Just had a look at their forum- like
EVERYONE there uses a Strobostomp! It's almost scary.
I'd say pathetic.
I've had more than one argument with the people over there about their elitism and ridiculous recommendations - everyone there seems to just recommend what gear they have to anyone, regardless of the suitability - almost like they need to justify the (excessive) expense.
Two choice examples:
"What's a reasonably priced stage pedal tuner?"
Strobostomp
Strobostomp
Strobostomp
Mike: "STFU - A Korg DT10 or a Boss TU2 is a REASONABLY PRICED TUNER"
Cue: massive argument about percentage accuracy. Personally I can't use a strobe tuner in a well lit room - on stage - FUCK THAT.
and...
"How's the Boss OD-3? Is it a good pedal?"
Buy a Klon
Buy a Timmy
Buy a Zendrive.
it's a shame because there is also a lot of knowledge on the boards, they're just twats in the main - if you have a mainstream pedal on your board like the DD20 as opposed to an EchoCzar or a Memory Lane people tend to ignore you.
