Does anyone know where I can get these pedals from? And how much they tend to sell for?

Doc, For values, nothing beats eBay and/or your local craigslist. I gotta say, after perusing the man's website though, I am vastly underwhelmed. Beside the unpardonable sin of not being able to properly formulate and execute HTML code, everyone of his pages has what I call a "logic leak". That's analogous to 'if you can't dazzle them with brilliance........'. Sorry, but after coming off of Chris's "Myths" thread, I'm not ready to let such BS go by unremarked. He's done some good work over the years, no doubt, but either he's unable to express himself, or he has a bad memory of how things work, or else he's just plain looking to fill white space on a page. None of those inspire confidence in my, such that I'd rush out to buy any of his gear. Just one jerk's opinion, that's all. ;D HTH sumgai

I found a link to gak.co.uk on the (extremely poor) Pete Cornish website, who I shall check out.

Doc, Ah yes, the old "I'm in a different country" trick. I see it all now. We often talk about craigslist here in the NutzHouse, but how many members here are aware that it are now international in scope? For Wales, I'd try: cardiff.craigslist.org/Note that the main page for any city or region gives the entire list of where you can reach with craigslist. That's a truly incredible achievement, IMO. Sadly, in Cardiff at this time, I see only a rather expensive used piano. Obviously your area has not yet embraced craigslist like we have in most parts of America. My locality (Seattle) usually sports 250-300 new listings a day under musical intruments! You might also try some of the other cities listed for the British Isles. HTH sumgai

Thanks Sumgai, but I live 200 miles from Cardiff but I'll check out other cities, or even other countries.

Doc, Again, it's more to get an idea of something's worth......... it answers the question 'what value do others place upon some given object?'. The closer to your home locality, the better you can plan your budget. Good luck! sumgai
