Assembling a pedalboard

[Rayman]

I’ve never really been an effects guy, but I’ve been assembling a modest board for some upcoming gigs….. just waiting for an OC-3 to arrive…..

Which case are you using there?

[Rayman]

I’ve had it years….. a cheapo aluminium case by Black Cat.

You’ve opened a Pandora’s Box. Be wary, lest it consumes you, haha

I've been using one of these cases for about 10 years, they are really tough. Mine is branded Stagg but PMT sell them under the name TourTech https://www.pmtonline.co.uk/tourtech-ttc-up535-effector-case-pedalboard-hard-case

I've got two of those. I've just had to remove the "carpeting" on the big one (and the rubber lining under it) and replace it with a sheet of loop material. The small one is about to get some pedals put into it, the whole layout is going to be dry-run before putting it into place when the patch cables arrive.

Welcome down the rabbit hole - enjoying the hyperdrive?

Yeah, it's awesome,  just the right amount of crunch, although,  I'm keen on trying the new Frank Bello Sansamp thing. 

 

I also bought a TC chorus today,  so the board's filling up fast.

There's a whole dedicated thread to pedal boards.

If the "carpet" on the base does pull away, here's what I used to replace it: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/334573958726
