Hi guys
I just received my Digitech Bad Monkey Overdrive.

Brand New Condition.
Box - Manuals & all paperwork.
Made in USA, they have moved their production to China I think.

It even came with a coffee stain on the bottom of the box, the coffee was free I think.
And the postage was within reason.

Unfortunately it's a little bit too late in the evening, to Spank The Bad Monkey,
(I think there's a pun in there somewhere)
I will just have to wait till tomorrow evening, when I get home from work.

Hi StratoSphere!!
My wife's an on call nurse & she worked a all night shift, last night, which means she went to bed extra early this evening.

For me, that means, I have to wait another night, before I can spank the Bad Monkey.
But tommorow!!!!

This pedal is supposed to be made with surface mount components?
I'll take it apart & have a look, BUT after I play it...
It gets some great reviews

Hi guys
The GAS is really bad here tonight.
I just won another old Boss CE-2 Chorus, it was a BIN, I stumbled over it just as it was posted,
So I GAS'ed it.

It looks in very good condition, not too many signs of paint chips.
Some can be pretty bad, like the one I won last week.

It currently lives in Sunny Queensland Austalia.
Adoption papers are being transfered by Ebay, so it can come & live happily with us here in Melboure.
I hope they ship it with some warmer clothing, as it's a bit cooler down here.

I can now finally do a 3 channel - Boss CE-2 Tri Chorus mix.

Hi lost_in_sound
It's a good feeling, when you purchase a new pedal & it just all comes together.

I sometimes buy stuff untested, just so I can go home & be surprised, as to what sounds I can coax out of them?

When I buy stuff on internet I don't try it before. Well, I've done once, When I bought a 79' MXR Distortion + I went to a store.. But that pedal were so old and did not sound anything like the one I got. Today I got a NF-1 and I've never tried it.

No I missed it, that was Sunday sometime, I was doing other things.
Do you know the person that won it?

But last night. I did win a BIN CE-2 Green Label almost no marks - Ebay & the seller are doing the adoption papers, so I might see it Friday, or Monday next week.
It's the second one I managed to find, over the past fortnight.
Still haven't had a chance to play the Bad Monkey.

What about you did you buy anything?

Finally got an SD-2! I think I'm gonna slow down on the buying for a while. At least I tell myself that. My parents think I'm crazy or something. Hahaha.
