Pedal turnaround

iseverynamegone

Sold my DLS on here on the 20th ....realised what a terrible mistake I made.......bought another on here today .......

Anyone been quicker than that?

Amateur.

Some have bought a replacement before the old one has left their ownership.

I accidentally sold an EHX Germanium Muff twice on the same day (on Ebay and Gumtree), so had to order another one to send to the ebay buyer. This then encountered delays with stock etc so the ebay seller was very understanding and just asked for the refund. When this one did eventually turn up, I kept it as I regretted selling. So I am indeed in the camp that mike_l refers to...gotta love the way the mind works (or rather doesn't in these cases)

I normally last about a week. So far this year, I've gone through 6 Aqua Puss's. I'm a halfwit.

6!! The only pedal that I missed enough to get another was a Boss BD-2. But I then got the chance to get a Keeley BD-2, so I look a lot less silly.

I knew you guys would put my fukwittery into perspective. Thanks :-)

Yep, definitely sold/ traded stuff that I haven't even played. The only pedal that has literally never been off my board since I got it is my timeline

DrJazzTap

Bought and sold

• two metal zones (i was young)
  
• three big muffs (smashing pumpkins)
  
• two electro harmonix hot tubes
• Three orignal Q trons (still want one now)
  
• Three Tubescreamers (the best one got away)
• Sold my wampler ecstasy pedal and bought it back off the guy I sold it to.

It's so easily done. I know my Aqua Puss scenario sounds stupid, but humour me...
I started with a DD3 and an AP (1). I used the AP for slapback the DD3 for longer delays. Thought I could cover both with the DD3 so sold the AP. Missed the analogue feel so bought another (2). Decided I liked the darker sounds, but could do with tap, so sold the DD3 and AP and bought an RE20. RE20 was ace, but I didn't like the slap, so bought another AP (3). Started using another AP (4). Two AP's made me feel stupid, though. Sold both when I got an El Cap (could do it all, right?). Grew to hate the El Cap and was skint, so sold it for monies and got another AP (5). Got a Skreddy Echo, sold the AP. Got another Skreddy Echo, and again felt vulgar. Have just sold both and bought another AP last week. Six. Halfwit.


It really is the nuts for slapback, though.

As I pack up my third EHX Small Stone Nano to post off to its new owner, I was a little temped to order another one as I'm missing it!

This is the only pedal I've had a "problem" with and keep repeating myself. The sound is 95% there and sounds lovely and goopy, but a tiny volume drop, loss of base tone when engaged, and I swear it always makes my board sound shitter despite being true bypass, just p's me off in the end.

I'm pretty good on turnaround except with modulation effects.

In the space of one month I went through a tremolo, phaser and 2 Flangers.

I buy then get GAS guilt
