An excellent pad with an even more excellent response! Some might be a bit "turned off" by its construction and design in the picture, but live, after they see it and touch it, they realize it's VERY SOLID, stays in place, is silent, and has an EXCELLENT response (it all depends on the pedal you hit it with anyway), plus the potentiometer on it makes adjusting the gain much easier, and the large jack output helps a sound engineer if you happen to use it live!
