I don't think anyone doubts SD stompboxes. The compressors, analog delay, chorus, & tremolo are really top condenders in their respective categories. They're just so expensive.

I think they're priced just about right for me. I've gotten to a stage where I don't add or change pedals lightly, and when I do it's because I want a substantial improvement in sound or functionality. The difference between one pedal and another might be the price of a Lego set, which frankly pales compared to the difference between a good pedal and a great one.

Strymon, Keeley, Diamond, & Duncan make exceptional effects processors; and a lot of people are buying them. I just find them to be expensive. My combo amp was a tiny fraction of the price of one of these pedals. I'm against this trend of super expensive pedals these days. They're cool devices, but they won't make me sound better.

Pedals like the Vapor Trail and 805 are only $150. Catalina only a little more than $225, that's not much money

How much was the DM-2, DD-2 OR RV-2 at introduction adjusted to 2016 dollars?
 
Re: What is your favorite Seymour Duncan pedal?

I have 5 of these...so I guess this is my favorite.

I only have the Lava Box & Tweak Fuzz . . . and really like 'em both ! !

BOTH Units excel in slower paced Stoner-like Rock . . . think Fu Manchu.

I may have to look into these. I was talking to Bob Balch just recently about his sound on the Godzilla album.
 
Re: What is your favorite Seymour Duncan pedal?

Still got my eye on the Lava box at the pawn shop. A few other commitments, like safety equipment for my job needs to be dealt with first. Hopefully it's still there when I get reimbursed for the work expenses.

Price is pretty reasonable. $57CAN.
