Thought I'd post this for the info of TGP members.
If you want a small, cheap, light and efficient pedal board this new Gator Bone board is good.
Costs only $60 & provides up to 1700 ma power for 5 x 9v pedals.
It's made of heavy duty plastic so its light, the powering is silent and it fits 4 or 5 pedals plus a wah. Or it'll fit 6 Boss sized pedals plus a Wah if you squeeze em up. Comes with a good little carry bag too.
I've set this one up as a 2nd pedal board & loaded her up with backup babies that were sitting in a box. Great if you only have a few pedals :D

Wow that looks ideal for a mini board set up.

Really like this concept. It would be nice if the right side of the bone were a bit thicker so one could move the Wah left to make room for a pedal (fuzz for me) before wah. Even still, been using a powered Gator Pedal Tote for about 3 years now with no issues ... solid products!

Well actually you can do that if your fuzz pedal is no wider than the OCD pedal in my picture.
I could move my Crybaby to the left and fit in another pedal to its right.
A Turbo Tuner would fit there no prob's :D

It looks cool, but I also think that it wouldn't take much effort for anyone to build something more "custom" to meet their needs. Neat idea tho...

Wow, that thing looks interesting :)
Can the right side accomodate 2 rows of pedals if one doesn't use wah or volue pedal?
And only 39EUR, cheap enought to leave it at reahearsal space:

Why not make the left side all pedal-friendly, like the right? Seems like a waste to have the smooth plastic and the logo where pedals could go.

I flipped mine around and put a DD20 and tap tempo pedal on the wah pad. It's a nice little board. I'm going to glue in some extra padding into the top of the bag for a little more protection.

Thanks for the heads-up. I bought one for my son for Christmas.
It's on sale this week at Best Buy: $59
Very cool.

+1 actually it would nice if the left side would be exactly the same as right one :aok

yeah I agree - would be better if they had lengthenned the left side like the right. You could fit a volume pedal there or 2 rows of smaller pedals there if they did.
Not perfect for sure but still good for $60 :D
