How we ranked these pedalboards

Every pick has at least 100 customer ratings on Amazon and a listing with real specifications. The order mixes two things: how each model compares on the specs below (higher share of the best value in this group scores more), and how widely it is bought. The spec score runs from 9.0 to 9.8 and only compares these picks with each other. A spec the listing does not state is left out and the other specs are re-weighted; a listing with fewer than 2 stated specs is scored at half. We do not test gear in person. Full method.

Buying advice: pro pedalboards

Measure pedals against board size first

Board size decides how many pedals fit in a row: the Pedaltrain Classic 2 measures 24 x 12.5 inches, the STRICH STANDARD 25 measures 25 x 12.7 x 2.83 inches, and the Pedaltrain Classic Pro measures 32 x 16 inches. Lay out your pedals in the same order you play them, then compare that layout with the board dimensions and the soft case or carry bag that comes with each board. Leave room at the edges for cables and for the hook-and-loop accessories that hold pedals in place.

Count isolated outputs for power supplies

Isolated outputs keep each pedal on its own power feed: the Truetone CS12 has 12 isolated outputs, and the Truetone CS6 has 6 isolated outputs. Voltage matters too, since the CS12 offers 9V, 12V, and 18V variable voltage and the CS6 offers switchable 9V/18V, 9V/12V, and 9V outputs. Count your pedals, check each pedal voltage, and pick the output count and voltage range that covers your board.

Check cases brackets and mounting hardware

A case keeps a board safe between gigs, and mounting hardware keeps a power supply fixed to a board: the three boards here come with a soft case or carry bag, and the Truetone CS12 comes with mounting brackets compatible with Pedaltrain boards. The STRICH board includes hook-and-loop and harness accessories, and the Pedaltrain Classic 2 includes adhesive velcro and zipper ties. Confirm the case fits your board and the brackets fit your board before ordering.
