You have £500 or $500 to spend on a pedalboard. What do you choose?

Life too short for long YouTube videos? Please see the ‘Interesting bits and go-to sections’ information below.

Welcome to the show! Way back in the mists of time (June 2017 in fact) we did a £350 pedalboard challenge show. We got loads of requests asking us to up the budget a bit, so a mere four years later, here it is. Ahem…
Truth be told, Dan and I prefer living with our heads entirely in the sand / up our own backsides and we gave up worrying about gear budget many moons ago, along with hopes of wealth, a safe and secure life or any sort of quality retirement.
Meanwhile, back in the real world, most people are a little more considered, and do put life before gear and therefore have to think about budget. Yawn. With that in mind, just what kind of serious board can you put together for £500? A pretty gosh-darned good one as it goes…

Please enjoy the episode!
