r4c	Re: ANY good delay pedals? I'll also put my two cents in for the Danecho (for the money). It somewhat pales in comparison to a tube echoplex tho...but what do you want for 50 bucks? I pulled mine apart once, its basically a delay-on-a-chip. One big chip and not much else. It sounds good though. For Analog Delays: I'll put my money on the Roland DC-10,20,30 series. The best sounding analog delays I've EVER heard. Cheap too if you can find them. I'm guessing it's similar to the later space echo series. The Ibanez AD-80 is (IMO) okay...I don't like it in comparison to the above. Some people like the maxon analog delay...I don't know if this is a copy of the AD-80 or the AD-9 or something else. Anyone? For Tape Delays: Not a tough choice. Tube Echoplex wins this one, no contest. For those wanting the sound w/o the noise! and the collectability (and don't want to shell out 1k+!) the new Plex tube echoplex reissue is a good choice.
