theosd Posted January 17, 2008 Posted January 17, 2008 (edited) Wollop! I'm sure most of you know already what this is/does (very, almost identically, similar functionality to the sansamp thingy people rave about, but underrated by comparison - I personally believe the sansamp is a little overrated in actual fact, this is much more useful if you're after distortion, as it has a separate channel for't), but for those who don't: GOOGLE!! It's in good condition for 3 years of constant use. I'm selling because I'm looking to diversify my effects and I find I get a really sweet tubey crunch with my EHX Black finger, rendering this redundant (I've only ever really used it for the wicked distortion!) This is a really handy little box of tricks, as any online review will likely tell you. So let's say trades for effects or small powerful(ish) combos or maybe a cabinet. I bought this new when it was brand new for £200, so I'd like to ask £80 plus shipping for this if people are interested in a cash purchase: I'll be looking at trades first though, I'm not desperate for the money, just a new sound! I do have a feedback thread if you want to check my compatability with your stuff/money Thanks. Theo.

cockbongo Posted January 17, 2008 Posted January 17, 2008 Really interested in this - for 3 years of constant use what kind of condition is it in?

The battery door works fine but one of the "wings" has come off (in fact I prefer it off, means you don't have to be so precise putting the door back on "around" the battery. It's got a brand new duracell battery in it. I will take some pics tonight (pedal is currently at rehearsal room) while I wait for some replies; bear in mind the 'phantom power' button has come off but MXR kindly sent me a replacement which is in my drawer now so that'll be put on.

JJTee Posted January 19, 2008 Posted January 19, 2008 (edited) Great pedal - wouldn't ever be without mine. My programmable Sansamp BDDI sits gathering dust... Have a free bump. Edited January 19, 2008 by JJTee
stinson Posted January 19, 2008 Posted January 19, 2008 Yup, free bump on me. Has come in useful on so many occasions. The battery holder bit snapped on mine too and does not effect it at all. Thats a bargain price.
Kev Posted January 19, 2008 Posted January 19, 2008 the pedal is awesome, why anyone would choose the basic sansamp over it il never understand (unless your one of those sad unfortunate people who cant standdd to buy pedals from well known brands) great di and a great distortion
theosd Posted January 20, 2008 Author Posted January 20, 2008 Still open to offers! Looking for some interesting trades pedal or cab wise!!
