One of those "why didn't I think of that?" kind of things. Think its pretty cool, might pick one up when I finally buy a pedal board.

It might be my drunken confusion, but i just don't understand this.
Nor do I have the energy to try

Seems to be very very expensive, especially when the flight case (which looks to be just plastic) is $200 in addition to the price of the board.
Some velcro and a plank of wood comes in at about $30. A pedaltrain standard with flight case goes for about $100 used. This thing is $450 with case! I'm really curious as to who finds velcro $350 too annoying...
Plus it looks like you have to pull off the whole front panel to unscrew the pedal. With velcro, you just give it a tug.

Yea, I'm confused here, the site does not really explain what's up.
No real interest, Ye Olde Pedaltrain works just fine for me and used ones are cheaps.

i dont get it.
the frame looks pretty slick, but the expanded metal mounting system confuses me without more info.
its funny, im a welder by profession, yet i use a beatup plywood board/case. may be time to get the old welding machine out and make a cross between this and a pedaltrain clone

The board certainly looks cool, but I don't get how they can imply that having to flip the thing up and unscrew that mounting plate and then screw it in again is easier or less hassle than just picking up a velcro'd pedal and moving it. I guess I've just never had a problem with velcro, so it's tough for me to care.
And yes, it is pretty damned expensive compared to the Pedaltrain.

This is really annoying.
I hate when someone offers a flashy product but doesn't give a lot of actual information.
Like, I know it comes in three colors and has a flight case with it.
But I have no idea how the mounting system actually works, because they don't show any actual pictures of their
"patent pending Quick Release Pedal Mounting System".
I tried finding a video to explain more, and it spent just about as much time saying it was a "guitar AND bass pedalboard" as it did showing them screwing on the pedal.

And then there's this video.

After all this, I still have no goddamn idea why this is supposedly better than using velcro.
Like, if it's supposed to be great, tell me about why and sell me on it.
