I got the industrial strength Velcro from Sweetwater, they sell it by the roll about 7 foot long. It cost about $20 a roll but it's really good quality stuff. I'm glad I bought it.

Here's a guy who has a much bigger and more expensive pedalboard than mine....

I put the industrial strength velco on my pedal board 7 8 years ago or so. Ripped the back off one of my pedals trying to take it off so be careful when doing so. It also ripped the sticker off the back of my TS-9.

There's been a change of plans....I'm going to put all the Marshall pedals together on a separate board for my Supro amp. All the BOSS pedals are going back on the curved board....I'm in the process of re-wiring everything now.
The Marshall pedals will be a great retro addition to the Supro amp. I'll have six Marshall pedals total. I've got 4 now and two on the way, so I'll have a nice set of matching pedals for the Supro. I bought the new smaller board today at Lowe's and stained it already.... The Supro is coming today. So I'm excited.

Now I tend to agree with Mr. DeRosa in part and (for me at least, just getting back into electric ) learning how just my hands and playing style can play into tone shaping and variation , and also what is available from my Supro sans FX, first. For me and to my way of thinking is paramount to really understanding tone, then as can often be the case, once the basics are learned and at some level of skill, then one has all the better foundation with which to explore this amazing world of FX Which is why for example I decided to organize my practice regime to consist of the first 15 -20 minutes, of just straight into the amp no FX. Then exploring bringing in FX one at a time and then in multiples . Looking forward to some pictures of new Supro/Marshall board when ya get er done

The reason for the change of plans is from what I'm reading about the Supro, to get a nice crunchy distorted sound, it must be cranked up loud. The only alternative is to add distortion pedals in the chain to be able to get distortion at low volume levels. This is important to me because I don't want to disturb my neighbors with loud levels all day long...the dual tone doesn't have a reverb, so the Marshall reverb should fill that need. Other Marshall pedals I will be using include a delay, a compressor, the Vibratone, and two distortion pedals. This will give me a wide range of options to work with on the Supro.
Finding the deal on the Supro changed all my plans. I really wasn't planning on buying another amp, but this deal made sense to me, and will work out perfectly for me. The other rig will still work great for stereo recordings.

As you can see, I have the board set up on an end table which is waiting for the amp, and the two other pedals, the delay and compressor, should both be here in the next few days....It's a much simpler setup and should sound great. I already bought the Velcro for it, but am waiting to install it when the other two pedals get here.

yep they have !!! They multiply like rabbits.
I'm thinking I need a pre-amp also to go along with the Marshall pedals, either the Echoplex pre amp or the Timmy would work well. Maybe the Timmy would be better because it has tone controls on it.

Ya Pete's pretty incredible on his rigs. My problem is that I'm limited to my budget and can only afford so much. He's got all high buck effects and lots of them. My pedal board is much more modest and simple in comparison.
I suppose it's a hobby or an obsession I don't know. I've seen synth guys do the same and have walls and walls of synths all laid out and operational....some recording studio owners are also into high buck gear...2-4 million for a studio is not unheard of.

I'm loving this little board I put together to handle both my acoustic & electric rigs. I can go to an amplifier for my electric, or direct to the board for either my acoustic or electric signal. Loving it!

Just did a major update on my pedalboard as well -- I took every one of my pedals (except tuner and volume pedal) to GC and traded them in on a Line 6 Helix! What an incredible piece of equipment!
