should i pick up this board?

Post by space6oy »

i currently have a three tiered board that was built by its previous owner, good intention but makes it kind of awkward... found this on craigslist, dude's asking $80, think i'll dig it? or should i hold off for a pedaltrain instead? (open to other recommendations too...)

80$ is a good price.
Me personally I prefer those type of board to the Pedaltrain type.

this looks like my lyt pedalboard case.
seems like a good price, although not having a second tier would probably bother me

If it comes with that pedal, you should get it.

thanks! bet he's hanging onto that one... he's just unloading the board and some other gear since he's moving out of state and is driving himself instead of hiring movers. i'll ask about it though... :cool:

Nice. Too bad about the Maxon. It's kinda understandable though, him not wanting to part with it.

He probably left the pedal on there just for scale. Personally I like Pedaltrain, because you can keep the cables tidy. This does seem like a good deal though.

$80 is more than reasonable for that case. its only drawback to me is that i'm used to the ability to hang cords and jacks off the edges of a Pedaltrain...however, it looks big enough for a Wurlitzer electric piano so i guess i'd have enough room :lol:
