The board itself is built like a tank, no complaints there, my issue is with the soft carry case, as mentioned in a previous review, the handles are rubbish, mine are hanging on by a thread, so I've just ordered the flightcase for it (an additional ??100, which although i'm not ver the moon about, it is cheaper than getting a flightcse custom made, the cheapest I was quoted was ??150)

(the 10 rating is for the board, the case I would give a 5, its well made apart from the handles!!)

Overall a 10 for the board. BUT, if you're thinking of buying one, just get the hard case, I bought this 2 weeks before i joined my band thinking I wouldn't need the flightcase, just wish I'd got it from the start and i could've saved ??50!

It's built to last, I own the Pedaltrain 2 Hard Case and this is the best and most reliable thing I have ever bought. Every time I get it out the case it's like they are new again, I have used it for heavy playing and pedal abuse, looks like it will last my whole carrer.

my review is for the Pedaltrain 2 Hard Case. I think this is an outstanding board, just the right size, and it works beautifully with my setup.

Best pedal board in the world....hands down. Sturdy frame. Slightly sloped to allow foot access to all pedals. You will not be disappointed!

Not sure. But can't be bad for as much thought went in to building this pedal and the flight case that came with it!

Overall Rating : 10
Amazing board. I recommend you save up and get the one with the flight case if you plan on traveling any. Solid as a tank! Otherwise you will be safe witht the gig bag.

Crap. The board itself is sturdy as a tank, but the carrying case has handle that is plastic and broke on mine after not much use at all. I didn't abuse the thing either -- the handle is just constructed really poorly.
I'm getting a Furman.

OK, so here is where we get to the meat of the issue. This thing is awesome. For one thing, its huge. I paid $140 for mine w/ the softshell bag.I just cant justify paying 100 more dollars for the ATA flightcase. Maybe you can find a better deal. But anyways, I can fit my Boss GT6, Seymour Duncan Pickup Booster, Keeley Katana, Boss DD20 digital delay, Moogerfooger 101 Low pass w/ exp pedal, MXR Smartgate, Ibanez TS9 Tubescreamer, EH Small Stone(original), and Boss GE7 EQ with a little room to spare(if I wanted to pack them in I could probably fit 3-4 more pedals on there. Pedaltrain includes tons of industrial grad velcro, this stuff is tenacious. and some zip ties for the more permanent add ons. The slats in it should be standard w/ all pedal boards. No cable mess, and the wall worts, power supply/strip fit neatly under the board so no chance of some drunk ass kicking your cables...oops. I would highly recommend this board to anyone who is serious about their effects.

I asked for this pedalboard for Christmas "there really is a Santa Claus". Got tired of having me pedals in bedlam. Currently have a older
Ground Control midi Foot controller, Ibanez TS808, MXR dyna comp, nano
small stone, nano clone and planet waves tuner. Like the instructions
say with the board "great pedal boards take time" make sure you are in
a good frame of mind when you attempt this project.

It is very importaint to use the velcro all the way across the pedal
board, if you do not your pedals will fall off especially heavier ones
like the Planet Waves pedal tuner. I secured my Ground Control with 2
nylon heavy duty cable ties which I trust more than the Velcro. After
trial and error I am very happy with my setup.

Hello it's a pedalboard for cryin out sideways!!!

Reliability : 10
This pedal board was very well planned when Chandler designed it. The
slits in the rails are a very practical design and helps keep all your
cables tidy. the combinations you can come up with are endless of how
you can configure your pedals to the best of your likings. It is built
like a tank and will last for years and is a pleasure to use in live
situtions. I can still see all my pedals with my mic stand in front of
it. For those of you still using a piece of plywood for your pedalboard
it is time to part ways and invest in one of these it will be gig money
well spent!!!!

I need to contact them in regard to a problem with the carrying bag
that came with it. Sadly it is starting to rip as i have not abused
it, the frame is made from chipboard nott very sturdy. Maybe regretting
not getting the flightcase? I have only has this for 5 months so a little dissapointing. Might consider a luan wood shell for future or
a sturdier plastic shell.

This review is for the pedaltrain 2 with hardcase.

Very easy to use. The velcro works flawless. The hardcase is very strong, but relatively lightweight so carrying this board around is not so hard to do.

Sound Quality : No Opinion
it's a pedalboard...

Reliability : 9
This thing is solid as a rock. Better than the competition like the -Rex boards. The profiles used for this board are heavy duty and the welds are perfect. The hardcase that comes with it is not the heaviest type of flightcase, but it's perfect for this aplication. This pedalboard is very reliable!

This board is the best purchase of the year for me. Just believe everything people say about this board; it's rocksolid and just beautifully constructed. I can recommend pedaltrain boards to anyone.

Only had it about 2 months or so but the supplied velcro is holding up quite well. and the case aside from the damage i put on it holds up very well. Pedals sta in place and the storage compartment is nice to have.

I house a ernieball jr volume , crybaby 105q, digitech whammy (origional) mxr phase 90, mxr dyna comp, boss bf-3, boss ch-1, fulltone tremolo, boss dd-3, plus a boss tu 2, a dunlop dc brick, and a surge protector (cheap ass one). I love my pedals and I want them protected and this case has proved itself. I've been playing 6-7 years and if it were stolen i would be pissed because that's my setup and it ain't the same when replacing.

I am using the Pedal Train 2. This is a very simple, yet well thought out product. Very easy to set up my board.

This thing is a rock. I step all over my board and it doesn't budge. For its compact size, I don't think you'll find a more reliable board.

Haven't had to deal with these folks and probably won't have to.

Overall Rating : 10
My pedalboard consists of the following: TU2 Tuner, Analog Man Mini Comp, Ernie Ball Volume, Dunlop Wah, HAO Rust Booster, Voodoo Labs Sparkledrive, Demeter Tremulator, H2O and a Dunlop DC Brick for power. The board is full, but it had plenty of room for numerous combinations. I went from a board nearly twice its size and weight (with a few more pedals, I might add) and they simply do not compare. All of my boards have been wood - the aluminum really gives the board a solid feel. The case is large enough to hold all your cables and misc. crap you take to gigs. I've already got the last amp I'll ever need to buy (Matchless Chieftan 212); now I've got the last pedal board I'll ever have to buy.

I own the PedalTrain Tour Pro.
It's hardcore. Despite not having a power supply (which you can easily attach a power bar anywhere on the board), this is the best, most acessible, and ergonomically correct board I've owned.
The hardshell ATA fits is greatly and even comes with extra space for stuff. PLUS, they give hardcore velcro and zip ties. An excellent pedalboard, for sure.

It doesn't make any noises.

It's rock solid. I'd trust it anywhere, The velcro they provided me with is the best I've ever encountered. Where do they get it from. I've got enough for a while anyway.

Customer Support : 8
Havent' had to deal with them yet, but the dealer I bought the board from is great.

Overall Rating : 9
An expensive peice of gear, but it's sturdy, ergonomcially sound, and it suits my every need. No matter how many pedals I have, it seems to accomidate evrything, granted to you set you gear up right. A great idea for setup.
