Build Your Own Clone Message Board

Hey there humans of BYOC land! I’m shopping for a new 24” pedalboard. I currently use an 18” pedaltrain classic jr that works great, but I just got a new guitar and would like to add a couple of pedals to the board.

I gig and rehearse a lot, and my priorities are fast set up, a gig bag for transport, and low-ish weight. The pedaltrain is great, but I do wish all of the ins and outs were grouped together in the right side of the board.

Anyone have any recommendations? I haven’t shopped in a while. Any one tried a temple board?

This isn't really an answer to your question about pedalboards, but I built one of these interface boxes and mounted it underneath my pedalboard on the right-hand side so that the inputs and outputs are all together, with the bonus of supporting both two- and four-cable methods without having to change any cable routing on the board:

DIY Pedalboard Junction Box

I reversed the layout from the wiring diagram on that page, so that the guitar input jack is on the right when the box is mounted upside down.

Nice. Are you able to fit it under the board? Or does it take up real estate on top?

It fits completely underneath, but it's a bigger board (I have a problem )

Pics and NGD post or it didn't happen.

Following. I am especially interested in responses about the bag. My Pedaltrain (2 I think? It's an older one, a little bigger than yours) has the bag it came with, and it's garbage. I would like something better that doesn't cost over $200.

Speaking of stuff that costs over $200, have you looked into Mono's boards?

Haha - I've been holding out! And lazy with the pics...


Mono pretty much has me by the nads for most things. I'm selling a few things in order to afford the solid body/semi-hollow dual bag (because NGD). But their pedalboards don't really do it for me. Not really sure what I'm expecting of them.

Anyone try the HOLEYBOARDS adjustable thing? That might work. I don't really like the bag though...

@Morgan I've got a 24" custom trailer trash 59' that's sitting in my basement. Tweed and oxblood like a vintage fender amp.. I've got a padded bag and custom flight case for it as well.. This need a new home (for sale - in other words.).
