RE: SKB PS100E Pedalboards on ebay

["Bill Edmondson" <edmondson5@comcast.net>]

I still have mine despite buckling under band pressure to buy a square 
rack.
We named every piece of gear so that we could call for stuff by name when
loading the truck at the end of the night. For example, we call the
merchandise rack 'my dick' because it was the largest case in the truck and
it took 2 or three of us to move it. the drummer dubbed the ps100 'the
unstackable' because it always needed to be the top case in a stack of road
cases.

Ahhh,. .the Ps100

I bought one of those a couple years ago to house my "small" rig
(an EPD, a Vortex, and a bunch of pedals). It's pretty darn handy . . .
and light-weight too (compared to a full 16-space shock mount
rack at least). Fit's in the trunk (boot) of a standard size American
sedan too (along with my amp).

However, I'm getting kind of bored playing mono through only
one little 65 watt combo though. It doesn't show of the Vortex to
it's full potential. I'm going to play the next few gigs with the really
"big" rig. I'll hang on to the PS and my smaller "special opps" setup
(as coined by Mark Sottilaro) for the foreseeable future though.

However, the PS100 was a good solution. I'm surprised it didn't become
more popular. I guess it looked a little to "Jetson-y" as people moved
away for big racks to pedals and a more stripped-down approach.
I think I paid $125.00 for my SKP PS100 via Ebay from some guy in
Wisconsin or someplace. It was used but in brand new shape, had
all of the parts pieces and little bits. And, the power supply works
just swell too.
