hello i was wondering if someone could reccomend me a delay pedal. being a student i am skint most of the time as money is needed for the essintals like beer and the possibility of more. anywho just wanted to know your thoughts on a good delsy pedal. its really just going to be used for arsing about with.

also anyone heard of a brand called glx? found them on ebay and just seem to be boss clones. anyone heard or used these. pretty cheap too :P which is always good

Behringer are usually a good punt for decent sounds on a budget- spesh if it's just for home rockin'. GLX look to be just Boss clones (like Behringer), but in better housing. Daphon is also another cheapy brand that look okay, but I've never tried either of the latter, truth be told.

I'd recommend the Ibanez DE7 (digital, does a good analogue sound too, self oscillates) and the Behringer VD400 (analogue, warm, self oscillates too). Or buy both - you need at least two delays.

You can't go wrong with the Behringer VD400 or the DD600 depending on what delay you want.

cold sterile delay that can do metal/clangy like sounds and really nice short/slapback delay :

behringer DD400


warm analog sounding delay that does great (sometimes close to scary) oscillation but isn't really 'that' versatile, just classic sounding no frills:

Carl martin red repeat



both are reasonably priced i think

Ace pedal that does both of the above: Ibanez DE7.

If you're looking to emulate him, then reposting the same content to threads repeatedly is a good start.

He liked the DE-7 babymaking amounts aswell.

Hmmm..

He has a RE20 now as well you know and totally spazzes over it. Cuntbag. Makes me want to sell it. Not really.

Oh Benecol you need to start sucking Shads cock lots too. And post a thread about some druggy you fancy getting kidnapped when all they did was run off. Oh that was a glorious thread. Why wasn't it hall of famed?

The de-7, is a really good cheap delay pedal. It's very analog sounding, and has cool oscillation.

I had one ages ago, and gave it to my friend when I upgraded to the Deluxe Memory Man, don't have either now. :(

That was when jcyphe coined the timeless phrase "wonky bitches".

So many lols.

I don't think I posted in that thread because I cracked up so much everytime I read it. Even when he first posted it. I saw the way it was going.
