The Shocking Truth About Effects Pedal Boards

Would you buy a guitar without researching it? Would you buy an amp without researching it? Probably not, and why not? Because you want to make sure that your making the right choice, one that you will be satisfied with, right? So why would you not spend the time researching the best effects pedal boards for yourself?
The shocking truth about effects pedal boards is that people have little knowledge about the importance of them and what you need to be aware of when buying them. You would not believe the amount of people who invest in a pedal board case only to realize that it is no good for them because it is too small, too big, too heavy, takes up to much room etc.The shocking truth is that If you do not know exactly what you are looking for, then you will get roped into buying an effects case that you don't need, or spending twice as much money as you should have
Unbelievably, the reason why musicians make this mistake is actually very simple, and because it is simple it can be easily avoided. Before you even start looking to buy an effects pedal board you need to look at you current set up of pedals and decide what you need from there. For instance if you have a large amount in your set up then you would want a good size to fit them all, but you also need to think about weight and transporting the pedals. If you're going to be carrying them around in a flight case a lot think how heavy that will be.
You can easily avoid these common problems that people come across and save yourself loads of hassle and money by considering the following points when looking to buy effects pedal boards.
  • Ask yourself what are the reasons why you need a case?
  • Do you simply want one so that you can transport and protect your effects pedals?
  • Do you want a board that comes with a built-in power supply?
  • One of the most important factors you should think about is if you need a hard case or a soft case?
  • What size do you need?
  • How many pedals do you have?
Answering these questions will give you a much clearer idea of what you are looking for and help you avoid buying the wrong effects pedal board.
The best advice I could give you is to take the time to research effects pedal boards and decide on exactly what you need. Don't rush into buying one. If you do this then I guarantee you will be satisfied with your decision!
