I hate brick and mortar because the staff is usually either rude (usually kids texting and ignoring you, not saying hi or thank you) or just annoying you period. I got kicked out of a GNC once because the guy kept asking me if he could help me find something. He asked me like 3 times in 10 minutes. I finally had to tell him to shut the fuck up and leave me alone. It was at this point that I was asked to vacate the premises.

We should all order something if for no other reason than to make him over extend himself. That'll show him.

Ruckus is the shit.
And his Website is shitty. Since the beginning of time. So are his Pedal aesthetics. That is his style.

I like the looks of the redesigned Megalith quite a bit, but yeah his other pedals are definitely lacking in the aesthetic department. I've never owned any Mountainking and you guys are making me think about placing an order too. :lol:

I hate to be that guy but man does Mountainking seem extremely overpriced. Especially after seeing some Megalith gut shots a couple years back (sorry if build quality is better these days) that looked like R2-D2 took a shit into a hammond box...

Still wanna try one tho, of course

It's cool. I'm sure it does seem overpriced. The thing I've realized about Alan pedals is that it doesn't matter what size they come in, they smash your face in no matter what. I actually am one of the few that digs the big box look. I like big enclosures, and wish I had a pedal board that could fit a bunch of them on there. I have yet to try a pedal of his and say "man this wasn't worth it", it's always "this is the craziest/coolest shit I've ever played".

So yea they are pricey, but definitely amazing.

I like the idea of all of us ordering this summer! My birthday is on the 5th of July and I'm hoping to hit him up for a new Decomposer. He didn't make very many of those, and I have not found another pedal that can do what it can do.

Or maybe a custom pedal. :)

Maybe excane can buy you a pedal for your birthday since he owns them all. Let's really stick it to Mountainking.
