pedal boards

Hey Beammeup, what's that loop/AB-box you got there? Homemade? Danish?

Also...the board, homemade?

Hi,

The Loop box is a Loop Master. They are build by order, in the US.

[Invalid or Expired Link Removed]

The Board is build by a Danish company called Sound Care.
They are unfortunately closed for good now, but I know they have a few boards like mine left.

I can highly recommend both of the above.
 
No most pedalboards do not come with power supplies, but if they do they for some reason can not power all the pedals that fit on the board (do I stay away from them... SKB/FURMAN/Pedal PAd) I prefer to the option to use whatever power supply I want...

Now I payed 134 usd for my last NYC Pedalboad, and it is worth it... He uses all top quality wood/matereals... And he uses Velcro brand loop fastner insted of carpet (first off velcro is a name brand, stop name brand association - if it aint' Velcro its "hook and Loop" fastner) I have never had a pedal come off... Ever... I would say NYC's are worth every damn penny... And I have owned a lot of pedalboards...

Alex

ps. Seriously Matt, you can power more pedals than you own easly with the power all!..

I'm trying to decide if these things are really worth $120 :eyebrow:

BUT, what if I were to get a piece of nice wood for free off of someone, cut it to the right shape, and buy velcro.

That's pretty much what pedal boards are, right?
