Sometimes, a demo just grabs you.
Sometimes, you wanna support maverick designers doing something niche but with great design, execution and value.
Sometimes, you realise you really are just a pedal addict that can't be helped

There's pictures of the pcb,it's ace looking triangle shape. One sides thu hole the other is SMD. I'll be taking it apart when it arrives.

I hate eBay.
I don't yet own a Moogerfooger :(
I'd like the clusterfuck or delay one day

So this arrived today, seems it will be quite interesting and useful.
the build and engineering is pretty damn impressive

and it is absolutely a unique device! exciting to try and get this on my current recordings.

If it makes you happy then who cares eh  ;)

If you are into the Moog/ more synthy stuff, I own one of these, and it is great:

Jeez! those are nice sounding :)

I've got a similar disease than yours....but with the vintage unit....must be the corksniffer in me....i guess...

I'm always hunting Musitronics, Ross, EHX, Colorsound stuff......

I do enjoy that disease  ;D

The weirder the pedal the more desirable for me for some reason  :D

I agree about EHX, Colorsound etc. Most of the vintage stuff is vastly overpriced in the UK though.

Yep... I was tempted as well I have to say  :).

One of those 'always on', tone sweetening, can't live without it, pedals I imagine  ;)

Earthquaker Device makes badass stuff...i also dig TWA in the newer companies.....

But those Crushsound are indeed really interesting.... 8)

Amusingly it can actually be useable... Just Nick's demo is much more thorough (which is why I think he's about the best pedal reviewer on the net) and gives you an idea of other things it can do. But yeah, it's madder than a box of frogs.

It and the Neunaber WET are the only two commercial pedals I have at the moment (sold all the others!) and I can't see me parting with either.

Rainbow Machine is on my to-get list for quite some time...It's just...awesome :D I mean if Omar Rodriguez Lopez can make it's Magic work on a pretty radio friendly song than so can you.

Looking at that demo from PGS, I LOVE that Reverend guitar. Haven't found a similar model on their site I think. Though I have seen it on a few other videos as well. Just an awesome looking guitar loaded with just the right features, WANT
