GUITTO Guitar Pedalboard - Secure Clip-On Design Pedal board Aluminum Alloy with Carry Bag No Adhesive Needed GPB-02 Medium

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.

"Upgraded" to the large size from the medium size. Fits all of the pedals I use & even had room for additional pedals "just in case." Highly recommend this board. It's a little heavy & long, but I'm attributing that to build quality. It seems like this board will last, but time will tell. Bag seems well made but I added additional foam/padding to the "lower" part where your board would hit the ground when carrying & setting down. That area had no additional padding. Top & bottom seem to have some kind of either stiff cardboard or plastic so the case doesn't flop around. Accessory pocket very nice addition to carry cables, chargers, etc. Could have been bigger to cover more surface area & fit more things, but it's decent enough.

The concept of these boards isn't new - it was invented by Aclam Pedalboard System, but Aclam ones are way more expensive. Joyo/Guitto took the concept and came up with their own versions, which are more budget friendly although still not cheap.I have two of these boards: small for bass and medium for guitar. Both boards are very well thought out, sturdy, extremely well made, installing and replacing pedals is very easy task once you get used to it. The fixture blocks hold pedals in place firmly, two handles help to move the boards around if needed, flip out front legs provide the tilt, there are power supply mounting brackets under the boards, and carrying cases are also very well made. I had to purchase more fixture blocks for my guitars board, but only because I chose to use mini pedals.Honestly, I can't fault the boards for anything because they have completely fit my needs and met my expectations. Perhaps they could be lighter, but it's really not a deal breaker. Yes, the fixture blocks take some room, and it's not possible to place the pedals immediately next to each other; however, it's a "necessary evil" in order to provide the functionality.Having used Velcro and chain links to mount my pedals in the past, I'm completely happy with these boards and will never go back to the old ways. I highly recommend these boards to anyone who wants to ditch conventional pedal mounting methods.
