Hi all,

I don't know if I'm being picky here but I would like an opinion from the basschat community please.

I bought an EBS Multicomp off eBay. The photo was a stock photo on the advert, the first photo below.

What I actually received is the second photo below.

Should I contact the seller? Apart from the aesthetics, are they the same pedal? It seems I have been sent an older model of the pedal but the picture advertised is a newer model of the pedal. It seems the model advertised has true bypass but the one I received hasn't.

Can anyone help me with some facts about these 2 pedals and some opinions on what I should do please?

Thanks

They look very similar and I suspect the photo was an honest mistake by the seller. How does the price that you paid compare to the retail price? If I was in your position, I'd probably not complain about it, but that's just me.

I'd stick with it too. Difference between buffered and true bypass is incredibly minor and unnoticable in most cases, especially for a decent buffered bypass, which the EBS undoubtedly should be.

Also... [url="http://www.ovnilab.com/reviews/multicomp.shtml"]http://www.ovnilab.c...multicomp.shtml[/url] :

"[color=#000000][font=verdana, sans-serif][size=4]The buffered bypass is [/size][/font][/color][u]just as good[/u][color=#000000][font=verdana, sans-serif][size=4] as the true bypass.[/size][/font][/color]"

:gas:

EDIT: It also depends on how you will use it. If you leave it on all the time, like I do with a compressor pedal, why would you need a true bypass?! :lol:

If you *need* a true bypass switch, then return it... but chances are you don't, and other than that it's just the same great compressor.
I like the Multicomp a lot, I have two in fact! :lol: (not used at the same time!). I use it as an -always on- pedal, so the type of bypass really means nothing to me.
