Help! Not enough room on my small pedal board.
I'm setting up my board, and if I put my Wah on the board, there's no room for expansion for one more pedal.
Since the Wah is so big and heavy, what if I just place it on the floor next to the board? I don't think it will slide around, it's got rubber feet on the bottom. I don't gig anymore, the board will just stay in the house, so that's not an issue. What do you think? I know this sounds pretty naive, but it's my first board although I've been playing for (insert large number here) years.

I have lots of pedals. I just put them on the floor and plug them in.
Get crazy. Have fun.

Hey Jerry, no reason not to put the wah on the floor. Do you move your pedal board moving much (i.e. out to practice)?
I took my wah off my board years ago because it was too big and I rarely used it. If I were to use it now I'd just hook it up first in line on the floor. |

I've seen a lot of people putting the wah on the side separately. It is lower and more stable there anyway.

since you don't gig, there is no rule that says every pedal has to be on a board. what did people do prior to boards? they put them on the floor. just put the pedals in a manner that the ones you use the most are the easiest to get to.
play music!
