MASF KOLLAPS

[Cutlunch]

Anyone seen one / any US retailers.

Anyone have experience with them

Yes, but this should go to General Gear.

Tonefactor is the sole US distro for MASF. It is fairly easy to import from Japan though and they are easier to get a hold of there.

They are ok. It is hard to fit a trem at random speeds in sometimes unless you like to change your playing in the middle or are running a table top/noise/drone kind of setup. It sounds pretty good and it really sticks to the faster speeds with slower speeds coming in at a less frequency. They are kind of fun though, but personally I would rather have a trem with a EXP or CV speed control or env control.

It is a pretty simple pedal. Not much to talk about really.

What Galvar said. Had one, and gave it away to a friend because the random speeds got a bit annoying. I'm pedal-sitting for him right now, and have played it a fair bit. It's definitely a fun pedal, as long as you go with its flow.

I'll check out a MASF pedal some day when they don't cost a university textbook.

Buy them directly from Japan, they're a bit cheaper there. Or wait for an US Endon tour, they usually sell MASF pedals for cheap at their merch table.

At least somebody will buy them when you sell them and they hold some value (usually flip at about 65% or more of US price)...same thing can't be said about my textbooks (and when they did buy them back at the book store it was like sure $5...but I paid $150). Geez, I have a wall of books...
