Yeah, well that's one I'm happy to have been punked on, though, just in case, I did make sure I was playing my guitar on a full dose of Toledo Window box at 6pm, so, if the apocalypse came, I'd go out in style! :joker



Funny Steve.

While I think this might be true for the short while, I actually think the bearfoot ones will contribute to higher value on the originals. Donner is a bit of a pedal icon in his own rights and more people getting to hear what bjfe designs are all about is only going to increase the GAS fires out there.

To a certain extent there are not enough bjfe out there to tip the public awareness into frenzy but it will happen.

I hope you are right since it already hurts to have to sell. :boohoo I have had a love/hate relationship with the DRD, so I dont feel that bad. I do prefer the sound of the Cornish G-2, but it doesn't have the dynamics of the DRD which I do miss. But, I have the HBOD, MHvT and EGDM which are still doing it for me.

I did find a compressor I like better than the PGC and the new FGC, so it is possible I will make due with selling the FGC and holding on to my BJFE until the BearFoot mania turns into BJFE gas.

I also thought Donner said there were two pedals coming out. Wonder what the second one is? Still pulling for the MG, MR & SYOD 1.5. :music

i agree -- Donner has a very good name, and his pedals are VERY collectible in japan and elsewhere. his pedalbuilding skills are well known, and he is one of the most talented and famous pedal FINISHERS in the world. DONNERBOX 4 ever :pedallove
