Show me your compact pedalboard setup

#3,301
Boards two and three. Pretty happy with this setup, three small boards with distinct flavors. Easy to use and power. Two is on the bottom

While I've read though most of the 160+ pages in this thread, I can't be arsed to find if there are any posts on what I'm after, so apologies for asking something that might have been covered.

So I've got two pedals that require ac outlets. Mine is a tiered pedal board, and there is a tiny amount of space in the underside. Its' an Accel, which I'm guessing most are not familiar with: [Invalid or Expired Link Removed]

The cord for the board power is only about 4 feet long - it powers the power block, which has 2 adjustable outputs (9V-18V & 5V-9V) and 4 selectable outputs (9V or 12V), but my TC Chorus is AC powered, and the Eden Glowplug needs a 15v wallwart.

So I probably need two or three things:
- A long extension cord
- A (proper) surge protector (or maybe just one with a long cord)
- A mini 2-outlet thingy for under the board for the Eden and TC pedals
(I was thinking this could also be a mini-surge protector)

Am trying to keep the amount of gear and connections and space to a minimum. I'd appreciate seeing anyone's pedal boards that have addressed this kind of requirement, thanks in advance, especially under-board outlet solutions.

I had the same power supply, and I plugged the GP into the ac outlet on the Accel. You can use any IEC cord to plug in the Accel. You get replacements at Best Buy, and places like that.

Thanks and I know what you mean, but I still need something for the TC (which I currently plug into that onboard outlet).

I think I may just get a 2-outlet mini extension cord and mount it inside and plug that into the outlet, and, buy one of those 15' Furman 6 outlet surge protector / power conditioners to plug the board and my amp into.

But am still keen to see other solutions.

I've always loved the Dano pedals but was a guitarist when I last used any of their dirts - how is that Paisley on bass, @ShortyGetLow ?

I don't know yet, I plugged in the board to see if it lit up, and it did!

I'll get it tested in the next few weeks, I promise....

Every pedal on my board was thoroughly tested to work well with the bass, all the crappy ones go on my guitar board I don't use.

I have a Wampler paisley drive, that I used on guitar for a short while... tried it on bass just for fun. It's actually quite nice. It's tweakable enough to get several good sounds... but I no longer play guitar, and don't use OD on bass, so I'm selling it

Is the Wampler Paisley anything like the Danelectro Blue Paisley (mentioned) and Black Paisley though?

I have no experience with the Dan Electro, sorry... honestly, I had never heard of it until seeing the photo above... I figured it may be a Dan Electro version of the Wampler since it looks to have similar features

Ohhh - no the Danos were released some 20 years ago and were named for the paisley graphics pattern, while the Wampler is apparently named for Brad Paisley, and I have no idea if he or Wampler were around 20 years ago =0)
