$100 Pedalboard Challenge - 3 Pedalboard Builds on a Budget

[@pedaliction]

This is amazing! All the boards look great and you made them sound more than a hundred bucks!

[@BlackbirdPedalboards]

Thanks for watching! We really had a great time making the boards and agree they definitely sounded better than expected

[@Marta1Buck]

100USD is quite a lot if you live in Indonesia. Many people build copy pedals here, and they're very very cheap and don't sound bad at all. Let's just say they cost a quarter of a Beringer pedal.

[@cru2006]

wow

[@vDomMusic]

Loved this, reminded me of the budget car challenges from old Top Gear. This could be a series for sure. Something like getting 2 contrasting guitarists tone for less than 100 bucks, including the board

[@BlackbirdPedalboards]

That's a great idea!

[@josepllop7321]

this was amazing! i was just trying to build my first pedalboard. Cant believe this channel don't have millions of suscribers the quality of production is top notch

[@bassdale17]

I love the engineering on a budget concept works for all kinds of music styles.

[@floatinganarchychannel3204]

Thank you! Lets watch ;)

[@joellebrodeur1015]

That was a fun video. Glad you guys enjoyed the challenge.

[@BlackbirdPedalboards]

Thanks for watching!

[@GG-ik6it]

Yessir. I took a old cubboard door covered in duct tape and velcro but my pedals range from 20$ -$300. But i must say choosing just 3-4 really gives you focus. But i do love my 12 pedals crammed on my board

[@goldenultra]

Lots of fun. Friendly and joyous.

[@lenduckworth99]

All the boards sounded great

[@aj45045]

I have the caline orange burst and the joyo analog delay from these and they are really good pedals. A few really good guitar players that I know use them live and have a great sound!

[@fredcarter7003]

This is a great challenge,and a super video, thanks

[@djay6651]

Those are all really good boards. My challenge is actually constructing the board. I've already blown past the $100 mark years ago.

[@BlackbirdPedalboards]

I hear that. It was definitely a challenge keeping things under $100. As a builder at heart, I kept wanting to upgrade the board design beyond what my budget would allow.

[@staringdowninfinity]

Man the content keeps coming love it guys!

[@BlackbirdPedalboards]

Thanks for watching!

[@Nutamago]

I really like Ryan's board, that orange OD is a bull !! :D

[@davidreidy5750]

Dude I love this challenge!!🤖📡🪐

[@jrewhutchison4414]

Really well done video, commenting for that sweet engagement

[@sonicsnout]

I was able to build a pretty good one for about two hundred and seventy bucks - seven pedals, all of them Kmise, Azor, or Donner, using the Kmise pedalboard as a base, which includes the built in power supply. Im amazed how much fun it is. Kmise compressor - Azor blue delay - Kmise vintage overdrive - Kmise chorus - Donner autowah - Donner yellowfall delay - Azor spring reverb (as featured in this video) Five stars, would recommend

[@gelosoriano]

I really enjoyed this. They sound more expensive. 😊🎸👌🏽

[@magnusberger6762]

That Joyo analog delay is quite good, but hopeless with a battery, it’s empty within a few hours.

[@jbert6793]

Awesome video. Great tones. Question…what model is the telecaster? Sweet guitar. Thanks.

[@lambogliasebastian4770]

Amazing guys! Greetings from Argentina

[@BlackbirdPedalboards]

Thanks for checking out the video!

[@19VikingHero74]

Well done guys

[@stutty1400]

This really goes to show how much BS is talked about how great £boutique" pedals are. I have used cheap pedals for a very long time. Not once has any person from any audience commented that I should use more expensive pedals to get a better tone

[@joeblough261]

LOL! So true...just in general of gear snobs/tone snobs, and the crazy audiophiles who insist on thousands of bucks worth of equipment. Yes, having some nice gear is good, but my band played for years with cheap amps, cheap cabinets, and basic effects and somehow people loved us and the venues kept inviting us back. Hell, for 2 years we played w/out a bass player, just two guitars and a drummer and a singer - NOBODY even contemplated we didn't have a bass player. Not saying I didn't prefer having one, I'm just saying that if what you play sounds good, nobody cares.

[@EnterJustice]

@@joeblough261 There's a joke about bass players in there, somewhere, somehow...

[@lucadipaolo1997]

If it sounds good, it is good. Boutique pedals are so ridiculously expensive where I live, that they're basically not an option for 99% of musicians. Well, except for one guy that makes some pedals out of sardine tins, they're pretty cool and very affordable.

[@luqmxaxn]

Many pedals which u/ $100 are worth tone maker if we know what every pedal sounds.

[@mtk1808]

I agree, although expensive pedals are not just fancy things, they have more tone variety and depth, and the quality is better. But they are just more catered to pedal snobs.

[@lxndrvrdr3932]

David's board is my fav

[@BrianLeverett]

The Caline Orange Burst is legit!

[@reverendg5937]

Thank You for Excellent Video!!! I Appreciate It!!!

[@BlackbirdPedalboards]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@crazywisdom2]

Great job you guys. Loved the contest. You should do it again ! I thought that Casey had the best look overall. Ryan had the Best sound, and David had the best case.

[@DsJourneyNPG]

Love this video. Thankz!!😊

[@alfreGr]

This is so great!

[@onlyusernameleft2]

When it comes to lower cost pedals, Caline is always a safe bet.

[@HL-OOI]

Nice I want to make one table top board for only 2 pedals for my acoustic which are preamp and comp..😁

[@njcranes]

Fun project!

[@19VikingHero74]

You guys should check out some of the pedals from Flamma. I bought the FC17 and the FC01. Both pedals sound amazing, and they don't break the bank.

[@Thegamesdungeonyoutube]

love this kind of content, great work folks :)

[@sujantamang4558]

Thanks for this awesome video! What is that ALTOIDS box in Ryan’s pedal board? Also can you please share the schematic of how all those pieces are connected? Thanks!

[@evgenyti3250]

An altoids box on a pedalboard is usually just a small utility box with spare picks, batteries and condoms. Altoids are just easy to find small boxes

[@ryantatum6295]

Ya it was for picks

[@DerianGames]

Ryans board my favorite

[@randaldavis8976]

surprised no one put a multi function pedal on.

[@JackOwensMusic]

Can we get a tutorial on the first case!?

[@cutseencinematics]

what is the altoids tin for?

[@seantots8657]

For guitar picks

[@xbob]

Is the car in the processor cost comparison statement an average car or a musician's car? :-) This was a fun exercise. Thanks!

[@BlackbirdPedalboards]

ha definitely musician's car. Glad you enjoyed the video!

[@ian5780]

Where you get those quarter inch Jack's for your custom patch cables?

[@Liquormans]

Cool video new subscriber 🍁

[@BricksAndSparrows]

The inclusion of the board, power and cables in the budget sucked some of the fun out of this, in my opinion. Still an awesome video.

[@webbedhand]

Tone is in the Altoid tins.

[@marcymcflybv1558]

Hmmm does multi effects count? Not sure if I understood the conditions correctly 😅

[@robertpack125]

VERY intriguing!!! ...but HEY! Why not do the SAME challenge - but for BASS Guitar?!?!?!

[@Drunken_Hamster]

Now take from all 3 of these and make an even better pedal board.

[@tzenobite]

anything about david making his pedalboard?

[@CireLovesIvy]

You can buy GE100 a multifx pedal for like 70$ :)

[@mehulmartin2266]

What’s in the altoid tin

[@MobileDecay]

Once you busted out the table saw you lost. Table saws aren't free. Lol.

[@lukehenderson436]

I’m glad I’m not the only person that thought this.

[@makarlibich276]

GJ))))

[@bemorecheetah]

Third.... (Sniffle) #caline #ftw

[@ic3berg339]

clearly im just busting your chops

[@joerausch5756]

You could play out of a turd and it would still sound good. Can't buy the hours of practice you guys have put in!

[@ab8817]

those pedals are all now $45 each
