I bought mine from Andy. It's in New York right now (on its way to me from Italy!). I'd love to see some pics of everyone's Model G's! I'll post a pic of mine ASAP!

I also have one of the black ones but mine has a bit of gold metal flake in the clear coat I think.

This and my DRD are my 2 favorite pedals and have been for some time now. I ride the edge of breakup gigging with them and will usually kick one one at the beginning of a show and just leave it for the whole evening. Which one just depends on what kind of mood I'm in. I used the EGDM in the same way and never should have sold that one. :banghead

Piece of Art! Sad to see it go, but I was never able to bond well with the Model G, it wasn't my kind of tone. I always tried to convince myself that it was, but it just didn't suit me at all. mam8dg, i hope you will enjoy it much more =)

So excited to play that beast! :love10

Thanks for the wishes Aaron (and for the e-mail regarding the background of the pedal--I love when a pedal has a unique history like that).
