Guitar pedalboard

Flat board or panel for the electric guitar

Note

panels that house compact effectors

A guitar pedalboard is a platform or container used to manage a collection of effects pedals for the electric guitar and bass. Depending on the model, pedalboards often have integrated power supplies with connection cables, use multiple tiers, and can act as patch bays to simplify switching between multiple pedals. Pedalboards can be store-bought or made by a player. Most have flat or angled surfaces where pedals and external power supplies attach using hook-and-loop fasteners or other techniques, and often have a removable lid when part of an integrated case to enable easier transportation.

A custom-made wooden pedalboard shows the "audience" view of a pedalboard, with the pedals arrayed towards the bassist.
