Cheap Analog Delay

Guitarists in general are mostly gear hounds. We love new gear whether it's a new guitar, amp, or stomp-box. Some of us are complete gear snobs and will not even consider anything that isn't top of the line or boutique. Some of us simply look at what the best tool for the job is.  I'm not judging here, i'm just stating facts.

I recently stumbled upon a budget friendly analog delay on Ebay that I simply couldn't pass up.  Now I own several delays from a Roland SDE1000 rack unit to a Zoom multi effect, and my favorite, the TC electronics flashback.  While I didn't need this delay I felt compelled to buy it based on the price and the very diminutive size.

This analog delay from Mosky Audio was less than $30 on ebay, but how does it sound. You decide.

Got gas?

America lives on fossil fuels.  While we are all leaning towards hybrids and fuel efficient cars, back in Detroit's heyday the gasoline was the the liquid that fueled our travels. 

Times have changed and gas stations now have multiples of pumps, mini marts, and even fast food restaurants built in. These one stop shops may service our needs but they lack the style that the gas stations of yesteryear had.

I am fortunate that I have been able to document some vintage gas stations that, while no longer in service,

still exist in one form or another.  These buildings remind us of the days of the family road trip, Route 66, roadside attractions, and in general, a simpler way of life.
