Power strip

Sign in to disble this ad
Here's something I don't know that I've seen on here before... Anybody know of a really good, practical power strip? I've seen a lot on power conditioners vs. surge protectors, but what's a solid, practical power strip for a musician? I guess the biggest thing I'm thinking about is one where the outlets aren't spaced too close together (or aligned so they're all "upright" up and down the length of the strip), to allow for pedals that use AC or DC adapters. Size and shape to allow it to be easily mounted/velcroed to a pedalboard would also be nice. Anyway, this is 100% completely just personal preference/experience, but I thought I'd see what people had to say...

Squid style gets the job done, too.

Short extensions will work with a standard power strip.

Nice long cable too. I think for $30 it's great.
