    Talk me out of buying this

    Strange turn of events. I had saved one of the cheaper pedals by adding it to my Amazon cart. Last night I got a notification that it has shipped and will be here today. Seems as though my wife saw it in the cart and just bought it. Kind of nice. Hopefully it scratches the itch.

    I been looking for a pitch shifter with a momentary switch.... Found one on Amazon for $145 which is still expensive, but not AS . I'll spend some more time looking around before I commit.

    Whew! I would say that none of my tones are beautiful. Gross, sick and vile are kind of my aim...

    Yes... I've done this a few times.... And it's hard to offload expensive niche pedals!

    Talk me out of buying this

    I texted this to one of my old friends, he said you're worse than a girl with a shoe thang.... I told him good job, calling me a girl is also a good tactic.... I haven't bought one yet.
