"It's alright"

This reviewer purchased this item from Same Day Music.

Feature:

pros: I love the 8-slot power jacks and connectors. The Velcro on the board is strong and clings well cons: The sticky velcro doesn't stick as well to the pedals, so when I pull one up to move it, the velcro tears off. The board is almost completely flat. This is a HUGE problem to me, as to step on any of the rear pedals, I have to knowingly avoid hitting the tops of the first row pedals. More than once at gigs, I've accidentally moved knobs on the front row pedals with my shoes / toes. The wiring is all over the place- with 8 individual pedals, there's no room left to run the power wires and the cross connections from the first to the second row. It would have been spectacular if they had drilled holes in the bottom, middle, and top so you could loop the wires (and tie the slack) under the board, leaving a much cleaner and viable surface. Again, the lack of proper angling really ruins it the most, but the lack of forward thinking with the wiring (harnessing) comes in at a close second.

Ease of Use:

Easy to understand and set up

Quality:

The quality is about average, but when I add in my pros and cons, it really brings down the overall rating in both satisfaction and quality (design quality = very poor)

Manufacturer Support:

N/A

Value:

It's probably worth the price, although with gear, if it's not useful, It's never really worth the price, is it?

The Wow Factor:

No wow here.

Overall:

Overall, I really like some things about it and not others. See my comments below.
