And of course, the pedals board comes in a bag. You will also get zip ties and little plastic straps to fasten your pedals. These short cables are very practical because you won’t have cables all over the pedalboard which is the case when you use longer cables. You’ll get three short cables that are used for attaching pedals to one another. There is plenty of space below the pedalboard, so you can place your power supply there.Īnother thing that surprised me is the included accessories. So, this leaves you with the possibility to choose between two kinds of positions which is very pragmatic. However, the cool thing is that you can change this angle and put it in a horizontal shape just by pulling up two little “legs” at its ends. Like the majority of pedalboards, the platform on this one is at a certain angle. One thing is particularly interesting about Vangoa. For example, there are very big pedals, such as Line 6 DL4 Delay Modeler, and small ones, like micro looper so, obviously, the smaller the pedals are, the more you can put on the pedalboard, and vice versa. Now, I should mention one important thing considering the number of pedals that can fit on the pedalboard. Its dimensions are 19.8″ x 11.5″, so you can put around 8 pedals on it. Another great thing about its construction is that it is also very light (3.3lb). Made of aluminum alloy, this pedalboard is very solid. It is a very interesting pedalboard with a great packing list. Vangoa pedalboard is definitely one of my favorites. If you don’t plan to spend additional money on a bag, you should also take this factor into account. All of the pedalboards on our list below come in a bag. When you are traveling to a gig, the bag is that element that protects your pedals from damaging. BagĪlthough the bag is not the element of the pedalboard, it is actually extremely important because it serves as the main protection. However, if you take care of your pedalboard, it doesn’t really matter whether it’s made of plastic or aluminum. Of course, aluminum is more solid and usually heavier. Some of them are made of wood, but they are often too heavy and impractical.īoth aluminum and plastic are fine. The majority of guitar pedalboards are made of aluminum alloy or plastic. MaterialĪnother important factor is the material that the pedalboard is made of. You will probably get an additional pedal or two, so it’s better to get a bigger pedalboard now than to soon spend more money on a new one. However, if you are a beginner, you probably have only a few pedals.Ĭonsidering the fact that you are going to learn new things and will try to improve your sound, I think that getting a little bigger pedal board than you currently need is not such a bad idea. You most likely won’t change it radically in the near future. Having this in mind, I believe that the best advice is that, if you are a professional, you should get the guitar pedalboard on which you can fit your current pedals and effects. They are not really sure what kind of sound they want and thus, they don’t know how many pedals they really need, so they can often make huge changes. On the other hand, beginners tend to experiment a lot. Now, I’m using a pretty broad brush here, and including Strat-a-likes (I have a Warmoth, as well as an ’82 ‘The Strat’), as well as some shredsticks too, which wouldn’t be here if it wasn’t for Leo and his design team.If these guitarists get a new pedal, it is usually similar to the one they already have, so they just switch them. This article is about the top five things I love about a Strat. With all the custom finishes available today, we have to give our thanks where it all began. It is hard to imagine what they must have looked like on the walls of a late 1950s music store. While they were still available in natural and sunburst, he later added those colors we now call ’50s colors’ like Shoreline Gold, Seafoam Green, Shell Pink, and Daphne Blue. He tapped into the Southern California hot rod culture for his color palette and refined his ‘easy to assemble with a versatile sound’ design in the Strat. Leo Fender heard the music of the 1950s changing. I mean, just think: when it came out, natural finishes were all the rage, and other than its cousin the Telecaster, electric guitars contained their acoustic roots in the shapes, colors, and sounds. The Fender Stratocaster is a pretty unique instrument.
