Why can't they have their power-in at the top, you know, to make my goddam life easier?!?!?!?!



EDIT: By way of explanation, my pedal board is a Holey Board. It's basically a wooden board about as thick as an old-school Black Knight skateboard with a bunch of holes drilled in it. Instead of Velcro, you use zip ties. And that means you don't have to modify your pedals by removing the feet and/or the rubber backing. Just strap 'em down and yer good. But it also means ya gotta strategize, lay 'em out correct so everything reaches. And I forgot the 9V power input on an MXR is right under the line-in (basically in the armpit instead of going right into the top of the head, so to speak.) Not the end of the world, but the MXR I just bought is a delay pedal, second-to-last in the chain, I was almost done before I realized wasn't going to work the way I had it laid out.

And so I got mad...lol.

1. They only one you really need is the dyna comp

The 45 degree angle won’t take up that much space in your pedal board

4. I play the banjo,

the only pedals I have to deal with are on my bicycle. I don't have to deal with none of that alekatrikle stuff.
