Why don’t you just get them, they are not that hard to find.
I have two of them.

Re: Holy Grails -Bucket List - The Effects Edition
I just can't justify the current asking prices...they are usually £400+ on ebay or Reverb (depending on how high on crack the seller is )...
I can see myself getting one at £250-£300...it's just not worth more to me.

What Yannis says but also, I just think I'd rather put the money towards a killer acoustic.

At least no one here is chasing the perfect Fuzz Face or Tone Bender and spending $500+ for every boutique variation they can hoard.

Re: Holy Grails -Bucket List - The Effects Edition
I'd love a Moog midi murf, but there is no way I could ever justify owning one unless somehow they reissued it for cheap. Vintage fender reverb unit would make me super happy, I would love being able to just play on someone else's

Re: Holy Grails -Bucket List - The Effects Edition
I must've been through about 40 fuzz pedals before I realized that the Lovetone Big Cheese could do 95% of what I needed. Sure, a real one isn't too cheap, but ONE pedal covering pretty much everything for me. It really made sense. At this point, I will generally run that, Zvex Super Hard On, and a bubble font Big Muff that I built and that is it as far as gain/ boost goes. I still have a few other things lying around, but I don't feel the need to split hairs with fuzzboxes anymore. But I hoard enough other ridiculous shit instead Hehe.fuzzjunkie wrote: ↑Sun Apr 14, 2019 6:51 amAt least no one here is chasing the perfect Fuzz Face or Tone Bender and spending $500+ for every boutique variation they can hoard.

Re: Holy Grails -Bucket List - The Effects Edition
I've always been about sound and function and have managed to find everything I need. The one sound that I couldn't recreate with a new pedal was the Polychorus and I found a big box. At this point, it might be nice to find a Univox Super Fuzz but I can get the same sound out of the Super Unpleasant Companion with more dirt, convenience and fine tuning. Unless I'm offered a Sans-Amp Classic for virtually nothing, I can't see myself trading or buying another guitar pedal unless one breaks.

Re: Holy Grails -Bucket List - The Effects Edition
I sort of collect old DOD pedals, because they are quite cheap and come in hideous colors, like Stabilo yellow or old chewing gum pink. But 2 of them are getting very difficult to find at a correct price : the Meatbox and the Swell.
You can find them from time to time put close to 200eur which is way too much for pedals that (honestly) sound like crap.

Re: Holy Grails -Bucket List - The Effects Edition
The only thing I really would love to own would be an original MXR Blue Box. But I have a Rowland S. Howard signature pedal (RSH-02) and am therefore not actively on the hunt for one.
