Pedal Boards by MKS Professional Stage Products, Inc.
Dreaming of the perfect pedal
board? Well stop dreaming!
MKS Professional
Stage Products has effectively bridged the gap between custom and
entry level pedal boards by producing a unique modular system that
allows guitar and bass players the ability to customize their guitar
and bass effects chain set-up for a fraction of the cost. Pedal
Pad's patented design allows maximum flexibility to stair-step or
ramp your pedals on 2 tiers.
There are 2 basic Pedal Pad
Pedal Board types:
1. The AXS Road Series Pedal
Boards including the AXS II, AXS-XL and AXS Road Buddy, are designed for
budget conscious players who still want the road ruggedness of our Pro
Series MPS line and the ability to "stick" pedals anywhere on the felt
board surface with lift up panels for storage underneath.This is a Non-Powered board. However, you can still purchase
our Power Pad II - Switching Power Supply and mount it to the board
surface (Note: The Power Pad II does not fit under the panels due to how
the plug is configured within the unit). Effects attach to the board
surface with the included Velcro. There are open channels on both sides
of the lift up panels and down the center on the AXSII and AXS-XL.
2.
Our Pro Series MPS Pedal Board Road series
is equipped with MKS' unique, patented, modular design allowing players
to ramp, or stair-step their effects in any combination across the board
surface with the included interchangeable metal panels. The Power Pad II
- Switching Power supply comes standard with the MPS and larger brother,
the MPS-XL. In addition, either board can be purchased without the power
supply, if you just want the modular design and extra center brace
strength.Effects attach to the board surface with the included Velcro, though
there are several other methods players have used such as cable ties,
etc. Another benefit of having the Power supply inset on the board, is
you can use a large part of the unit for added board space such as
stretching a wah or volume pedal across the first and second tiers and
you can turn the unit on/off from the top of the board.

My
Pedal Pad is the coolest. Having the modular panels makes all the
difference when arranging pedals. The provided power supply is super
clean and quiet too. The metal panels that hide unsightly patch cables
have a sleek look.
I
recommend Pedal pad to any pro guitarist who requires a reliable board
while touring the globe.

"The Pedal Pad Pedal Board
is extremely easy to use; the set-up is a breeze, the power supply
has more than enough inputs to power a wide array of pedals, and the
versatile patch bay is a huge plus. It's compact and sturdy, and I
have found it to be very reliable."Guitar World Senior Editor
& International touring musician Andy Aledort

I've had this unit for over 2 years now and it's bullet-proof.
It's taken a beating too! I fly out for gigs just about every
weekend, and the airlines beat the crap out of it. I open it up when
I get to the gig and everything works great. My pedals always sound consistently great
when powered from this power supply. Again, the design is ideal for the type of brutal air traveling
that is associated with my gigs. I tried 2 other brands of
pedal boards before I found out about MKS and they pale in
comparison. ~ Bill Leverty - Firehouse
This is awesome! It
seriously is a custom board for a fraction of a custom board
price. You really have to see them in person to fully know the
limitless custom capabilities of it. Thanks again, for the
first time in years I'm actually happy with my pedalboard!
I've tried everything
from nailing my effects to a 2x4 to custom, hand made pedal boards.
NOTHING compares to the Pedal Pad. This is the single best accessory I
have ever gotten. Thanks guys, I don't know what I'd do without it!"
