Re: Strymon El Capistan
I had an "oh crap!" moment myself when I realized they weren't taking payment through paypal, since I had most of my El Cap money in PP from a recent sale. They recently updated their website, and with the change they were no longer taking paypal. I didn't realize that when I went to place my order. Good thing I have a wonderful wife who allowed me to bum the money from our Ikea fund.

I've got an emergency card from my dad, he lets me use it to bum money while it transfers back to my checking account. PHEW :D

BAH! Will not have the money until Friday. They will most likely be gone by then.
SOMEBODY HATE THEIRS AND SELL IT TO ME.
I would totally make out with you in return. But, if you aren't a hot lady, I can't promise that I would put a whole lot into it.

If I had a lot of spare dough, I'd buy a spare for you..

Re: Strymon El Capistan
I've got my credit card info entered on the order page at Strymon, but I just can't decide whether or not to pull the trigger. I've got room on my card for it but I really, really shouldn't do it. If I do it I'll have to make some sacrifices over the next month, but I think it will be worth it. Should I or shouldn't I?

I dunno, they'll be making more in the future. Is the month or two of sacrifices worth it for a new pedal? I used to say yes, but now I don't. It's one thing if its a one-off or limited run, but I think Strymon will be around for a good long while...

I am waiting for Eric's review before I pull the trigger on this. It still sounds so awesome.

Good advice, thanks. Too bad I got an itchy trigger finger and went for it already. In all honesty, the only real sacrifices I'll probably have to make is buying cheap beer for the next while and maybe skip out the next time my buddies go to the pub. So I think I made the right decision, I've never actually owned a delay and I've been craving one for some time now, just couldn't decide which one to buy before this.
