I really enjoy it. Don’t use the modulation and haven’t scratched the surface of the rubberneck and self oscillating features yet.

rubberneck is AMAZING and is basically a steal at the used prices they go for
fx loops in delays are magical. ran a megalith in there and shit was R A U N C H Y ~

Just here to say I think the reverb on the Dispatch Master is fucking fantastic. Plenty of others do that huge thing but I dunno... something unique in the DM. Plus the delay's plenty good.

And in Europe generally around 120€ for V1.

I just flip through Amazon maybe once a week and set the filter to "Newest Arrivals" to see what's on the way.
It's kind of a cluster though, because there are a bunch of retailers who don't sell pedals that just put their clothes or cell phone cases or toys into whatever category and it gets clogged with garbage.
But sometimes...

The DOD Rubberneck is a fricken steal right now, I love mine. I needed an analog sounding delay with the momentary regen switch that also had modulation and sounds as inspiring as a DBA Echo Dream/Deluxe Memory Man. It checks all the boxes on top of other features I never would have asked for but might use in the future.

I know you already ordered the Rubberneck, but if that doesn't work out I would recommend trying to check out an Avalanche Run. You can get them for about $200 used and they do a lot more than the DM.
Stereo, tap tempo with ratios, self oscillation, expression control of any parameter, reverse and swell delay, and tone control over repeats. For a while I was using mine with an expression control to adjust the delay mix, so I could use it as just a reverb and swell in echo. It's a really nice sounding and easy to use pedal. Just hold out for a deal on Reverb or BST.

Yeah, I would've been all over it, if it wasn't $300 used. Cause that's actually considered a good deal for an AR in this part of the world

I've been surprised with the low price of the rubberneck for a while. So many features and they seem to sound good too! Hope you enjoy it.

Yeah, they're a steal at the moment. Untill now it was impossible to find all of my nit picky requirements and pet peeves in one analog delay pedal (or most of 'em anyway)...
Some of the main reasons why I flipped delay pedals in the past:
- Short delay time.
- No/little control over the modulation. "It is what it is, all or nothing, deal with it".
- Shitty modulaiton, no matter how you tweak it, and no fx loop to feed the repeats your own choice of effect.
- Repeats too dirty/clean.
- Repeats too dark to cut through, or too clear to sound musical and warm.
- No tap tempo.
- $$$
So yeah, probably needless to repeat...I'm more than psyched to get all of that for less than 120Euro
My Ibanez ES-2 comes really close, sounds great imo, and I love the oscillation switch. But the tap tempo is far from accurate, and the whole pedal feels like it wouldn't survive a couple years of light abuse. Had to return the first one cuase it completely died on me after just two weeks, they send me a new one. From a distance the knobs and fader and side panels may make the pedal look like it was made in the late '60s in North Carolina...But up close it's obvious that it's a modern chinese cheapo :/
