Hey folks, I am planning on building a flat pedalboard for my G-System.
The idea would be to also build a riser at the back to accomodate drive pedals etc and underneath extra power supplies and to hide cables etc.
I really need to get this done as it takes so long to set everything up I often end up just not using it all.
I have a question for you DIY enthusiasts. I will probably use a hardwood marine ply and U channel extruded aluminium on the edges of the main board. What you go for 9mm or 12mm ply, thats about 3/8" to 1/2". Its a strengh versus weight type question. What thickness would you guys go for ?
I suppose although even the G on its own is pretty meaty.
How meaty ?

The cool thing is I was explaining and sketching out the idea to my wife for the board who said well you will have extra space on the riser so you will need more pedals :glasses9:
