HELL YESssss! Curious on price. I'm sure this is made possible in part by the guys at FSB.

What's all that SMD business going on, on the second Red PCB... I wonder if because what appears to be the switch PCB has only 2 lugs that it's infact electronic switching, maybe this thing will have delay trails...
Probably using the Cool Audio V3205 like everyone else in these new ones though unless he hoarded a stash of MN3005 like Mike Matthews... if he did, these units will be very expensive i'd imagine, but I bet a few of the guys that spent $1000 dollars or whatever will start kicking themselves now.

I thought Jeorge Tripps said he had no interest in reissuing it?

Eh, it'll turn out to be the carbon copy without modulation.

He's now a slave to dunlop.

Hey, first post!
Any word on price by any chance?

Details are sparse at the moment...only other thing I've heard mentioned is that they are sourcing their own BBD chips, whatever that means.

I saw Mr. Huge post that pic on FSB. I was like "say whaaaaaa?!?!"
I'm interested in how much the RI is going to go for. I'll probably just end up buying a stack of those boards when they get the group order together at FSB and build my own.
I wonder if this news will affect the price on the originals at all.

Doesn't really look all that interesting, though those are some fancy innards going on. If it sounds good, it'll be worth it.

It doesn't
look interesting to me because that's the way it appears to me. I know that the originals are expensive because they supposedly have amazing sound for a short delay, but they are also pretty rare (reminds me of a recently released pedal...). Again, if the reissue sounds good it will probably be worth the price they make it.

meh. There are SO many 3-knob analog delays out on the market. What sets this one apart other than the mythical brand name? There is no way that 90% of people could pass a blind ear test to tell two of them apart. For a delay to impress me at this point, its all about the number of crazy options it has (like an FX loop, or a momentary oscillation switch, or some other crazy shit).
