    That Gav had to get his legs surgically lengthened by approx 3 feet to reach one of his delay pedals. 

    Human rights activists were up in arms because the donor leg came from a man who needed the money to feed his kids. In whats been called a the new "quick rich scheme" more men from struggling households are now offering up their legs for guitarists with big pedalboards, with some pedal companies, like Moog, offering pedal and leg extension package deals.

    The price of copper will go through the roof if he ever decides to re-cable it.

    I have seen said board in the flesh. 

    Its not as big as you would think. It is a mighty sight and I felt a bit over whelmed with all the stuff to step on. 
    However Gav is not the tallest fella so it was quite amusing watching him carry it as it is almost as big as he is. 
    The Bigsby was the first successful design of what is now called a whammy bar or tremolo arm, although vibrato is the technically correct term for the musical effect it produces. In standard usage, tremolo is a rapid fluctuation of the volume of a note, while vibrato is a fluctuation in pitch. The origin of this nonstandard usage of the term by electric guitarists is attributed to Leo Fender, who also used the term “vibrato” to refer to what is really a tremolo effect.

    I have a wonderful track record for re-homing unloved pedals.. I'll take each pedal off you for the very reasonable cost of £20 per pedal, you know just to cover costs of paint touch ups, reapplying velcro, nice new 9v battery etc.. Once a year you will receive a Soundcloud clip just to let you know how your pedals are getting on in their new home..

    Your pedals deserve the best care..

    I would also mention some one has a significantly larger board on here. 

    I forget his name but it has 2 layers and a second board attached to it.

    @teetonetal - great idea, however, how can you guarantee though that they won't be used for evil? And that no country and western music shall be piped through them, or that they are not surgically stuck to the side of rabbits in a similar way to this?

    As for pedals, one of my most depenable pedals cost £35 and its irreplaceable. 
    I am going to upset @GavHaus and suggest that the M5 I just bought pretty much matches my empress superdelay in terms of quality and sound...
