Homemade Pedalboard CASES

Sign in to disble this ad
I'd love so see some homemade pedalboards for inspiration, entertainment, awe...etc. I picked up this sweet thing a bit ago at a second hand store for a whooping $2.50 or so. It fit my board pretty much perfectly! Still need to pad the inside, and possibly paint it something retro, i don't really like the brown.

lol hey whatever works! its more than i have right now! i have NO pedal board only pedals galore!!!

im thinking about doing a home depot pedal board ( d.i.y. ) job. wood, spray paint, nails, glue, lol u get the idea. its good to know i can always throw it in luggage like yours from the pawn / thrift store!!!! lol

maybe you can rig it so the top of the luggage is removable and you can gig " pedals in luggage " onstage! lol

No American Tourister Luggage? You must not have had that many K-Marts back in the day. Those are literally a dime a dozen in most thrift stores in the states.

EDIT: and Canada Apparently.

I turned one into an Amp/Cable Case for my GK MB2-500.

That makes sense seeing as how many K-marts here are shutting down.

TWEED BABY TWEED

gonna steal this spot so I can post up the one I made a couple weeks ago.

Picked up a sweet TWEED briefcase at Salvation Army for $3. Replaced the hinges and added and angled board. Perfect for my minimal setup.

Although not a pedalboard case,...here is what I did with my thrift store luggage find.





One of my bandmates scored 300 bucks out of the lining of a thrift store suitcase. Lucky Bastage.
