplied actual cabling for that pedal and bought it. If it breaks, I'm doing something wrong...

 

[Mincer]

The strings break now and then...I've only had that happen once, and EB sells a re-stringing kit. Not the easiest or most intuitive to do, btw.
