Members gschmittling Posted July 7, 2009 Members Share Posted July 7, 2009 Well, I'm guessing it's all in the cables but where do you put the cables underneath? Pics of underneath your board? I'm looking at buying some new cables to do my board, what do I get to get a tidy board? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Crxsh Posted July 8, 2009 Members Share Posted July 8, 2009 Top: Bottom: Get those sticky mounts, mini cable ties & black cable wraps @ Home Depot. Will cost you about $5 or so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members surfcat Posted July 8, 2009 Members Share Posted July 8, 2009 Very neatly done-makes me wish I'd gone with a Pedaltrain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members turnitto11 Posted July 8, 2009 Members Share Posted July 8, 2009 Pedaltrain FTW again. Mines kinda orgainized like crxsh's, only I used a lots of mounts without cable wraps. Works pretty well, cuz you can't see any of the power cables from up top. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members valvestate Posted July 8, 2009 Members Share Posted July 8, 2009 You can put more pedals there crshx.... For me it still looks bear... but still cool nonetheless Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Crxsh Posted July 8, 2009 Members Share Posted July 8, 2009 Not without another power supply. (And as it sits right now, the Timmy, PS-3 & Prometheus are out.... and a Tim is in. Bare Essentials'd.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members royal crxsh johnson Posted July 8, 2009 Members Share Posted July 8, 2009 where'd you get the cable wraps. did those holders come stock on the pedaltrain? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members b_nehpets Posted July 8, 2009 Members Share Posted July 8, 2009 mines like crxsh's with ties and such, but i change stuff in and out enough that it's gotten messy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members gschmittling Posted July 8, 2009 Author Members Share Posted July 8, 2009 Awesome. Thanks for the help guys. I'll post pics of my tidy board when I get it I can't stand the cables I have now, looking at buying new ones to customize their size. What kind of cables are those? I was looking at the George L's, but the kit doesn't seem worth it, it comes with like 6? I have probably about 8-9 pedals to connect... any other options What do you guys do with the customized cables when you switch pedals out?

Members fenderthrupeave Posted July 8, 2009 Members Share Posted July 8, 2009 remake them to the length you now need. its not to hard once you get good at it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Parah Salin Posted July 8, 2009 Members Share Posted July 8, 2009 Short cable runs help keep your board tidy. Also, it's almost impossible to have a messy Pedaltrain Mini and I don't even route my cables underneath. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members turtleheadblues Posted July 8, 2009 Members Share Posted July 8, 2009 Lava Mini ELC. Smallest plug out there. I dont sell these direct just work there. Probably the easiest way to clean up a board and maximize space. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Blakemore Effects Posted July 8, 2009 Members Share Posted July 8, 2009 I always struggle with this same problem, but I think without a Pedaltrain style board it is a LOT harder to make your board look neat. I mean, no matter how straight all my pedals are lined up, having all the cables in sight makes it look messy. You almost need a Pedaltrain or another way of getting your cables out of sight, unless I'm missing something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
