Banzai Fireball II, Brand New in Box

[Paul S.]

I have a brand new Fireball II that I bought, put on my pedalboard, and decided an hour later that it wasn't for me. There's not a scuff or scratch on it.
I got it for $229 shipped, and am willing to make a deal or maybe even take a trade +- cash if necessary. I am looking for a suitable replacement, like a MI tube Zone or similar.

Thanks,
Paul

You're the 2nd guy today I heard mention the MI Tube Zone.

The other guy got rid of his Hermida Mosferatu & Zen for the Tone Zone.

I went to their site to see what was up & IMHO, nothing there sounded like anything I'd want.

Have you tried one & found them to be fantastic? 'Cause I've heard fantastic things about the Fireball.

What don't you like about it?

Sorry, not trying to bust your chops or anything....just curious:beerchug:

I'd love to try the Fireball out, but I can't swing the dough.

Hey Puck - I pm'd you about it, but the basic reason that it didn't work for me was that I needed the boost to do more for me, as I was hoping to use it for rhthym and leads. Maybe in a one guitar band it would have worked, but I gotta compete with a really bright tele. The distortion itself souned great.

I never did get the chance to go down to Alfonso's place, but I need to.....the 2 pedals keep popping up everywhere & I don't know why.

By all accounts, they're amazing, yet guys keep selling them off??????

One guy told me the Zen was TOO transparent....which I didn't quite understand!:laugh2:

Well, you're never going to find a pedal that suits everyone, but for me the Zen and Mos (and combining the two) give me 3 flavors I love. Add to that my amp's clean and dirty tones, and layering the pedals on those, and it adds up to a pretty versatile rig . I need to get some clips made of these pedals...

Yeah man!!!

The Banzai Fireball & the Cold Fusion sound great too; atleast the clips are right up my alley!
