Show your tidy pedalboard!

Did you say tidy or tiny?

How about nonexistent?;)

I'm going to mount these on a piece of wood. Kind of bummed the ab switch doesn't have external power, because I never remember to unplug everything.

I put my dirt straight through the preamp, and my modulation through the effects loop. I'll post my currently "untidy version to illustrate. Top row straight in, bottom row = loop.

Okay, great pedal boards. Since I’ll be putting together my first, what are your opinions about going through the effects loop as opposed to into the front of the amp? I’ve only ever used the occasional chorus or octaves, and always through the front of the amp. What are the pros and cons of effects loops for a pedal board loaded with effects?
