Re: New GC exclusive pedal.....Prime Distortion.
Please tell me those are going to be $30 like the Classic OD's and Classic Distortions were. (calling GC now)
[edit] They're $49.99 and will hit the first GC's on Thursday 5-16-13

Re: New GC exclusive pedal.....Prime Distortion.
Yeah, definitely want to check that out...the Custom Badass '78 Distortion just sounds a bit too scooped for me...that scooped thing just doesn't work well with Fender guitars into Fender amps, it just seems to impede the tone from cutting through in a band situation...but this seems a bit warmer...

Re: New GC exclusive pedal.....Prime Distortion.
I tried one of the overdrives and it was pretty good. I wish I had gotten it when it was $40, instead of $100 at the nearest Guitar Center. I really want one of the SD Lava Boxes first though.

I've been looking to pick up a Distortion III, but I think I have to re-evaluate now. :fingersx:

Re: New GC exclusive pedal.....Prime Distortion.
I'm wondering if it's just a repackaged version of something else, or if it's actually new. We'll find out during the first week it's out.

Wasn't that what the GC classic distortion was? The one in the black box I think it was?

Re: New GC exclusive pedal.....Prime Distortion.
That was my first thought, because I think it was also a Distortion III. I wonder if this is the same or different.
Once a few owners open it up and compare them, we'll hear the real scoop.

These GC specials have all been a repackaging of existing MXR pedals so far. This doesn't sound like anything special to me. @ $50 not necessarily a great deal either if that is the case here. Good, not great

I'm a manager at the Brooklyn store and this is the first I've heard of it. We get our truck in today, so I wouldn't be surprised if it came today.

Don't mean to repeat anyone, but it's just another 3 knob distortion with a red casing. They (GC and/or Dunlop) are just better off dropping the distortion III down in price.
Also, the "finish" around the footswitch is the same as the classic od and distortion, so it just shows where the design comes from.
