What are the most expensive pedals?

Post by Pepe »

Excuse me if that has been discussed earlier, but I couldn't find a similar thread so far.

Sometimes I see prices that make a mint and boxed BOSS VB-2 look like a dirt cheap unit in comparison. For example the old Keio (that's the old name of KORG = Keio ORGan) "Synthesizer Traveler" pedal crosses the 1,000 $ border easily when it pops up at eBay:

What are the most insane price tags on used or new effects pedals tha you've seen so far? :eek:

I'd be very surprised if this doesn't end up as a Klon thread. :snax: :poke:

original burns buzzaround are pretty outrageous. glad i found a nice pigdog spectrafuzz clone so i can keep my original safe and secure. there is an original Elka Dizzytone for 4,500$ on reverb, its on sale from 5,000$.
model 2 binson echorec are not inexpensive anymore, that's probably the most expensive pedal i've bought in awhile.
