Let's see your small/mini/nano pedalboards

It dawned on me this month that I’ve played far more gigs with the ‘B’ board than my main rig. Also I didn’t like running the front end on batteries. So I’ve added a Cioks Sol underneath and a second Line 6 HX One. These babies are incredibly powerful. I also added a plastic guard to the power selector after accidentally kicking it down to 1 watt. 

All in all it’s an amazing little rig. This runs to either my own Marshall 1922 or whatever cabs the venue has. But it’s plenty loud in 20 watt mode. 

Pushing the definition of small there

Not when you factor in that the amp is built in.

You've got a board so big it fits a whole amp on it?!

Really digging this right now. Just need to find a way to power a compressor. The Ojai R30 is holding up well so far with 4 tubes on the board!

Oof I bet that’s a sound..

This is definitely small with a footprint that's less than an A4 piece of paper. 



I've built this as my open mic/jam night board. Turn up with this in a backpack with a couple of cables and a guitar, ready to go into any old backline amp. Full charge should give me about 75hrs apparently.

Neat little power supply there.

Here's my open mic Nano board, including Superblock amp. Didn't quite get my levels right in the Zoom MS70, the auto-wah caused a big spike in levels on the DI out, although not on the speaker cab somehow. More testing required!

I have come to terms with the fact that I hate pedalboards. Cables, power supplies, cases, boards, all that shit. Don't like it. Never have.

So I have massively stripped back to the pedals I actually use, rather than the ones the internet tells me I need to have. Much better.

OMG! This one has become sentient. Intervention required!!!

Has anyone ever put a Boss "double" pedal (like a DD-20) on to a Pedaltrain Nano+ ?

It looks like the DD-20 is slightly taller/wider/higher than the pedaltrain is, and I want to know whether having it protruding makes the board unstable. I had a look back through the thread but couldn't spot one.

I think for it to be unstable either the footswitch would need to be out over the edge or it’d generally need to be overhanging by a LOT - if you don’t need to worry about fitting it in its case I think you’d be fine

Since I changed my head from the MT15, to the Pink Taco, my “board” is even smaller…

I’ve never had one of those boss sized ones but I’ve used others that overhand and never had any issues

I'd be tempted to have it over hang the other way, so line the footswitches up with the edge of the board. But if it feels stable, then it is stable.

I only posted my board a few weeks ago, selling my princeton and buying a 70s vibro champ has required some reverb, and the new arrival does that very nicely:

Revolutions

NPD x2 

picked up the whammy off a lovely gent here - a fun experiment k now I can pretend to be Tom Morello. Intend fo spend a bit of time getting to know ir & see how I could use more often.

Next up is the Collision Devices Singularity fuzz. I sort of regretted selling my CD Blsck Hole Symmetry so when I saw the they had a sale a few weeks back I picked up tte fuzz cheat. Simple, looks awesome sounds

The board I use in my main melodic punk band. Most of the gain comes from the amp, which is a Laney GH50L head driven fairly hard, and the Dyna Comp is set as a boost for soloing. The Skinner Box is for when it's time to really get nasty, and the delay is for certain less busy moments to add a bit of width and texture. I'm very happy with it.

Very businesslike, I like it!
