It's a classic player. Got it in a trade. The short scale just feels so much better in my hands and the tone range is perfect for what I need especially with the switches

Last year, I had money for a new guitar. Had it picked out for weeks after months of going back and forth...

Instead I bought pedals last minute then a $50 squier bullet. No regrets.

I ended up selling most of my pedals to buy my bass. Then I started replacing the pedals. Now I have it ALL :excellent:

I've had my eye on this one for over a year! I've got a full board right now but I'm always tempted to buy just to try

Yeah, I hear ya. Buying secondhand pedals is a great way to buy-to-try, because they typically hold their used-market value.
In the best case scenario, the price spikes due to buzz and demand and you get some tangible return on the investment in yourself.

I've flipped numerous pedals that didn't mesh with my rig or taste for whatever reason, with the sale price being approx +/- $10-20, coming out slightly ahead more often than not.
Losses do occur but they are modest, and the knowledge and wisdom that comes with the experience is among the highest bang-for-the-buck $20 lessons I can think of.
It's almost like pedal rental...with no late fees :thumb:


Shifting gears:
After owning the CD for many years, I finally got my hands on the vinyl of Slint - Spiderland :joy:

+1 on buying second hand, since I started doing that I've rarely made any considerable losses
also, Spiderland was the first vinyl I ever bought :thumb: incredible album!

Incoming:
Boss BF-2

Still on the wait list for the HEXE Revolver II, got a bit over half the money saved (providing the exchange rate doesnt screw with me right before I have to pay).
GASing so hard for a synth though, but I have a pretty big student payment coming soon, so...
