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. |
