Re: The ultimate list of cheap copies of great pedals thread!

I don't know if the master list is still being edited, but I picked up a TC Electronic Magus Pro a little while back and it's a Rat clone with three modes (fat, standard, and Turbo). I really like it a lot and it was $70, I think? Not super cheap, but I think it's pretty inexpensive for offering thr...

Re: NGD: '96 MIK Epiphone Sorrento

Glad you found this, I believe I bought that casino and it is a beauty! There is definitely so,e thing great with the 90’s Korean Epi’s. Yep, it's your good hands now. I saw that you made some pretty cool mods to it, too. My experience with the Sorrento has made me reconsider Epiphone stuff lately ...

NGD: '96 MIK Epiphone Sorrento

I've gone back and forth regretting selling my Casino years ago to another Shortscaler, but I had to sell something to buy something, so away it went. The Casino Coupe I had a few years ago didn't really scratch that itch for whatever reason and I always kinda preferred the look of the Sorrento to t...

Re: All your gear, ever.

I have rather long lists of have/sold. Kind of embarrassed about it as it shows a lot of money spent over the years chasing sounds (tonez!), indecision, and flakiness and I'm a hack to boot. I mainly played synths for most of my life and the list reflects that but I've primarily been screwing aroun...

Re: NAD x2 - Vox Pathfinder 15 and Epiphone Valve Jr

Congrats on the steal for the Pathfinder. I still have a 15r and love it. I don't understand why Vox discontinued it but kept the 10.

I'd be very wary of a Juno-106 these days. Those voice chips can be really iffy. I bought one for around $600 that was supposedly 100% functional about 7 years ago. Unfortunately, one of the voice chips went out and there was something weird with the filter and the sound would distort randomly at ti...

I have the Scarlett 2i4 and only use it for a couple of things but I really like mine. Prior to that, I had a Personus Firebox that lasted me for years.

Bought one new a few weeks ago for $95 from Proaudiostar, who I'd heard some bad things about in terms of shipping delays, but mine got here within a week. It's a lot fun and an insanely good deal for that price. I don't know if they still have it, but Prymaxe was blowing out the Digitech Obscura de...

Not particularly on stuff like Boss because it always sells. Besides that there aren't many music shops left. Our best bet is second hand. That sucks. I don't always get discounts but I do sometimes when I ask, especially if it's a place I've bought from previously like Sweetwater, Sam Ash, or Musi...

I was kind of hoping that it would have a toggle for a DC-3 setting (but then again, that's a digital pedal, so that wouldn't make any sense). Here's hoping they do a BF-2w with an HF-2 setting. I have my CE-2w on the CE-1 setting at all times. As for pricing, do UK/European dealers not ever make de...

The last several pedals I've bought have all been Boss--BF-2, DF-2, and BD-2. Already had an OD-3, RV-6, CE-2w, and NS-2. I could easily go all Boss...except for including a Rat. Love my madebymike Rat.
