I have the PolyTune which appears to be the same enclosure. I'm sure it's a micro surface mount PCB, but I've had no problems at all. As beefy as anything I've ever used.

I have a Hall of Fame on order!

On the back, my PolyTune says: "Manufactured in Thailand".

There you go...

I have some high-end Nikon camera bodies and lenses made in Thailand and they are very well made and reliable. They compare favorably to my Japanese Nikon pro stuff.

Plus, Thailand has much better working conditions in the electronics industry than China to my knowledge.

If the TC line was made in Europe, the new pedals would not be ~150 USD!!

@nitro: you would be surprised how many of the things you already own are made in China. But if you feel this way, ok - don't buy it. My Flashback is made in Thailand.

You my friend only see half the truth. I don't like to buy foreign. But the reality is much deeper than you realize. You are criticizing japanese car manufacturers when in fact they have done more good than american counterparts. I can't get into it without getting into trouble, but you are slightly off. That said buy a strymon american made.

I'm enjoying my Earthquaker Devices Ghost Echo; a luscious spring tank sim for $165 USD. Made by Americans in Cleveland, OH, also in America .

Plenty of good USA made stuff out there. Just not with a million features, a robust build and a sub $200 price.

These are designed in Denmark and made in Thailand. If these were made in Denmark, we wouldn't like the price tag here in the US.

An alternative is to pay $300 for a boutique reverb pedal but for me, I can't justify that. So I am definitely going to check this one out.

Buying only American made will mean on missing out on pedals like BJFE or the Hotcake even........ Just saying.
