Dont Get Pedal Bored #2. hinge up, lights on

Here is a shot of my pedal board project, the red fiberglass base is on a table top, the rail frame is lifted up on its back hinge. The 2 banks of LED lights are turned on. I can re-wire it on a dark stage if I have to! Notice the spring reverb can mounted in the left corner. It is shock-mounted, but it still picks-up all the foot -switching noise of the board, if you leave it "ON" in the audio chain! 

the papers are check-off lists of all the stuff I need to add to the board. The fun never stops! Hope you have a pedal board too-just put one together with what ever you have on hand. 
You can add a Sore-Throat Guitar amp for only $38.95.

Dont get PEDAL- BORED! keep working on it !

AS WE ALL KNOW

Pedal boards are a lot of fun, but they can also eat up much of your time and energy.
The only way to keep it fresh , is to add new stuff and features when you can.
Here is my main board that I'm working on.


Two wah pedals, a LION and a cry-baby. and a GASS( volume)

The "bones" under the pedals make a strong aluminum frame, and there's a hinge in back.
So the whole thing lifts up for adding/ servicing.
Under the top of the three, there is a 3- spring reverb can, inside a Tolex cloth bag.

My next PEDAL will be a SORE-THROAT-GUITAR AMPLIFIER ! I can hook up the two RCA's
from the reverb can to the STGA amp, and use it a driver. I can go straight to a combo amp, or cable it to my pre-amp mixer at the top left of photo. 

I have a lot more to write about this board, so come back often. 
See the sore-throat amps on ETSY dot com. 
Thanx- the Professor
