I want to try a WIIO because I saw Dylan Carlson playing one but I listen to the Who and Zeppelin recordings these pedals are supposed to reference and I don't get it.

Dudes, Dudes. Please.

These are some literate people we're talkin' about over at Catalinbread. These aren't just some ugly-ass colors in the design of that pedal, they're the colors of Prince Albert's tartan.

Besides, you know what they say about Catalinbread graphics, right? If you don't like the way a Catalinbread pedal looks, just wait a few minutes. The design'll change.

Was not a huge fan of the WIIO or DLS I had, but for some reason the RAH sounds interesting.
Good deals on ILF: too many to list, just ask!

Man, WIIO's aren't popular here at all then, huh? Just looked it up. I really do like the uncompressed nature of the pedal, very amp-like.

They need to demo the RAH? Haven't found any clips.

This! I love my V1. I don't see myself ever getting rid of it. Also really liked the DLS when I had it (Only reason I got rid of it is because I'm a trade whore). The idea of combining the two: :!!!: Plus the price is right. I think Cbread has a winner with this one. The graphics aren't that bad. I feel like they are getting back on track with the last few designs.

Isn't supposed to be argyle like Jimmy's sweater vest? That's what I assumed anyway. But yeah, the price is perfect, I am thinking about picking one up when I get the chance.

I really don't know why they changed their designs. I thought they all looked either acceptable or sweet, but now pretty much all of them look cheap and shitty.

maybe it's that the WIIO demos don't get it...there's one v1 demo that i really liked, but almost all of them just don't sing to me. i really want something to make Pete noises, dammit.

I just got my RAH. Never really liked my WIIO, sold it a couple of weeks ago.This pedal is fantastic. It's what I always wanted my WIIO to sound like. The bass retention and note definition are so fantastic I can't even express it. I run it through a Blackstar 60 watt 2x12 or a Blackstar 5 watt hooked to a 2x12 cab. On both it sounds amazing. I crank the master and lower the gain to almost nothing or crank the gain and turn the master to unity and both are very usable. Responds well to to my guitars volume knob, and cleans up nicely. Can even get a bit fuzzy in the neck position. Haven't had a chance to stack it with any of my other OD or distortion pedals so I don't know about that, but I'm guessing it will work well. If any of you are interested I can let you know.
I'm pretty sure the pedal design is based on the argyle sweater Jimmy Page was wearing at Zep's Royal Albert Hall performance.

Great price too, $135 including shipping.

Sort of interested in the concept but the pedal is fugly. Price ain't bad, though.

Ive never cared for the Catalinbread aesthetic and that is part of the reason I've never owned a Cbread pedal.
