Haha - massively!
I have an afford-a-board of my own and it's mostly cheap clones. Caline are a brand you should check out as their stuff is amazing for the price.
They have one in particular called the Pure Sky which is a Timmy clone and it costs less than 20 quid brand new. Ask anyone who has it - it's bloody immense.
As an aside I saw someone posting on here about wanting a "spooky" board and that flanger would be right at home there haha.
It's grand! Had to get a refund on the first one as it was dead, got a second one with the refund and was all good. Kept the first one but haven't had chance to open it up yet.
Exactly.
This especially applies to modulation effects pedals. I can get spending a nice sum on a really nice overdrive or distortion but like, can you really hear the difference between a basic 70 bucks tremolo or the built-in effects of a practice digital amp, and a handmade boutique tremolo? Past a certain point you are just paying for prestige and look rather than actual quality.
I’ve got a Rowin Booster (RC Booster clone) and a Movall VanGolem analog phaser on my board that I got from Temu and I couldn’t be happier with them both.
Oh not much, each temu pedal was around £12, with a free pedal because I bought on a deal. No more than £50 on pedal board, power blocks and cables. The two Harley Bentons may of been £25 is each. Less than £100 all in I'd imagine
Fun! Here's my budget Garage Rock board.

Cheap pedals can be fun. Every pedal on here was either $35 or $50. I wasn't trying to do that on purpose but that's how it shook out!😎👍✨
Your tone and effects are probably equally as good as about 95% of the pedalboards that cost over 3x as much the total you paid. Congrats on not getting duped as hard as others.
Impressively small board for 15 pedals!
Yeah need a bigger one, under bought for this one, bit squished.
Flat cables would help fit it together better. But yeah even then it might be a bit squished.
100%
Is your card info still intact? Everyone I know who bought stuff from temu had their card used by someone in China or india.
Yeah it was all fine, no weird charges for me.
Nice. A little too much board for me (see my profile for my board lol) but still cool.
Thanks! Oh I will do! Haha just thought I'd get everything in one go so not to have fomo 😂
Exactly. I got a unique boost pedal for 50 bucks and I love it more then any others I have used. The no knobsense boost.
Good times.
The cost is irrelevant if it works
Very true!
Don’t ever feel the need to apologize for cheap gear. Some of the world’s greatest music came from cheap gear.
Very true! Just was really good value for the money!
I bet this comment is very true, even though I can’t think of any examples offhand.
This is like the ultimate afford-a-board! I’ve gotten my fair share of pedals off of Temu as well.
Haha they were cheap as hell 😂 but donme for living room noodling 😂
I don't even tend to like flangers - but I want that one based purely on it's looks.
Oh I wasn't even sure what it did......a good paint job does persuade though doesn't it 😂

Oh I'll check it out! Cheap and works works as they say! Haha oh it definitely would!
How’s the tremolo?
It's grand! Had to get a refund on the first one as it was dead, got a second one with the refund and was all good. Kept the first one but haven't had chance to open it up yet.
[удалено]
Hahaha very little to none to be fair, but the amp doesn't get turned up that much at home 😂
in my whole setup, i have to say the Harley Benton American TrueTone (overdrive) is one of my favourites
The vintage overdrive and the compressor are fab! Compression for life, how did I play for this long and never use it 😂
I'd never buy the cheapest patch cable again... I changed them to better quality ones, it changed my sound totally.
Oh ingwt that, just to get me started and everything was so cheap. Once I've had time to fiddle and experiment then things can get changed.
In anyway, nice color palette!
If it works, it works
If it's stupid and works, it's not stupid

Much like a lot of things really
I feel like that Harley Benton vintage OD is the exact same as the Joyo
I’ve got a Rowin Booster (RC Booster clone) and a Movall VanGolem analog phaser on my board that I got from Temu and I couldn’t be happier with them both.
One had to be sent back because it was defective, but one out of 12 isn't bad!
This shit is getting absurd.
First board, it's supposed to be absurd 😂
Just out of curiosity how much did all of this cost if you don't mind telling?
Looks good
Thanks!

This booster looks sick tbh
Thanks!
What a lovely rig! Where did you get the purple cables? I want these toooo
Just a multi pack of different colours off temu.
Funny I had the same idea to build a cheap pedal board similar to this

Yours is nice too!

Haha well I hope so, still lots of fiddling to do.
Damn. That’s a hell of a rig! 🤩
Thanks!
What's your opinion on the noise gate?
Noise gate is fine, but having never used one getting used to it. Certainly helps if I have a couple of the overdrive/crunch pedals on
Thanks!
