Tuners

Here is a solution...very stable, you can stomp it with your hand.

The clamp is a Roland Clamp Set APC-33.

The switches are for mono/stereo, to disconnect the tuner and to bypass the whole system. There are 3 inputs for other instruments. The knob controls the effects unit like a foot pedal.

I use PVC clips at the bottom of the legs to hold the powerstrip.

Wow, What a cool setup! But how do you tune your pedals?

I tried the Conn tuner but after staring at it for a while the next thing I knew, I woke up in a pine box down at the Magic Castle which was being sawn in half by some guy named Count Hortobagy!

Bob, its easy: one small twist on the big wingnut, and the whole assembly swings away. Or I can clamp it 2 inches lower on the leg.
I must still make a hole in the unit, and put a grommet in the hole to hold the tuning wrench.
I hope that will make you sleep better.

There are these real nice clamp on tuners I have been seeing alot of these days called the Intellitouch tuner. They work fine on the steel.
