I'm with you. Looks super cool, I like the demos, I don't know if it's the car graphic or what, but I am reluctant to pull the trigger.
Good deals on ILF: too many to list, just ask!

It always intrigued me, but I can't help but think I'd just play Fu Manchu riffs every time I would play it.

it is finnicky with exp pedals. The sweep is off using an EB and an ep-1, but the m-audio works with a taper adjustment. that aside, it has a nice tone with a lot of range, and even without the exp pedal, the filter switch is great for an instant cocked sound.

good to know - so you are using the m audio exp pedal with it? I think i may build a exp pedal with a 10k linear pot then...how was the sweep off with the Moog?

right now I'm not using an expression, just using the footswitch for the filter, but the m audio is the one I do use when I use the exp out. I can't remember if it was the moog or eb, but one or both of them cut off abruptly and the sweep lagged a bit when ramping back up.

I have been GASing for this pedal too, something always keeps me from pulling the trigger though. One went for just over $100 on sleazebay a couple of weeks ago that I should have bid on, oh well. I already have a muff-ish pedal and I just have a feeling that I'll just end up getting a separate filter anyway.

No lie, when I got a superfuzz for the first time, all I did was play Fu Manchu riffs for days.
