"I used the other name brand pedals for the longest time, and there was always something going wrong with them. There was always something to worry about, like the chain snapping during a show, the floor board coming loose, or screws coming out and getting lost. NOT ANY MORE! At the 2008 NAMM show I went to the TRICK booth and tried their pedals. I was sold instantly! It’s definitely for real! The best pedal ever! The whole thing is made out of high grade aluminum, stainless steel, and titanium! Even the beater! This pedal will never break! There is no chain to break! You can literally adjust anything you want on this pedal! ANYTHING! It is so easy to use! It feels SOOO smooth! It's completely stress free, I’m so glad don't have to worry anymore about my pedal breaking or something coming loose during a show!"
