Quality Would you consider this product to be made well? How dependable? I've had this for over a year and it's been knocked around quite a bit and it's still in great condition. Reliability How has it stood up over time? As long as you take care of it, it seems it will last forever. However, be cautious with the power connector. since it enters vertically rather than at a 45 degree angle, if you have little kids running around, they may trip and damage it - like mine did. However, if you have any pedals on the board that have a power option (like the boss tuner or noise supressor) you can simply plug into onne of those and everything still has power. since the power/output board can be replaced with quick removal of a few screws, it's actually a remediable situation Overall Your general opinion of this product. This is a great board especially if you use Behringer or Boss pedals for most of your kit. Playability and Feel How does it feel, Heavy, Fast, Chunky? How was the neck? Are the controls easy to get to while playing? It protects the pedals and allows quick setup can teardown. It's awesome. I got it when it was $99 so they apparently realized they had a winner too! Tone Bright and snappy? Dark and smooth? Were the pickups hot, mellow, thick, thin? N/A Finish How did the stain or paint job look? If you pay attention to the ruber feet on the bottom, you'll have no problem setting it up... just be careful I was not paying attention once and opened it bottom first once haha was a mess. It would also be nice if there was an angle to the board but that can be remedied with a little ingenuity. Action How was the action out of the box? N/A

Quality Would you consider this product to be made well? How dependable? As others have said, the latches will break with any kind of abuse. But most of these units will be going to bedroom players, so that issue is largely moot. Reliability How has it stood up over time? Just got it, so that still has to be determined. I am encouraged on that front, though, by the other reviews. Overall Your general opinion of this product. The vast majority of pedals will have no trouble fitting snugly (if not exactly tightly), Boss, Keeley, TC Electronic, Dunlop, Fulltone and Modtone especially. However, almost none of the MXR and Red Witch stomp boxes, the Satriani Satchurator and etc, and Pigtronix will. Moreover, Because Morley Wah pedals have such a big footprint, they will eat up four of those slots after you remove that part of the foam liner. Still, given the price compared to even just a power brick, this is an excellent deal. The instructions aren't too hot, which may cause some consternation among beginners. Anyway, I will be getting out the velcro and dumping the foam liner. Playability and Feel How does it feel, Heavy, Fast, Chunky? How was the neck? Are the controls easy to get to while playing? Tone Bright and snappy? Dark and smooth? Were the pickups hot, mellow, thick, thin? Finish How did the stain or paint job look? Good. The board has a large footprint itself, but then again, it does hold up to a dozen pedals. Action How was the action out of the box?

Quality Would you consider this product to be made well? How dependable? Its heavy duty seems to be well constructed and houses my multi effects unit with no problem,I would buy it again if faced with the decision. Reliability How has it stood up over time? As mentioned earlier I've had no trouble out of it in the 1+ years I've owned it Overall Your general opinion of this product. Bought this case around the time that I purchased 3 Behringer effects pedals in the end I decided to remove everything but the power supply from it and now use it to store my multi effects unit in. Its heavy duty this is for sure I puchsed my from an online retailer and got a steal in the price department it will hold 12 pedals and will also power other name brand pedals through the included daisy chain power supply,you get an ample number of patch cords in the package which is another plus I've owned this board for over a year now and some times will power up my Behringer pedals with it so as to have my multi effects pedal board and single Behringer effect going at the same time and have had no trouble out of it.

Quality Would you consider this product to be made well? How dependable? quality of this board is pretty good. dont count on the supplied cables and power supply though. Reliability How has it stood up over time? I've had it for over and year and have done some monderate gigging. would not recommend for everyday road use. the plastic hinges dont look like that would hold up to hard use. Overall Your general opinion of this product. I picked this board up over a year ago. the price was about $30 less than it is now, but still a great deal. i was looking for a pedalboard this size and this was the cheapest by far. i didnt use the cables and powersupply that came with it. Playability and Feel How does it feel, Heavy, Fast, Chunky? How was the neck? Are the controls easy to get to while playing? not heavy, easy to carry Tone Bright and snappy? Dark and smooth? Were the pickups hot, mellow, thick, thin? Finish How did the stain or paint job look? looks good but does carry the Behringer name in big letters on the case.

Quality Would you consider this product to be made well? How dependable? Reliability How has it stood up over time? OK like flight cases for travel but this has held up nicely,it's to cary pedals.box protects on stage i use a matel and carpet 24" x 18" floorboard, built it with 1" plywood mdf bottom with carpet on top glued down then metal edging just like cabs have all around w/ incline step under, but like it almost flat. Overall Your general opinion of this product. for price and size great i currently run 8 boss pedals,1 ibanez 808 tube screamer and planet waves strobe tuner pedal which usually stays right by my marshall not in box, great deal but, after purchase go to local guitar store and by however many u need, patch cables, even hosa makes a better patch cable than the thin ones they put in hear but i like mus. gear tweed, prefer mogami's but after purchase of 5th pedal was two exp. 22.95 per patch cable .5 or 1/2' look in back page of guitar world every month i do and always an illustration of how big time giggers run there effects interesting how all seem to go a certain way on their own Playability and Feel How does it feel, Heavy, Fast, Chunky?

Finish How did the stain or paint job look? looks like cevlar but is just good hard ind. grade plastic not bulletproof, but never tried! Action How was the action out of the box? worried between carryin in and out and rides it takes, poss. putting it front of boom stand for me to step on may be bit much, serves purpose, transport.

Quality Would you consider this product to be made well? How dependable? Obviously it's made out of plastic, and not as tough as a flight case, but it's made of a very tough plastic and I'd definitely consider it to be roadworthy. The only thing I don't like about this unit is the power supply cable is flimsy, it's basically a thin wire with an AC adaptor. Would be much better if it were a heavier duty removable AC with a 3-prong plug Reliability How has it stood up over time? I've only had it for a month now, but through being put through several gigs, a couple trips to the studio, and several practices, I'm confident that it will hold up well. Overall Your general opinion of this product. This is the best deal for the money. Built tough and roadworthy, I have already recommended this to several people. I'm very please with this pedalboard and would definitely buy it again Playability and Feel How does it feel, Heavy, Fast, Chunky? How was the neck? Are the controls easy to get to while playing? The height of the unit and pedal spacing is good. The only problem I had was getting used to the outer rim where it is raised around the edges, but it's no biggie. Just took a couple of practices to get used to because I had previously used a flat pedalboard Tone Bright and snappy? Dark and smooth? Were the pickups hot, mellow, thick, thin? It's good overall, the cables included are the cheapies and have some hum in them... spend about $45 on some good ones and bingo! instant 200% improvement. Finish How did the stain or paint job look? It has a well built, tough look to it. Nice Action How was the action out of the box? How was the action out of the box? It came right out with no problem... Seriously, no complaints

Chris R from Pittsburgh, PA 15228
Quality Would you consider this product to be made well? How dependable? The case itself is well made. The power supply seems to be pretty solid. The wires that come with it are of average quality. Reliability How has it stood up over time? Acquired over 90 days ago. So far so good. Plastic case is holding up well. Latches seem like the part that will fail over time. Overall Your general opinion of this product. This is a useful pedalboard with specific limitations. If you have different sized pedals then you will have to make alterations to the mounting foam or remove some of it altogether. The power supply is 9v so you need to look for another solution if you have different voltages. Playability and Feel How does it feel, Heavy, Fast, Chunky? How was the neck? Are the controls easy to get to while playing? It feels like a plastic pedalboard case. That said, it's not too big or awkward to carry. Tone Bright and snappy? Dark and smooth? Were the pickups hot, mellow, thick, thin? The power supply seems quiet and introduces little to no hum/noise. Finish How did the stain or paint job look? Hard shell case is tough and scuff resistant. Action How was the action out of the box? Out of the box, this product is (not surprisingly) designed specifically for Behringer and similarly sized pedals. My Hardwires were too big and require modification of the mounting foam for proper fit.

Quality Would you consider this product to be made well? How dependable? Not worried about cheap plastic... this thing should hold together. My ONLY fear is the plastic slides used to lock the lid down. But if I don't cram more crap than I should, it won't be a problem. Reliability How has it stood up over time? Over the month that I've had it... rock solid. Overall Your general opinion of this product. Absolutely love this product. It's allowed me to easily consolidate a variety of pedals. My board has 3 Boss, 4 Digitech, Line 6 XDR1 receiver, wah, boutique, and Ernie Ball volume pedal. Pop the foam out, cut it to size, duck the included power cables underneath, and viola... nice clean pedalboard. I plug in the A/C adapter and out to amp and I'm playing.

Quality Would you consider this product to be made well? How dependable? High quality item. Some say that the power supply is not reliable but I have no problem and I carry a backup Reliability How has it stood up over time? Very solidly built. I loaded it with all BOSS pedals, including three twin pedals and it shows no stress. I actually squeezed one more pedal than it was designed to hold...no problem. Overall Your general opinion of this product. This is a pretty amazing board. The thing I like about it is the ability to house pedals with no Velcro! This makes it easy to remove a pedal and replace it. Playability and Feel How does it feel, Heavy, Fast, Chunky? How was the neck?

Quality Would you consider this product to be made well? How dependable? Audio cables = junk Everything else = Best deal on the market Reliability How has it stood up over time? Only had it a month but it looks pretty tough. The latches may be an issue over time. Overall Your general opinion of this product. Think of all the things you want to spend your money on. I couldn't justify a pedalboard costing 2 to 3x's as much and I didn't need to. This is sturdy, lightweight, has plenty of room and does the job well.

Quality Would you consider this product to be made well? How dependable? Far better then the pedal train gig bags etc. You know that your knobs are safe and protected during transport! Reliability How has it stood up over time? It's a new product, but so far so good. The case is made solid. Overall Your general opinion of this product. Surprising quality for the money. Patch cables and power cables are well constructed.I use boutique pedals of all different sizes so the foam cut outs were of no use to me.I discarted them and used 2" sticky back velcro. Sticks great to the plastic. It has the nice option of a patch bay for your guitar and amplifier. Sweet! 1 cord in and 1 cord out. I added a loop pedal which is awesome for getting your sounds ready on the fly. All it takes is a little planning. This thing is pretty cool! Playability and Feel How does it feel, Heavy, Fast, Chunky? How was the neck? Are the controls easy to get to while playing? It takes a bit of getting use to because it is a fair size. May take a few tries to organize but the plug and play is awesome once you get it right! Tone Bright and snappy? Dark and smooth? Were the pickups hot, mellow, thick, thin? Signal is clean and unaffected by the patch bay. Noise free ! Finish How did the stain or paint job look? The inside finish is real smooth and is great for velcro sticky tape!!
