That actually gives me an idea, i wonder if they make drawers you can put into rack boxes, i could keep my spare stuff in there instead of carrying around a tackle box.

Honestly, why look for excuses to buy more stuff that you don't need, and will have to schlep?
I would seriously look into a smaller rack, instead of trying to fill a large one.

I understand the fun and vanity of the OP but if I can interject with a practical question: If your rig sounds good, why add weight just to fill empty space? Blank rack plates (solid or perforated) are fairly cheap...a smaller rack is even better (please don't take that out of context).

Or you could go with something completely bonkers:

+1

I picked up a 6-space rack last year on a good deal, but sold it a couple months ago as there was just no reason for me to use 6 spaces.

I've got a stupid idea: Why not figure out what equipment you need to get the job done right, & size the rack to fit that?

I agree. It's the ultimate troll signature. Please tell Jason Newsted or any other millionaire bassist that they shouldn't play the way they do, makes a lot of sense...right...
