Pedalboard Planner

Link: Pedalboard Planner

Just when you thought you wasted enough time on guitar forums, Facebook, Twitter, Youtube etc here comes something guaranteed to suck hours away from your life. The Pedalboard Planner, supported by Pedaltrain, is a new pedalboard mock up tool that allows you to design the pedalboard of your dreams. Just choose a Pedaltrain size and then select the pedals you’d like on your virtual pedalboard. Lots of pedal brands are available and hopefully they’ll keep adding to the list. When you’re done (are guitarists ever done?) you can save an image file of the full pedalboard. Oh my gosh this is addictive.
