  • Excellent analog delay sound at a reasonable price

  • Pros: Great analog tone, decays break-up nicely, easy to dial in sounds
  • Cons: Very bright LEDs and the modulation doesn't seem to do much
  • Experience: I own it

  • I would definitely buy this product again. I initially bought a used one off Ebay but after a shipping mix up the seller mailed me a new one from Guitar Center.

    Overall the pedal sounds great. I had a Boss DD-2 digital delay before and I always had trouble figuring out how to best integrate a delay a sound into my overall tone. But with an analog delay the repeat notes dissipate and muddle much nice and it's easy to add a little slap back into just about anything.

    You can also crank it up a bit to get that Floyd tone which is pretty much dead-on for all you Run Like Hell fans. Plus you can crank the Regen and Delay knobs to get some sick spacey sounds.

    It's hard to hear the modulation effect - I think you need to open the pedal up and tweak the factory settings to get more modulation.

    Highly recommended.
