Should I Sell My Vintage Deluxe Memory Man?

[bugzaney]

I know it's fantastic and all, but i dont use it nearly enough and have multiple delays and want to get others.

Wat do?

[sonidero]

Chuck it and get something you want like an El Cap...

[D.o.S.]

Yes. To Me. For ILFBRO pricing.

[Ghost Hip]

What other delays do you have? What do you want out of a delay?

[rfurtkamp]

If it's one you like, and you don't desperately need the money, keep it.

The old ones don't all sound the same.

Some are quite awful.

[technicoloraudio]

yes. its an awesome box don't get me wrong, but if you are debating, go ahead and do it. you can always get another one.
i used to think that if i sold my rhodes, by the time that i was able to buy another one, they would have all disappeared and i would be so fucked.
i'm on my third rhodes, its the best one i've had and i got it the cheapest.
the kind of coin that selling yer DMM will bring you opens up a lot of options. unless you spend all the money on booze.

I ditched my big box dmm for an el cap over 6 months ago and I don't have any regrets (except for the fact that they are probably going to be worth mega $$$ in the future)

[coldbrightsunlight]

If you're thinking about it, that generally means you may as well. It's not like they're really that scarce, although rfurtkamp has a point about variable tone.

What are the other delays you have?

If you want to get others, what features are you looking for?

[bugzaney]

Ive got a digitech timebender and a solidgold fx electroman. The catalinbread echorec seems pretty fun. I just wanna get delays that offer different sounds. Wackiness is good too.

Yall convinced me. Im gonna let her go.

[excane]

I'd let it go and look into the DMB Lunar Echo for modulated wackiness. Love that lil guy.

Subdecay Echobox is a great choice too, has modulation and a trails on/off feature.

If you can make decent money with your job and easily could afford another ones, keep it. But I agree with hollowhero. The only thing I concerned when selling my big box years ago was the future value. While I loved it (but kinda bored), but still the venture must be continued. Life's too short to stick with one delay & od pedals. Now, enjoy your research!
