What do I buy to mount AxeIII under my desk?

[MackieFX]

I want to mount my axe under my desk. Screwed in to the underside of it. I know I need a rack mount of some description but Ive no idea what to buy. Or even what to search.

I would suggest searching for rack rails.

Thanks, bought this!

I find it strange that rack mounting the axefx leaves the whole back of the unit free-hanging. Even when horizontal... Isn't this bad for the unit?

Isn’t that what rack mounting is?

No, that's how racks works and it's built for it.

Some heavier rack mounted items like power amps come with rack ears on both the front and back for this reason, but obviously you need a rack that has the screw holes on both front and back for this. The Axe Fx is light enough that it doesn't need the extra support.
