I can't believe how ridiculous this is.

It's ridiculous. So ridiculous that we've just overvalued the meaning of the word ridiculous by using it in this context.

Ridiculous.

at least it's not a tubescreamer clone.

edit:

also LOL at this trem pedal that only lets you choose one of 12 preset speeds, and gives you no indication of which one is selected:

and this $160 pedal that turns your mic off:

At least it has a A/B/Y box in there as well. And switches that feels good*. For $170.

*These are Street Smart Features, but certainly not Book Smart Features

Apparently only one Youtuber EVER has bought one of the range. Good thing there's no POT's to adjust. Also, good thing there's no bypass, so if you want to go unity to highest boost mode, you need to press the footswitch 3 times.

Seriously, what IDIOT's are designing this shit??

They're part of an elaborate joke.

I refuse to believe otherwise.

i mean, i guess if you play a lot of BALLS TO THE WALL 15 MINUTE SETS or are timing something or have more money than sense. . . i dunno, there's possibly a use for this, but i can't see it being worth more than $20, all in.
