Guitar Effects: Attaching Pedals to Pedal Boards

Video Transcript

"Here we're going to discuss attaching the pedals to the pedal board. The pedal board will come with Velcro similar to this or if it doesn't, if you have one with wood on it for example you could buy the Velcro, but you'd have to buy both parts. This, you would cut the size of the back side of the pedal. Peel off the adhesive. Put that onto the underside of the pedal and the fabric that's on here is receptive to the Velcro. It holds a very strong bond. I can't even yank this off. And that will keep them in place. One problem without having a pedal board is that if you had these pedals all strewn across the floor during a gig they would shuffle around. If you kicked them they'd move out of place and often times that could result in a plug coming out, which that happens. You get a huge buzz and then you've got a real problem on your hands. So, this will keep everything really secure and keep problems from like that happening."
