Pedal help!

[Shushamouth]

Been on the road for 2 weeks and I've been using my rackmount which has the line 6 pod, bbe maximizer and I'm using my ampeg as power amp. I haven't had time to really look at more pedals because of the other stressors that come along with preparing for tour. There also aren't any places around my area that carry darkglass unfortunately.
My rackmount has been a complete pain in the ass especially to lift on top of an SVT810e cab. Im 5'3" lol. However, my sound is nice. We play heavier stuff than those links that were posted.

I changed my strings, of course, and that always does make a difference. I use D'Addario for my drop b. I also just got some Dean Markley but I have not tried those out yet.

Just an update!

Does stage space dictate your rack has to be on your cab? If not, consider leaving it on the floor, with something to tilt it so you can see the controls easier.

I was going go purchase a small dolly to roll next to the cab. Sometimes stage space unfortunately does dictate that from happening though.

Bring a little step stool?

There's some advice on stools as cab-stands here, but you could stick the rack on them (obviously not your cab ). On the DB side, one of the people was recommending a folding one that looked cool, damned if I can find the link though. I found one I like, as it folds fairly flat and wouldn't take up much space in the tour-vehicle.

These look robust enough, depending on the size of the rack the one above may not be big enough. How much does the rack weigh?

Found it! Wasn't from the DB side, it was Ukiah Bass's stool from the above linked thread.
Link Removed Ukiah's setting his cab on it though, not a rack. Link Removed I guess the stool is not much different than the first one I posted above, maybe the very same.


OKay, not as robust as I thought — recalled! AND these ones, too. Makes me wonder, living in the litigious times we do, if the stools collapsed because of user error...

Okay, so this won't help you put your rack on top of your cab, but it'll hold your rack more safely than collapsing-foldable stools!
