I'm guessing it'll be closer to Randy's Revenge in price than any of the other Fairfields.

Yeah, my guess would be north of $200, but you never know.

I also have an Accountant, and it does give a really nice character to my tone. If you're looking for a super clean comp in a small size, I'd try the Xotic first. The Accountant can get real durty.

All analog with modulation, etc...

As Chank said, it will probably be near Randy's price.

Randy's pricing is what I'm expecting, hoping for a pre-order discount. Gonna get that new Fairfield tee shipped with this delay as well. Only thing holding me back on shirt order is the $16 shipping ugh. Maybe he can just ship it all tgthr for a flat rate.

I'm hoping that's a given.

On the weekend, I ordered the new t-shirt with Randy's white t-shirt. :joy:

Wasn't the RR pre-order price like $225?

I hope it is a little cheaper than the Randy. I would imagine the Randy is a more intensive/complicated build than the new delay. Plus I would bet in the end, he will sell many more delays than Randys.

These are very good points.

Yeah, but look at the analogue delay market. There is nothing out there with a feature set like this. I can't see it being a whole lot cheaper than Randy. A little cheaper, maybe. 275? Under 250 would surprise me.

I'd like to know where they fit the Accountant in the circuit. If it's only in the wet path, then I'm guessing it's the comp portion of the compander used in many analog delays. If it affects dry as well, then maybe I can slot this pedal into the front of my chain instead of having a dedicated compressor.

New Barbershop mock up, set for release sometime after the delay.
