Furman Introduces SPB8 Stereo Pedal Board / Power Conditioner(Furman | Posted 2002-12-14)  Furman Sound,Inc., will display the highly successful SPB-8 pedal board at the 2003 Winter NAMM Expo, booth 6990, HALL A. The SPB-8 not only securely holds up to eight stereo or mono effects pedals, but it also is an extremely convenient way for guitarists, bassists and other musicians to transport and use their effects and signal processing pedals - IE 'stomp boxes'. The SPB-8 also provides Furman's Power Conditioning to every stomp box that is plugged into it.
"The SPB-8 is a very unique product," commented Joe Desmond, Furman's VP of Sales and Marketing. "Our engineers have turned what is usually assembled in a musician's garage into a professional guitar product. It works with either mono or stereo effects located either on the pedal board or in a rack. The SPB-8 has two amplifier outputs as well as either mono or stereo effects sends and returns. There are three surge protected AC receptacles for providing power to amplifiers or other peripheral equipment and eight 9 VDC regulated and individually protected 1/8th inch power outlets that provide power to the pedals."
"When we were doing our market research many of the people we spoke to about this project were quite surprised that we were getting involved with this part of the industry" commented Casey Zygmont, Furman's National Sales Manager. Casey went on to say, "Although this product is somewhat out of the norm for us, we feel that it is in line with our basic business philosophy. Build products that fill a niche, solve problems and present a good value. Additionally we feel that we are uniquely qualified to build this product since we have so many guitar players on our staff."
The SPB-8's highly-tempered polycarbonate platform insures both rugged construction as well as minimal weight. Its surface is covered with a large heavy duty Velcro sheet that will provide a secure grip to any pedal or effects box. The retail price of $399.00 includes a cordura gig bag.
