Joined: January 2006 Posts: 5881 Location: Colorado Rocky Mountains | Having no luck finding a means to carry a few acoustic pedals when necessary, I found this nifty aluminum tool case currently on sale from Harbor Freight for a paltry $23. Inside measurements are a shade larger than 17" x 12". Inside depth is just under 6". Using some old 1/4" ply laying around the tool shed, I built a two level pedal board to fit inside and hid the power supply between levels. A piece of foam about half the size of the case (comes with the case) secures the lower level pedals from pulling away from their velcro fastenings during transport. It works perfectly for a small number of pedals for less than $30. ![]() | ||

Joined: January 2006 Posts: 5881 Location: Colorado Rocky Mountains | Power supply is a standard Boss with daisy wheel leads. I have two more unused leads that I can use for two more pedals on top, so I am not concerned about adding to the strip. However, if I did need to plug in another transformer, the power supply cord easily slips out the back. The power strip has a short lead and plugs into another higher grade power strip with surge protection that I also use for the amp. This is not a high tech unit, but it works for what it is. Incidently, it also fits neatly under the Trace which I place in a tilt back stand. | ||
