Slick DIY Pedalboard Mod

Perforated metal pedalboard makes a rock solid mounting system

I thought I had a kick-ass original idea, but turns out it’s already being done commercially, and they”re getting a lot of money for these. Perforated metal  pedalboards. The catch is the prices are upwards of $200, so I went ahead and modded my Pedaltrain and I thought I’d share the idea. If you like the look and you’re tired of velcro, then you can save the $200+ cost of a new board by doing this mod. Including the metal I only have $30 in the mod (plus what I paid for the Pedaltrain which I think was $39 on sale at G.C.). I can’t stand velcro. It ain’t foolproof and it collects every bit of dirt and hair that it can grab onto. Another side benefit is the extra weight this adds to the board keeps it from moving around on you. And it just looks so freakin’ cool!
