Effects shield / cover

[MuddBass]

After a couple of recent gig mishaps with trailing leads changing my compressor settings mid-song, I've made a (prototype) acrylic shield today!

Great idea

Think Boss do a cover less the foot switch portion. Joyo Ironman with the knob flap are cool and dinky...

That looks great! you could probably turn that into a small business!

 

The Hardwire series from Digitech had a rubber cover for the knobs, and the Ibanez 7 series had pop up knobs. All great ideas, but I think this is clever @MuddBass

This is a super cool alternative to the other options out there. Decksaver do a few pedal options, and they are good, but they only cover a few key brands. Rockboard Pedalsafe is another option, but is, IMO, highly over engineered.

 

I really like the simplicity of this design.

My wife says she's not lending me these again though! So I would have to invest in a proper acrilic heater!

… you can buy hand held strip heaters for this very thing. They do look a bit like hair straighteners, but are definitely not (you’d burn your hair if you tried lol)

That sounds like something I could use, as I might make some more of these. Do you have any links to where you get these from? An Amazon search was unhelpful.
