Hey everyone. I was wondering if anyone had ever heard about modtone pedals or if anyone has any here and can tell me what they think of them.

I've been looking for a cheap decent trem pedal for awhile, and this looks good and is about $80. The Boss TR-2 retails for about $200 here in Australia, and the Behclone I wouldn't trust. And everything else just seems super expensive.

What do you think?

I have heard their tuner sucks, but otherwise they have gotten decent reviews. I was thinking of picking up the "Deep Dive" octave pedal and maybe even the "Lemon Squeeze" compressor. They also have an analogue delay.

Yeah, it seems to have all the good point a pedal needs, but I can't tell if you can run a external power supply off it?

Also can't find any reviews on them, where have you seen them aaron?

I work 12 hour shifts so I subscribe to it and save them for slow times at work.

Here's Gearmandude's video taking it around the block:

And I don't know if you saw this on their site or not but they sell their own powerbox and a pedal board so the pedals can definitely use external power.

Let us know how it goes if you get one. They have a lot of effects.
