I've just bought a boss DM3 and a BF-2. People talk about classics like these going for silly money but in actual fact both of them together have cost about £100. They are easy to fix if they break, have the perfect boss design and sound great ( well the DM3 has not arrived yet, but the clips and my memory suggest they sound good). You can get a CE2 MIJ for less than £100 which is still not a lot for a decent sounding pedal even if the odd chancer asks double.
So I'm just wondering what classic pedals are worth hunting out that still offer good value for money. Either pedals where the boutique version costs more or just sleeper pedals that were great in their day but have missed the vintage bandwagon.
Comments
Their trem is already collectable. A lot of their pedals got sold off cheap when they stopped production and they had a few quite distinctive products.
Now, anyone interested in my Toadworks delay? Bidding starts at £500... :bz

I'd have said certain Fuzzes with NOS trannies will go up as stocks of these are already diminishing I.e nkt275 and 213's but I'm just guessing there.
Also seems to be what certain famous guitarists are playing at the time
The originals will soar regardless, but it'd be a shame to have that piece of rock history buried.
And, it's not wankery- so many good judges are wowed by them for it to be that.

Personally unless someone works out how he does it I think Deano's Amp Booster Attenuator Boxes are going to go for a few thousands when he stops making them. The circuit is his own creation so unless someone does some serious reverse engineer these things could end up in short supply and highly priced.
