Both of these series are so insanely underrated. If someone put them on a 125B with a 3pdt and a different name they'd have been crazy popular.

My little bear rat sounds 95% as good as any boutique rat I have. Seriously, its freaking great! Best 30$ I've spent on a distortion.

Thats the price you paid used? - I imagine - or you found one new for that price? If the latter: Link?
Used. I don't know why but the Echo Park hype still hasn't reached Europe.

Maybe mine (well, my buddy's actually, though I'm pretty sure he doesn't want it back) is broken...But is it normal that the level control doesn't work like a normal mix/blend control, which DOESNT cut your dry signal as you turn up the reverb level?

It hasn't?? I can't for th life of me find one under 80Euro or so. Been looking high and low, and they usually go for around 90Euro it seems...
Not that that's an outragious price, but in that range there's a lot of better build alternatives out there these days that don't have that clunky enclosure and shitty switch
I do miss my old DL-4s sweep/lo res/swell modes though...

Yuss. I've tried the DE-7, CF-7 and FZ-7. They were all fun. The CF-7 had a lot of clock noise bleed unfortunately, or I'd still have it. The FZ-7 is a cool grindy spitty fuzz, is good at stacking. The DE-7 I used like 10 years ago, but I liked having the echo mode and the long digital delay times in one package. I still want to try the PM7 and the TC7 even though I suspect they'll have clock noise too.

If we're including Ibanez 7 series pedals in this discussion, the Danelectro food series minis are also worth mentioning.

My little bear mammoth clone gets tons of use as a bass fuzz. I got it for somewhere around £5 excluding postage from china as a stand in but it's doing such a good job that its become my main squeeze.

Echo Park, Digiverb and DE-7.
Is this the Guitargeek.com fx-forum in 2006?

I kinda miss that era of pedal message boards. Everyone cared a lot about the Whammy and weird deep cuts from Boss and Digitech, Melt Banana was the bee's knees.

£5? Where did you buy it? Aliexpress or somewhere?
