Are boutique pedals over?

[giovanni]

I find that the Fender American Deluxe series from 2012 or so was the best I tried in a long time. They are not hard to find used on Reverb but then you can’t try it before you buy which is not ideal.

Also how did this thread end up turning into a discussion about guitars we like?

Because boutique pedals are over?

It’s like all these old men I see when I got to the dump each week; they all have their big, brand new trucks. Why? They can hardly climb up into them, and the only trash they have is a single shopping bag full. You don’t need a truck for that…but you NEED a truck…

ahem

ahem

Don’t worry, I’m talking about REALLY old men…you know, like in their 60’s…

Besides, you can handle it, I’ve seen the mower drone footage…

Boutique guitars, on the other hand…

I suppose a partscaster is technically a boutique guitar. There's loads of those being built because fenders with decent specs are stoopid money now.

Oh well..that IS old huh?

I usually drag 14’ dump trailer to the dump. Hydraulics are cool!

But yeah, I do frequently have to scrape Mini Coopers from my tire grooves.

@fig doesn't actually dump anything when he goes to the dump. He just likes to go there pulling his dump trailer to show off the hydrolics. Once he gets there he turns round and drives home crushing as many small hatchbacks as possible. That's called Wednesday

I thought you were going to say that Fig takes his trailer empty to the dump and then comes back with some select treasures in tow.

I have a talkbox and I doubt anyone cares.

I care. we are now talkbox brothers.

Dammit that would have been much better. Well you lose some, you lose some.

Well, that's two of you. I think I am too old to be your talkbox brother, more like that fun uncle who encourages you to do monetarily ill-advised things in the name of "art".

Don’t forget that mick Jagger and Rod Stewart have kids who are both in their 50s and kids that are like toddlers. We could be a pair of talkbox step-brothers of extremely disturbing talkbox parentage

Very true, and I almost went there, but I wasn't trying to suggest you or I were the product of an "extremely disturbing" parentage situation. That would be rude.

Say, do we go to the same dump?…

Well, keep an eye out for a blue Yaris…it’s Japanese Mini, essentially…

Real men let their trucks rust away in the front yard...

Where I want to move, the only vehicle I'll be needing is an electric golf cart to take me to......okay then just a bike to ride the beach.
