I'm in the market for a custom pedalboard. So far I've found 2 companies that are close to what I want.
Trailer Trash Pedalboards www.trailertrashpedalboards.com
They're pretty cool looking, and seem very functional, but they're a bit pricey.
Black Bird Pedalboards www.blackbirdpedalboards.com
They have more custom options available, and the Wah Wedge is a cool feature... but I don't like the fact that you can see the seem in the tolex across the middle of the board. I know this is being very picky.
Can anybody else provide links to any other good companies? |

I've been touring hard with one of these: http://www.showcasecases.com/OurProd...PedalBoard.htm
I can vouch for the construction & durability! |

Simple design though. Have you thought of just building one yourself?

| | Registered User | | Join Date: Jun 2009 Location: Bergen County, New Jersey | | I was originally going to get one, but I don't like the carpeted case. I know I'm picky, but if I'm spending money on something I want it to look cool too. Quote:

| | Registered User Endorsing Artist: J.C. Basses | | Join Date: Aug 2005 Location: Phoenix, Arizona 85029 | | I second the DIY idea.
In the bottom, you can see mine. Two tier to allow just the stomp portion of the pedal to stick out and keep floor space minimal. There's even a hole through the top and bottom so that you can stick a mic stand in it (so useful for clubs).
I can't wait to free up some time to re-build it and make it look a bit better with the added hinges to attach a lid for easy transport.
