Pedaltrain Junior Pedalboard Review

Pedaltrain Junior Pedalboard Review

Pedaltrain has become a household name in terms of pedalboards.  You’ll see them everywhere, in all sizes and in all shapes.  The Pedaltrain Junior is my second pedalboard as I previously had a Pedaltrain PT3 which did  fine job, but was too large for my “stripped down” pedal setup.

Pedaltrain comes with everything you need to get going.  A lightweight padded carry bag, the pedalboard, high quality velcro, and some models feature a power supply mounting option.  Set up is pretty straight forward and it won’t take long before you have your favorite pedals set up in the order that makes you happy.

I explain in this video below of the Pedaltrain Junior that the wah pedal is better to be attached using plastic cable ties rather than velcro.  In my experience velcro will just bend the underside of the wah and it doesn’t seem to hold as well due to the weight.  I am  sure it varies between models but if you have a Jim Dunlop GCB style wah, get some cable ties as well.

Why you would like a pedaltrain over a hardcase alternative.

  • It’s very lightweight – weight is important.  Who want’s to carry around a box that weighs 50lbs/25kgs? not me!
  • Ease of access to swap out a pedal for a particular gig
  • You can find them everywhere these days

The only downside to the Pedaltrain Pedalboards are they are pretty expensive for what you get, otherwise they are fine.

I hope this video above answers most of the questions.  Check out the Pedaltrain website for full information

I’ve given the Pedaltrain Junior a 4/5.  It’s a great pedalboard but it’s a little bit overpriced in my view.  There’s no reason this thing should cost so much, but it’s still the best alternative to others on the market for a light weight and functional pedalboard.
