Am i stupid?

telerocker5150 · March 23rd, 2008, 08:56 PM

i think ive gone off the deep end. ive considered selling my old boss dm2 for an mxr carbon copy and my keeley blues driver for a Visual sound route 808.

hamish5178 · March 23rd, 2008, 08:59 PM

I don't know anything about the dm2, or the CC (though I may be getting one soon) but I don't think the Route 808 would really compare with the quality of your Keeley.

tazzboy · March 23rd, 2008, 09:06 PM

Yeah I think you are going off the deep end on selling your DM-2 Of course you could get a lot money out of it.

telerocker5150 · March 23rd, 2008, 09:08 PM

i know and im not much of a delay person. the carbon copy would suit me fine. and im a tube screamer kinda guy not so much on the bd2 .

garytelecastor · March 23rd, 2008, 09:15 PM

Yes...yes you are.

telerocker5150 · March 23rd, 2008, 09:25 PM

i never use delay except for once in a blue moon and the CC would cover it plus its true bypass.

I started the MXR CC delay thread after I bought mine. That being said, I'm not getting rid of my Boss DM-2 or 3. I think the MXR sounds great and I'm way happy with it, but I still love my old delays and they are getting very hard to find anymore - thus the reason for finding a new delay.

I look at it like this: the old pedals are better than pets. They keep going up in value, don't eat or poop - so it's really a win win!

Lemme put it this way - if I didn't have a DM-3, I'd be buying a CC.

telerocker5150 · March 24th, 2008, 02:08 PM

i get yalls drift. im just not a major delay user so i think the dm2 will be on ebay VERY soon. and my board will have a carbon copy.

markinlondon · March 24th, 2008, 06:27 PM

I'd add the 808 to the Blues Driver. They're complimentary, not mutually exclusive. I use a BD2 and a Bad Monkey together sometimes, the BM adds the mid boost for solos over the BD's rhythm OD.

My tastes change back and forth so much, I never sell anything. I'd end up buying the same thing again, or kicking myself around the block...

daveswenson · March 27th, 2008, 12:00 PM

You should definitely get rid of the Keeley. Can I have it? ;)

telerocker5150 · March 28th, 2008, 07:54 PM

ok. ive came back to my senses. im keeping both pedals. just know that i will keep the MXR in mind if my dm2 bites the dust. other than that THEYRE STAYIN!

tazzboy · March 28th, 2008, 11:09 PM

Glad you did. You would have been kicking yourself if you sold the DM-2.

ramseybella · March 29th, 2008, 12:16 AM

I have to say I agree with you, Yes you are stupid!
Now just buy the Carbon copy later when the price goes down.
Or when people start to say they suck and start dumping them for the new flavor of the month!
