Fix Pedalboards unveiled two new angled boards in L.A. The smaller one ($40) measures 5.5" x 20" and is designed to be a lightweight but road-worthy "grab and go" board, while the Graviton ($400) measures 15" x 30" and features a built in IEC power jack and four locking 1/4" jacks. Both are made of Fix's aerospace-grade aluminum and come with a lifetime "no questions asked" warranty.
