Ben	Re: The Velcro Rebuttal! My two cents.... What I do is teh folling... as all pedals have some sort of bottom plate that is fixed by mean of screws... I just insert some metal plate with 4 holes in between the screw and the bottom plate of the pedal. since the plate has 4 holes I got usually 2 good holes that I can use with 2 screws to hold any pedal firmly onto a board made of wood. Those metal plate can be bought for cheap at any hardware store. So each pedals gets 4 metal plate holding them dowm... and if i want to remove one just unscrew the one desired... no hamr done to the painting, no glue added and no mat peeled off. And for those of you who get smart and wonder yeah that's great for most pedal .. but what about the Morleys where the 4 screw to hold the plate are on the sides... well just use 90degrees metal plate that are also available at the hardware store (they probably are just on the side of the other one I was refering to earlier!) Just a tip I thought I'd share use or not that's your decision not mine.
