  • Pedalboard Question?

    OK, this is a pretty basic question but here goes: I scored a couple of pedals for Christmas and want to put together a small pedalboard. One of the pedals is used and the previous owner scraped off the foam padding from the bottom, presumably to put velcro on. Here's my question; which side of the velcro goes on the pedal, and which side is traditionally on those prefab pedalboards. I don't have the board yet, I am leaning towards that black and yellow 'boomerang' shaped one that I have seen advertised in Guitar World. In the meantime, I dont want my pedals skidding all over the floor, so I would like to attach some the proper side of the velcro to them. Thanks for your replies.

    On all the boards I've had and on the two I currently own, the pedal board itself has the soft, "fuzzy" material and the pedals get the harder, plastic "hook" side of the velcro... Hope this helps [img]images/icons/smile.gif[/img]

      Yup, that's the way mine is set up.

        I did mine the opposite way; padding on the pedals and hooks on the board. It shouldn't matter, but I just figured that having the hooks on the board would collect less dust than the padding would.

          The hooks on the pedal is the norm and works good on lots of carpet too!!

            When I was using a pedal board, I had them bolted onto the board...............

              I'm with power tube. I used the hooks on the board, they collect too much crap if they're on the pedal and you happen to use the pedal off the board...

              Then I bought a TIG welder... No more worries...

                Thanks for all of your replies, guys. I ended up putting the hook side on the pedals, since I am purchasing a prefab pedalboard.
