SORTED Bogner La Grange

Jonathanthomas83

Moving this due to discussion about pedal now I bought it.

NO LONGER NEEDED

Bought from Peach for £169 which is a bargain.

FYI. Peach are doing them at £169 at the moment but I know it's not for long and the price is due to go up. 

Jonathanthomas83

Thanks @handsomerik , I noticed that and wanted to quickly check before taking the plunge...will likely buy new today :-)

Great sounding pedal, hopefully they've sorted out the sketchy paint work on them now.

Jonathanthomas83

@timmysoft yeah, I heard about that, what was the issue?

Just generally poor finish, chips around the screws, blemishes in the top finish, which is really unacceptable on a £200 pedal. I sent mine back.

Jonathanthomas83

@timmysoft indeed, very poor indeed. Will have to keep an eye out for that. Thanks. What do you use now?

I don't really use pedals anymore, bought a nice Mesa Stiletto combo that covers all my drive needs! 

Jonathanthomas83

@timmysoft Nice!! :-)

Corvus

The paint on mine's got a small nick but fine otherwise. Great pedal though, lots of variation in it on the basic theme.

Jonathanthomas83

@Corvus that's great to know, thanks! I'm looking forward to getting mine!

Corvus

Hope you like it! There's so many bits to fiddle with it takes ages to try all the combos, and then it takes things stacked into it well so even more to explore

Jonathanthomas83

Awesome @Corvus I try to buy versatile pedals, and I think this one fits the bill nicely!

Corvus

Hi @Jonathanthomas83 I'd be interested what you make of it, thought there'd be more guys trying them on here.

Jonathanthomas83

@Corvus It arrived on Monday and I can't wait. I'll let you know how I get on, mate!

simonbeckwith

Also interested to hear about this @Jonathanthomas83 ;

@simonbeckwith and @Corvus Ive had 45 minutes with my brand new La Grange tonight, and I must say that I'm mightily impressed. It's incredibly versatile, can go from saggy to tight, clean/low gain plexi to GNR rock to tight JCM borderline metal territory. Really, really like it. I can't wait to play a bit louder while the neighbours are out tomorrow!

if you're on the edge, buy from Peach and grab a bargain!

Corvus

That's about it I reckon, happy NPD

Watched this thread and GAS got me after doing some research. Got mine today 2 and loving the range of low to high classic gains. Thanks for the heads up @johnathanthomas83.

simonbeckwith

Awesome!

Jonathanthomas83

@Mike77 very cool, mate! I couldn't resist it and glad I took the plunge now. Let's see how long the honeymoon period lasts! :-)
