RockBoard specialises in pedalboards and accessories, and has been offering a wide range of professional-quality products for many years. Their catalogue features pedalboards in various sizes and price points, ensuring that there is an option for every guitarist and bassist. Among RockBoard's practical solutions is the Handle Set, which address a common and frustrating issue: A fully loaded pedalboard can become heavy, unwieldy, and difficult to carry safely. The RockBoard Handle Set reliably solves this problem by providing two ergonomically shaped handles that attach securely to both ends of the pedalboard. The handles enable the pedalboard to be safely lifted and carried with much less effort.
Built with the same solid construction as all RockBoard pedalboards, the RockBoard Handle Set is crafted from sturdy steel and finished with a durable black powder coating. This design ensures that it can withstand the demands of everyday touring, including repeated knocks and scrapes. Installing the RockBoard Handle Set on a pedalboard is straightforward and hassle-free. Using the provided screws and hex key, the handles can be effortlessly secured to the slots on the pedalboard. The handles feature a low-profile design, standing just slightly higher than most standard effect pedals. As a result, even with the handle set permanently installed, pedalboards will fit comfortably into any case or gig bag.
It's a tale every guitarist or bassist knows all too well: Once one starts dabbling in effect pedals, it can rapidly escalate into an ever-expanding collection. A larger pedalboard becomes a necessity, along with a bigger power supply - or even multiple units. The end result? A bulky, heavy pedalboard that is far from easy to carry. Without a proper handhold on the pedalboard, it is difficult to maintain a firm grip, which significantly increases the likelihood of the pedalboard slipping and potentially causing damage to the equipment. The RockBoard Handle Set offers a simple yet effective solution, making it easy to lift and transport the pedalboard, even over longer distances - and when the board can be transported safely, so can the pedals that are attached to it.
RockBoard is a brand belonging to Warwick Music Distribution GmbH, which is based in Markneukirchen in Germany's Vogtland region. RockBoard's range focuses on pedalboards, which are available in numerous different designs to suit any application and budget, and are complemented by an extensive range of pedalboard accessories, from slick patchbays for expanding the boards and high-quality patch cables for loss-free connection through to high-performance power adapters and the "QuickMount system" for rapid effect changes. In short, RockBoard offers virtually everything that players need to easily set up their own individual pedalboard.
RockBoard offers more than just a wide range of pedalboards; their catalogue also includes a variety of practical accessories and functionality-enhancing extras. For example, the innovative Quick Mount System eliminates the need for hook and loop tape by enabling pedals from top brands like MXR and BOSS to effortlessly "click" into pedalboard slots. RockBoard also caters for players' power supply needs with its proprietary Universal Power Supplies (UPS), which are designed to fit seamlessly into pedalboard slots or mount discreetly underneath. For added visibility and convenience on dark stages, RockBoard offers LED lamps that screw into the side of a pedalboard and draw power directly from the UPS. Additional accessories include pedal risers and step-ups to elevate specific pedals for easier access. To top it off, RockBoard offers custom-designed gig bags and cases, ensuring secure transport and protection for their pedalboards.
