GUITTO Guitar Pedal Board - Effects Pedalboard Aluminum Alloy with Carry Bag, GPB-01 Small

I loved the idea of no velcro, this was a fantastic choice I have 3 pedals so far but it could fit 6 to 8 smaller ones. Very sturdy but light weight. It comes with more than enough clamps to secure the pedals and they're very easy to install.

My wife got me this Guitto GPB-02 medium-sized pedal board for Christmas. Aclam's Smart Track offers a similar pedal attachment system with more options, but sells for twice the price. This pedal board is a very solid alternative and I don't have to mess up my pedals with velcro or adhesive.Guitto's plastic fixture blocks are heavy duty and have thick rubber liners that keep the pedals from slipping. I used 4 blocks for each pedal except for the mini pedals which could only fit 2 each. I made sure to firmly squeeze the blocks against each pedal as I tightened the bolts, and the grip is strong enough that I'm able to lift the fully-loaded pedal board while grasping any pedal except the mini ones.While a bit heavier than I'd like, the pedal board is extremely sturdy with no perceptible flex. The thick plastic handles feel solid and stay clear of my cables, though there may be a space issue with the smaller GPB-01. The heavy duty rear plastic feet that snap open are very rugged. The soft case has a stiff bottom and lid, with padding all around to help protect your pedals, but time will tell if the zippers and material hold up to normal use.About the only thing I wish it had was a more flexible universal power supply mount under the board. While not all power supplies will fit underneath, my Cioks SOL fits with room to spare. Unfortunately I couldn't figure out a mounting solution without resorting to drilling holes, so until I add another pedal the SOL will stay on top.Two of the hex bolts for the fixture blocks arrived with bad threads. Guitto was responsive and sent 4 replacement bolts to me free of charge. The Guitto pedal board is well thought out and an amazing value, and I highly recommend it.

First of all, let me quote Morty Seinfeld: “I can’t stand Velcro, that TEARRRING sound!” Like Morty, I don’t like Velcro, and when it comes to pedalboards, I hate it. I hate buying used pedals with Velcro stuck on the bottom with pet hair all stuck in it and adhesive that won’t come off with sandblasting. When I saw the Guitto I knew it was for me.If I had found the Holeyboard first I probably would have bought that instead, because I had envisioned a metal pedalboard with holes in it that would allow you to secure the pedals with zip ties. But the fact is that after fruitless searching for such a pedalboard, I never found the Holeyboard, I found this, and only sometime later stumbled across the Holeyboard. I’m glad I found the Guitto first, though, because there are some design aspects of the Holeyboard that I don’t like, such as the raised two-tier design. Who needs an raised tier on a pedalboard? It just makes it bulky and wastes space. There are some advantages to the Holeyboard, such as the zip tie system. Although the Guitto’s mounting brackets hold the pedal securely, I wouldn’t exactly feel comfortable holding it upside down and shaking it to test it, but I would have no qualms doing that with the Holeyboard’s zip ties. Of course, no one should do that anyway. I did flip the Guitto upside down to take an underside photo, and the pedals held securely and didn’t budge (and I have a couple of large, heavy pedals).If I had a complaint, I would say that the instructions leave out a lot of detail and rely on the user’s common sense. The instructions didn’t tell me that when I secure the mounting brackets in the grooves, I should lift up on it slightly while tightening the screw, so it catches on the underside lip of the groove (otherwise it usually just spins without catching), but I quickly figured it out.It was kind of fun to figure out how to arrange the pedals so there’s enough room without the cord jacks getting in the way. It takes a little trial and error. I got the medium size because I like to keep a pretty minimum pedalboard, but like I said, I have a couple of fairly large pedals. I ended up staggering the pedals with one being lower, the next being higher, etc., to make the best use of space while keeping one line of pedals going left to right. The pedals are all easily accessible to step on, and the board is quite sturdy and pleasant to the eye. The design is just very smart, great for those of us who hate Velcro.

The Surf Board has arrived! And, to stay on theme, I would consider this version the Longboard because it's big... hella big, but I wanted to get that beast of a spring reverb on there! (see pics) And I did! 😎 This board is hanging 9 (pedals) even with the SURFYBEAR on there. I don't travel with it so its size wasn't a negative for me. Dude, there's nothing I didn't like about this pedalboard. Looks, function, design... high five, Guitto.The build: I had soooo much fun setting this pedalboard up. I need order in everything that I do and that is this pedalboard's specialty. The main advantage it brings to the party is, obviously, the method of attachment. No sticky, fuzzy, prickly nonsense required. The unique rail system and hold downs are VERY effective at locating and securing your pedals with ease and authority. When done right nothing is going to budge. Flip it upside down, shake it, whatever, everything stays put.The secondary win with the design is, if you haven't already defaced your pedals with miles of velcro, there's no need to. Your beloved, and often expensive, miniature works of audible art can stay minty fresh forever. I'm certain this is the only pedalboard I'll ever need.Included:Plenty of hardware to affix a ton of pedals. I had hardware to spare.A travel bag. Again, I don't need it, but it is a nice, padded bag that appears to be up to the task of carrying and protecting this beast of a pedalboard. It's nice to have in your back pocket.No regerts!!!!
