What is the coolest pedalboard you've ever seen?

I have been thinking a lot about pedals lately (who isn't?) and was window shopping on eBay looking at envelope filters which of course lead to drooling over Mu-trons (as usual). I'm looking to build a small board with only a few pedals so this wouldn't be the path I would take, but it made me think about how cool a pedalboard filled with only Mu-tron pedals would be and came across this picture:




Sofaking Bangin'!!!! II think this is the coolest pedalboard I have ever laid eye's on!

What is the coolest you've ever seen? Bonus points if it's yours.
 
You mean the pedalboard itself, or the combination of pedals?

When it comes to just the board, I'm liking the look of the PedalPad III series, myself.
 
I like my Pedaltrain II, but for looks I like the TralierTrash one that are lit up.

Scroll through the whole page there, some very cool looking boards.
I found these guy's a few years back via Google search when I was looking for a board.

Not a new product. But perhaps the nicest all-in-one multi-effects board on the market, certainly the slickest. I don't own one, so have no dog in the hunt. Is it a pedalboard? Heck yeah:



Here's my....uh...'pedalboard'(?), certainly it's a weird one. Yes, it's a drawer that pulls out. Because in the studio this old guy needs to twiddle the controls, and the old guy's back can't take bending to deal with stuff on the floor. ;) Plus the amps are right there for tweakage. And uh...yes I keep a laptop in the 'pedalboard' too! Moving the 'pedalboard,' however, is something of a chore...

The little time I've spent with Rider's Nova makes me interested in those TC all-in-ones, but this one looks really cool... especially in red.
 
I love those TT glo-top boards. Too rich for my blood though. That Mu-board is sick Sergio!

Mike Einziger of Incubus has an incredible board. I think that a company needs to make a board like this actually. If you have a band where the vocalist is the sole guitarist and uses quite a few effects it generally makes things a bit difficult with these bulky boards, where something like Mike's actually works around that obstacle.

It would be cooler with a Mu-Tron III+....
 
This is just a mockup, but my pedalboard will look like this when it's done.

I have the normal greyish Nova System for years and have not been tempted to change it yet.
Plug it in front of a clean amp (or "edge of break-up" amp) and you are good to go for almost any style.
Both the Nova System and the G-System come in red limited editions as well.
I wish they did them in blue... :P
 
I'm a pedalboard guy and I love mine, but it's not the fanciest thing around. I pattern mine around a lot of Nashville boards since that's the music I'm doing these days and I go there a couple times of year and so those are the ones I love.

I tend to like boards with lots of drive choices and perhaps not so much of the "out there" effects. Delays, mods, etc are cool but moogs and other spaceship noises just don't do much for me sound wise. But this is about LOOKS mostly, so I guess it doesn't matter.

I'll have to think about it. But any of the top session guys in Nashville have great boards I pattern after. Tom Bukovac, Kenny Greenberg, etc etc etc.

I'm using the GT8, in manual mode, where I can assign 6 necessary effects, so I end up with 6 stomps, volume, and a cry baby tied to the loop send/return. Works for me, and it's all in one neat package.
