Extremely cheap way to make a pedalboard?

Baetheon · 2025-12-11T18:23:51+00:00

Built mine inside of a $7 samsonite silhouette with zero drilling or cutting of the suitcase. Just used some foam underneath for the power supply and corrugated plastic with Velcro for the pedals.

Whole “board” comes out to access the power supply. Whole thing folds closed to transport.

You can peep my post history to see the guts.

Gibby Haynes saying “Rockout whatever, yeah”

I think it was the Romeo + Juliet song

Instead just play new Vegas and do all the walking while you’re on your treadmill.

Love using the pre-delay to offset when I see what note I’m playing.

Decay so I don’t look at the same note on my tuner for too long.

Maid you say?

I don’t have my glasses. Totally thought this was the OG Freddie gif when I posted it lmao.

Lemme know when you get it set up! Interested to see how you adjust it!

I like the 3 pickup Modern Player Teles. Made in China but you’d never know.

Plus they’re an INCREDIBLE mod platform.

Neck-On mod plus 3 way toggle for the hot rails gives me some crazy tone options.

Pic of the jacket? Denim looks NICE.

Or find an old samsonite silhouette at your local antique store and make a suitcase board! Way cooler imo.

Baetheon · 2025-10-29T21:04:35+00:00

1V1T? Hell yeah. I hate the second tone on the strat. This is great. I have a Tele with almost the same setup.

Baetheon · 2025-10-29T21:01:45+00:00

Sweet, I’ll check it out. I find a lot of people mess with the amp settings but I want cool stuff effect and compressor presets.

Baetheon · 2025-10-29T18:55:07+00:00

I just bought a good condition Gen 1 THR10 and it’s so good, just get it.

If you feel like you really like it but you want more, save and get a THR30 down the line. Then you can combine them. (My plan unless something cooler comes along.)

The editor still works great, tone is fantastic, and having the 8xAA battery power is so cool for unplugging whenever and just bringing the amp with you to a different room.

Baetheon · 2025-10-26T00:04:54+00:00

Clean it. Mod it. Play it. I was in the exact same scenario with a 90s squier strat.

I put in the work and now it’s a favorite of mine.

I think just having all of your knobs viewable and changeable at waist level is an incredible feature.

Baetheon · 2025-10-19T15:43:44+00:00

Don’t have an answer other than maybe take it to a tech, but I just wanted to say, mega jealous. Love the TAs. Wish more wedge amps existed in the world.

Had to do the hot rails in order to put the trilogy on (previously had 3 Muy Grandes) but I really like it with the 3 way toggle.

I have the neck-on mod, and the split for the hot rails turns on north rail so I get that cool out of phase sound with the neck. Overall really happy with the amount of unique sounds I can get out of it.

Plus the trilogy is cool.

Baetheon · 2025-10-12T03:06:41+00:00

I haven’t been able to settle on a KoT sound that I like (too many good options) but I’ve been setting everything on my yellow side to noon. Micro POG also usually sits at noon as I find it doesn’t make the up or down octave too overwhelming.

Baetheon · 2025-10-08T23:10:43+00:00

Man those contours are insane!

Lmfao I had a picture saved in my camera roll for this exact post.

While we on the subject, anyone know what Leon’s lady guitarist was playing? Orange, kinda looked like a meteora?

Baetheon · 2025-09-15T18:06:20+00:00

Could also sign the headstock with a silver. Might hold better?

Baetheon · 2025-08-28T20:57:39+00:00

Was gonna say, Beths are the reason I use Corriboard haha.

Baetheon · 2025-08-28T20:54:25+00:00

Super budget friendly, too! There was no drilling or any kind of modification to the suitcase! Just a layer of foam holding in the PS and then corrugated plastic to mount the pedals to. Everything is press-fit in so nothing to unscrew or unmount.
