Fruit…. Blueberries????
Blueberries are one of my favorites – especially after the birds have eaten them and crapped on my car. But… I don’t think they allow berries around this forum.
KrinorMemberQuote:i think that there should be a “buy/sell/trade” thread eventually, it would be a great addition, but like someone else said, the forum is too young. and it would create a whole lot of spam. and people might join the forum just to try and scam you or something.Amen. End of thread. Let’s talk about fruit instead.
KrinorMemberIt will. It will provide you with fruity loops and strange geometric shapes will form in mid air.
KrinorMemberDon’t know about the clockwork, but I could get you an orange.
KrinorMemberQuote:a little exampleto use part of your post:
“I think we should be allowed to offer EHX pedals for sale as long as it is just private sales between forum members and not commercial sales in larger numbers.”
Firstly I don’t know who you are, you could be the owner of a guitar shop, trying to shift used gear that you have, where better to sell ehx stuff than to the fans on the forum….now I know that’s unlikely, but you could be ok?
Now we’ll call you ‘shop A’
‘Shop B’ gets wind of what you are doing, he has several EHX pedals in his shop so he puts them on here too as ‘good as new only used once’ even though they are brand new items, he offers them for $15 less than most shops.
‘Shop C’ gets wind of this, he is unhappy and feels that ‘Shop B’ is using the forum to undercut him in price, so contacts EHX to complain…..
Oh my…So much for being devoted.
KrinorMemberVery good points Electro-Melx…
Scam, spam whatever… I’m just a musician and I can’t say I really care. It’s just the internet for gods sake! It’s just a digital communication surrogate. Get back to your guitars!
KrinorMemberHi all.
I’m sorry, I got a bit hot headed… It happens sometimes.
Here’s the thing:
I happen to own a fabulous XO Deluxe Memory Man. But I also just aquired an AMAZING Older DMM moded by Howard Davis. So I don’t need the little XO anymore, and since this version is not available in the USA I thought out of devotion to the spirit of EHX and also out of kindness, that I’d offer one happy american the chance to buy this pedal from me. I don’t NEED to sell it, but I don’t need to own it either so there you are. If the above is considered commercial spam, then this forum is not for me.
FWIW the pedal is no longer for sale as I have now sold it locally.
Since most other forums I use have “for sale/trade” sections I thought it would be nice to have one here as well, and when I checked the Lounge, I noticed a few posts down that someone else was selling something, and so I thought it was okay, but I also thought I’d be a good forum member and create a thread that others could use later as well.
Like probably 99% of the rest of you I have not read the terms of use for this or any other forums I have ever used. I simply click “I agree”. I admit it. I am a sinner.
So, for what it is worth, I appologize for breaking the forum rules but feel strongly that this forum should AT LEAST have a “Vintage/Used ELECTRO HARMONIX gear for sale” section.
I agree that we should all of course buy as many NEW EHX pedals as possible to keep this fabulous company in business, but this forum is also a place where owners and users of vintage EHX gear come to talk and I think we should be allowed to offer EHX pedals for sale as long as it is just private sales between forum members and not commercial sales in larger numbers. Take a look at the For Sale section over at Aron’s stompbox forum. It works like a dream.
Does anyone agree with me ?
KrinorMemberQuote:For now, if you still want to hear the old demo’sgo on archive.org (The internet archive) and search ehx.com and go around 2006 and you will be able to hear the demo’s.
Perfect! Yes that’s good enough for me. Thanks.
KrinorMemberYeah, I read that thread. I sure hope we can get them back somehow, someday. I really enjoyed them.
KrinorMemberGreat! I wasn’t aware of that. Thanks.
KrinorMemberOh… Wow… !!!
KrinorMemberMan this thread is so hi-jacked…
I just played around with this diode to ground setup on a tube booster the other day. Very nice. It softens things up a bit more than compressing it maybe. Smoother distortion. Take a look at the Muff Fuzz for comparison. It’s almost like to LPB’s cascaded with a pair of diodes to ground right before the volume pot.
KrinorMemberI guess those diodes makes it a little bit compressed too ? Nice idea. I’ll try that tonight.
KrinorMemberOriginal Panasonic MN’s in mine.
KrinorMemberThe single compander chip is not the same as in the big dmm as far as I can tell… The big dmm uses dual op amps instead doesn’t it ? I’ve taken some gut shots if anyone is interested…
