The only thing that bugs me about Dano (besides the whole owner shenanigans) is how they can just about copy a pedal and then sell it for $20 without acknowledging what they're doing. I remember that they said that they were gonna "change the pedals" so that they weren't copies, but I doubt that ever happened. :picard:

My nano muff overdrive sounded way better than that. It gave more low end and boosted fuzz wonderfully.

Funny how many people have slammed both Behringer and Danelectro...

My most favorite pedal is my Danelectro Back Talk and my Behringer VD400, while not a boutique $150 analog delay, serves me just as well as my Memory Boy and better than the Carbon Copy that I got rid of.

As for pedals that I wouldn't want...any BS boutique pedal that costs $200, especially when a $75 pedal will do the same thing (read: no Zvex pedals ever. EVER.)

Good to see some people giving reasons apart from just being too good/cool for non-boutique/boutique pedz.

LOL. be cool if the thread said, "Crap pedals you never want: give extensive reasons as to why you think they are crap." LOL.

but seriously. it's alwayz the same reasons: boutiques are "over-priced" and mass-produced sound like crap. never really goes beyond that.

:omg:
