Just found one of these at a pawn shop, I paid 80 bucks.
It looks to be in good nick.
No box or manual though..
I bought it on the spot because I thought it was a hard to come by pedal.
Its MIJ but its serial decodes it to 1990. (Ab23781)

Anyone here have one?/Use one?

Can't wait to try her out when I get home!

Nice score! I've been told that FT-2 pedals have been going up in price. I bought mine about a month ago. Excellent "quack"

Nice mate. What year is yours?
I just tested mine out, sounds cool. Not as fake as I thought it would.

I took some pics from my phone

Hey hateandwar,

Mine dates to May 1987. Yours looks like it's in excellent condition. Enjoy it!

+1 ^^^^!!!!!!

I'd drive that distance if I had it so close to me. I want a FT-2 for my sound but here no one seems to have it and ebay has gone nuts about it lately.

That's also my policy since not so long ago, after dating someone who lived more than 50 km away...

Back to the topic: I've seen demos of the TW-1 on youtube (sounds cool!) but no demos from the FT-2. Have you heard about a TW-1 or FT-2 clone that sounds good? I've seen some demos of the Danelectro, Beh, Tonecore... But none of them seems to be any good.
