Don’t Skimp on Pedalboard Protection


The thrift-shop suitcase. The cyclist’s messenger bag. The repurposed Swedish furniture. Why is it that we guitarists will happily spend thousands in the pursuit of tone yet leave our gear vulnerable with cheap and second-rate pedalboard cases? If you’ve been gambling with your gear by using low-cost case solutions, then it’s only a matter of time before disaster strikes.


Instead, why not say goodbye to DIY solutions and invest in the protection your guitar gear deserves with a road-ready pedalboard case from Sweetwater? Whether it’s a wheeled TSA flight case or a lightweight canvas backpack, you’ll find the case that suits your gigging needs right here.

Pedalboard Case FAQs


I only take my board out a few times a year. Do I still need a case?


Pedalboards aren’t only for players hauling their studio boards to church or sessions every weekend. In fact, there are numerous benefits that cases and gig bags offer, even to the casual player. Here are a few examples:


  • Pedal longevity: It doesn’t take too many drops on concrete or tumbles in a car to damage the fragile components in even today’s top-rated effects pedals. Cases help protect against shock and impact damage to preserve the life of your vintage stomps and pricy floor units.
  • Elemental protection: If you think your Members Only jacket is enough to protect your pedals from moisture in transit from the van to the stage, then you could be in for a rude awakening. Even canvas gig bags do a far better job of keeping rain and snow from wrecking your flow.
  • Settings preservation: You know how sore you get when your bass player bumps the tone knob on your vintage Klon? A pedalboard case helps lock in those settings from home to the stage.
  • Dust/rust defense: Unsightly household dust and corrosive coastal sea spray are always seeking to tarnish the look and tone of your pedals. Casing up your board between uses will keep your pedals feeling fresh and new.
  • Aesthetic advantage: Have you ever seen heads turn when a guitarist rolls into a gig with pro gear? First impressions matter a great deal to potential bandmates and first-time audiences. Do you really want to stumble into the venue five minutes late, carrying a rat’s nest of cable spaghetti? Or would you rather arrive with an amp and a guitar in each hand and a pedalboard slung over your shoulder, looking like a Wild West gunslinger with a score to settle?


Hard case or gig bag — which is right for my pedalboard?


Hard cases generally offer greater protection than soft and semi-rigid cases but can also be heavier and more difficult to maneuver in tight spaces. Gig bags and backpacks still offer a good deal of protection while increasing mobility. Our advice: If you’re flying or touring, then a hardshell case is best. For everyday gigging and practice, find a case that balances mobility and protection.
