The Earl
The Earl was my first tapered hardwood board, and remains one of the most popular models. The tapered frame allows easier access to pedals further back, ensuring you don't knock the settings of those upfront. Combined with a hinged top board, the taper gives space for storage inside, expanding options on various levels.
Customise your connections for stereo, wet-dry, wet-dry-wet or any other setup with optional jack sockets, MIDI, XLR and other common connections.
As protecting our equipment is important, all Earls come with a hardcase, wrapped in your choice of tolex & tweed.
Perfect for Switchers
Switchers have become a key component of modern pedalboards. The Earl is designed to make the most of your switcher, offering cutouts for recessing it in the frame for a more comfortable playing angle. Coupled with internal storage for more pedals, it's ideal for the 'mothership'.
Dovetail Construction
All of my frames use Dovetail joinery. This is likely the most beautiful of joints, and provides a strong and stable frame for all environments.
Hinged Top Board
The Earl was the start of my hinged boards. Offering storage for power supplies, cable routing and more pedals. Held securely by two 6kg-pull magnets.
Plug & Play
All Earls come with audio in & out pre-installed; 1/4" socket on the outside and inside. Add custom connections - XLR, USB etc - from the Accessories page. In addition to the installed IEC lead, just set up your pedals and start playing.
Hardwood Frame
All of my frames are 100% hardwood - you'll find no veneer here. Available in any of the Standard woods - Ash, Cherry, Mahogany, Maple, Oak & Walnut - or a selection of exotic woods in Special Reserve.
