So i am going to make a replica pedalboard...nothing much else to do this summer this is the cardboard and paper version of the enclosed part

you gotta have a lot of electronic experience.

he wired out every pedal to an outside rubber true bypassed switcher.

i know that its a true bypass strip right?

eah...

just buy one and slip it in there...

honestly u dont need a crazy board like that unless ur hardcore giing.

I know i dont need it but i want to make it because i just like it soo much
i dont want to buy one for about 200 dollars so i think ill just make one for about $60
its not actually that hard to make
Soon i will be ordering the metal frame for the enclosed part!

ok so it will be wood under thin metal sheets on top to save money. instead of buying thick metal i am cutting the wood right now and will post picks by the end of today

Hey Axe!

Any update on how you got on with your project?

im working on the third one right now the first is the cardboard the second was the wood one which came out completely different than the original measurements. the third one will be made with better thinner wood and will have sheet metal on the top and slanted front igtg im at school

Here is my version of the chip pan, note that it doesnt look at all like Randy's, but it has the same pedals, even a wah on the left and volume on the right like Randy had. Luckily the MXR Flanger is vintage, left to me by my stepfather who is recently deceased, along with the 1978 Marshall JMP you see pictured.

you got some nice stuff dude

Thanks, man. I appreciate that. That Marshall survived a house fire, shows how indestructable they are. I have been buying guitars and pedals since about 1998 and this is my current rig and I am sticking with it. What I dont have pictured is my Gibson Les Paul Studio (which I may trade up for a Les Paul Custom, so much easier to play) my Jackson JR-20 (which I barely play and dont really like) and soon to be arriving, my polka dot flying V which I ordered off of ebay. I will have to post up some pictures of my V when I get it, I am excited as hell to get it.

UPDATE:
I had made the wood for the third make back in October then I left my pedalboard with a friend of a friend to cut sheet metal for it. He said he would get it done by the end of 2010. He never got to it and i had to argue and reason with him to get it back. I have just decided to buy some more sheet metal (he kept my old sheets) and use that on the wood that i have gotten back from him. I will get a Lowe's to cut it for me. I still have to buy the electronics to fit it. (Parts to make the true bypass strip, Chorus and Flanger) I have recently gotten the re-release of Randy's Roland Space Echo. Its a really neat pedal! I will post images of the wood version if you guys want me to. The only parts that will metal is the top piece and the slanted piece top piece.

Lets see it man!

alright ill post some pics tomorrow
also im gonna get the sheet metal and wire everything sometime this week and should wrap it up pretty darn soon.

You're going to remove the guts from the original pedals for this project? I'd like to see the "work in progress" pics.
