Been watching the pgc floating around. Just trying to move some stuff to pick it up before it sells. Hopefully that will work out.

I have the PGC at the end of my effects chain mounted under my board and always on with the compression set at about 10-11. At this level there is no squishing or loss of dynamics, just a sweet boost to the tone running through. I recently added the SBEQ before my delay and after my drives. This pedal is another always on and is such a killer tool on the board. One of my amps doesn't seem to have a lot of range from the tone controls and this pedal has become the tone shaper that works like the tone controls on a really responsive amp. I have tried a half dozen of some of the most sought after clean boosts and none of them added the diversity that this one did. All that said the HB is and essential BJFE :mrgreen: owning one should almost be a condition to calling yourself a BJFE fan.

After thinking it over a bit more, i've already got a great compressor, but I would sort of like to try out the honey bee again. I've got several good dirt pedals listed up on the various forums. Gonna see if I can try and find someone who might trade across for a honey bee. Probably not going to happen, but it would more than likely be an easier process than trying to sell. It's such a horrible market for selling right now. I've had so much frustration with listing things for well below what they should be going for and getting nothing but pm's from people asking if I can do a lower price.

Anyways, hopefully I'll get something worked out sooner rather than later.

Sounds like a good move. The HBOD is truly unique - I've never found anything else like it.

And the market is quite a mess these days. Seems like you either sell super cheap or trade. Very few pedals fetch what they did a few months ago. Most of what I've sold in the recent past I lost quite a bit on. :banghead It's definitely made me much pickier about buying and selling these days.

I must confess I recommended the HBOD over the PGC because I could never figure out the PGC. That and the HBOD kicks serious booty. :love10
