They're generally priced at at least around $100 usually.So, yeah, not $22.

Re: The $22 pedal thread
I haven't tried one. So, I can't confirm how well it'll work for that purpose.
He also suggested the Fromel Velvet Vice. I did pick one of those up and it's nice. It doesn't get quite as extreme as I'd like though.
EHX White Finger was another one he recommended. Haven't tried that one either.

Re: The $22 pedal thread
Pedals I got for around $22 ($20 plus tax in both instances) from GC, used:
Ibanez DE-7
DOD FX86b Death Metal original version, mint, with battery cover, box and everything
Instant killer pedalboard right there. Unfortunately, I didn't keep either.

Good deals on ILF: too many to list, just ask!

Nah JK, you can probably find that deal again in a few months. I'm biased cause DEATH METAL is my favorite distortion pedal. That said, again, that is an awesome deal.
Ever read youtube comments on classic synth videos? A guy will say he sold his Roland SH-101 for $200 or something and people will attack him like he is literally Pol Pot or something. Didn't mean to do that here

I'd take off the foam though and maybe glue something less flakey down. I'd also rip out the diodes to make it a gnarly fuzzer.

Re: The $22 pedal thread
Want one of these eventually. One of the awesome things about eurorack drums is finding the right distortions to use on each drum sound, and I have always loved having pedals with cab sim for home recording. Currently loving the one in the Digitech Grunge. As with all of those Digitech dirt pedals that have a separate "mixer" output, that is a fixed cab sim that stays active whether the pedal's dirt is on or off.Chankgeez wrote:Ha, I've heard those Arion compressors are really bad.![]()
I like Yamaha pedals. That Yamaha looks totally whipped.
Somebody should offer The Mothership $22 for this:

Re: The $22 pedal thread
My all time greatest pedal scores: one time I stopped at a garage sale in an affluent san diego beach neighborhood. The guy selling stuff had an old boss ce-2 and a fulltone supa trem on a table full of other knick knacks. I asked how much he wanted for them and he goes "eh 20 bucks a piece". I could have been a good dude and told him they were worth more but I figured get if just wants to clear this junk out of his million dollar home, who am I to stand in the way of the free market? So I bought them and drove away laughing like Snidely Whiplash.
good dealings here:

Jack sold me his Ibanez AF2 Flanger for 22 bucks plus 7 for shipping last night. He might have been drunk. I'm not sure. I mean, it was a work/school night...hahaha
