FootNote Amplified Pedalboard

1SKB-FN-8

Notify Me If This Product is Updated


The 1SKB-FN-8 FootNote is the very first amplified pedalboard. Featuring a built-in 5W combo amp and a 6" Eminence® speaker, the 1SKB-FN-8 FootNote is like no other pedalboard on the market.

The injection molded pedalboard features a 9” x 12” mounting surface which is sloped for easier access to the rear pedals and the 1SKB-FN-8 FootNote can power up to (8) 9VDC battery powered pedals with the supplied power cables. Additionally, the FootNote features a 1/8” AUX/MP3 stereo line input for external audio playback and incorporates the same cable tester found on the 1SKB-PS-55 StageFive Professional pedalboard. Included is a Headphone Output for monitoring or silent practice and a Line Out that is ideal for live or recording use. The convenient internal speaker on/off switch is independent of the Line Out and Headphone Output modes for maximum flexibility. One of the most unique features is the Speaker Out that allows the FootNote to drive an external 4 ohm speaker load. The FootNote can run on AC with the supplied thermal protected power supply or DC power using 6 D-Cell batteries (batteries not included).

The most versatile pedalboard on the market, the 1SKB-FN-8 FootNote is great whether on stage, at home, at a park or on a tour bus.
