Score! WH-1 for $420USD....in Canada....shipped to my door....with no freakin' customs charges.

Sweet!

Other than that, this post has no point to it, I just felt like bragging. :blackeye:

a WH-1 is the very first DiGiTech whammy pedal.

Are they really going for that kind of cash now? If so, I got a hell of a deal!

Like was said above, it's the original Digitech Whammy pedal. It was originally produced by another company under contract or something, and Digitech's never been able to get their "re-issues" to sound right ever since.


Not my board, but it's the big red expression pedal on the far right;

Very cool! The re-issues suck tone and have horrible tracking, which keeps me from buying one.

BTW, I've always wondered, what do you use the Peavey combo for, soundwise??

Yeah, I was going to get a WH-4, but I was always hesitant because they're pretty expensive in Canada, and if I didn't like it I'd be thinking "I wonder if the WH-1 is better?"

This lets me skip a step in the above thought process. Plus, if I don't like it I'll just sell it on Ebay for more than what I paid for it.


As for the Peavey, it's my old main amp back when I was doing strait punk with nothing but a dirt box. These days I plug the computer into the power section and blast backing tracks. It also doubles as a guest amp for when friends are over and occasionally I'll use it for a practice amp (I usually practice unplugged).

It's the guitarist (Niels Hunefelt) in a Dutch band called Any. Their music's pretty good.

Can i just ask how you managed to avoid the customs charges, or was that by luck?

The seller lives in Canada....which is why it's such a bonus....normally they sell for more here than they do in the States.

Off Topic, but I always wonder who needs all those effect pedals on those boards...

Oh ok, was just wondering as if i could ship stuff like an amp from the U.S. to the UK without the customs, i'd be extremly happy!
