I'd like to see a run on the Digitech RP 200's and higher I have a couple of them in that family.

JHS did a video on the Bad Monkey, a pedal that PhilX had talked about for years.

The next thing you know it’s the new Kkon, sort of.


Listings on reverb

Well....I wonder if anyone is actually BUYING these pedals now that they're listed at like $700 and up. It seems to me like it's more of a meme if you will, like comment-bombing or something and then seeing if anyone is actually dumb enough to buy one at that price, then having a big laugh over it.

What would really be something is if the prices of Klon Cantuars starts to come dramatically down.

When it comes to women there are only 2 types of men: men who enjoy talking about women and men who enjoy talking to women.

Likewise there are only two types of guitar players; players who enjoy talking about guitars & gear, and the "shut up and play yer guitar" type.

Are all the other pedals in the video that sounded exactly like the BM, and by extension, sounded exactly like the Klon skyrocketing in ask price now too?

Pedal prices went past stupid long ago.

If a person can't get it done with these and be happy I'd suggest more practicing.

If it wasn't for most of them still being produced they would probably have been on Reverb for a grand a piece since 2018 :D

Get it done - sure. Be happy - that's a whole other ball of wax.

Me personally - I hate BOSS's dirt boxes. Be it boost, overdrive, distortion, etc. I feel like there are a lot better sounding options out there. Some mass produced, a lot of boutique, etc. BOSS's actual "effects" sound great. Modulation, delay, reverb, compression, EQ, tuner, etc. But I would NOT be happy using BOSS dirt under any circumstance. I could make it work in a pinch but I wouldn't enjoy it.

Even tho everyone says this is BS, you all will hang onto your BMs “just in case”.

I could go on and on about how numerous musicians have rocked arenas and stadiums with inexpensive gear like Boss that were blue collar prices but nope.....

If something makes someone happy then so it is.

I only use pedals that are made with virgin leprechaun pubes for solder and jacks made from unicorn rectums.

Anything else just doesn't have tone.
