dude, it sounds so good. have you dudes tried it in stereo? try it in stereo. it like, opens up the wormhole to amazing sounds.

i really freaking love this delay. i've been pining over an empress superdelay forever now, and i tried one (not the vintage modified or w/e) at a store the other day and I feel like the cap blows it out of the water. the SD has way more tweakable features, but the different modulation sounds on this baby does just what I need to get my guitar sounding huge, pretty, and not muddy. it's totally perfect for me. no buyer's regret at all. :love:
well i guess, but i just don't know.

I like mine a whole lot. And yet, I am thinking about selling it. I just don't make use of all the things that it can do. Plus, I could replace it with 2-3 other things.

But, it sounds so good.

It sounds great, but I think it is to expensive for my needs, I just need a little delay for when I have My EHX BMS on for bass.. But if I would be a guitarplayer I think I would really dig it!

I finally got mine on tuesday, and I love it. So much fun. It is the first delay I've actually owned, but I played a bunch of them in stores, including the Empress, before I decided on the Strymon and I think I made the right choice.
