    Hopefully, the market will be doing the same.

    Have you ever seen that documentary of the finally that tried to only consume items not made in China? It's an eye opener for sure.

    Maybe one positive from Covids will be at least a continental self reliance move -to avoid being reliant on most everything in it's finished form from across an ocean -however I do not think it should be at the micro or local level -the population is too big -the environment cannot withstand every county producing their own industrial level waste for every consumers product -we have to have a model of efficiency which requires regionalization -and honestly Americans wouldn't pay for it anyways.

        I had a Behringer "Tube Monster 999" pedal-

        with a no-name 12ax7 inside.

        I replaced the tube with a NOS Phillips 5751- that was twice the price of the Behringer pedal

        And it sounded awesome with bass guitar. It roared!

        But the pots were plastic- everything just... dirt cheap. :/

        I hope i find the pedal, and retrieve the tube.
        If somethings important- send a PM. I might be offline for long periods. Rock on!!!

          We're sorry-this item is unavailable.



          That would be a good reason to not buy it.

            Sketchy business practices, weird anti-semitic ownership, product looks and sounds cheap until it breaks. There are like a billion better options.

              Believe me when I say that some of the most amazing music in history was made on equipment that's not as good as what you own right now.

                I can only say that every Behringer product I've used has been a disappointment.

                Though I still believe there might be some worth the money, I'm not betting any of mine on it.

                  Actually, if every country would make their share of industrial waste, and production, it would be better for environment as it would be dealt properly.

                  It's far too easy to ignore pollution, waste and moral issues of ultra cheap labor when it all happens other side of the world.

                      Maybe you misread -I was talking at the "COUNTY" level -not country -definitely agree at the regional and country level.

                      My point is, we have to both distribute at the regional level of industrialization enough to take advantage of efficiencies of scale and cost and to limit the micro localization enough to mitigate impact to the environment by having the more efficient less redundant community to community model.

                        Maybe what we need is a good central planning committee.

                          Oh. Thought it was misspelling.

                          Anyway... Sorry for derailment.
