    list is $240US. freakin' ripoff. look for it to retail about about $200. which is still a ripoff.

    big waste of money.

    If you want that same tone. you can try to build one yourself or these three have it down really well.

    the reason to buy from these guys, passion, excellence they are fucking awesome at what they do and they live to mod pedals. Also send them an e-mail and they reply the same day. Not some call center person, Robert, Mike, or David respectively.

    Prices are actually quite reasonable when you compare what you really get. this new ri 808 is nowhere near the value you get from these guys. That's one reason so many pro's use them.

    Maxon actually built the originals for Ibanez.

    Keeley and Analog Mike also make Cap changes inorder to give the volume knob a lot more play and improve the clarity of the pedal. The maxons are great though too. They were also behind the TS-9 series also an excellent pedal with its own sound and look.

    The Maxon TS 808 goes for around $120 and the TS-9 goes for the aformentioned $140

    Just to answer the original question:

    I don't think it's on sale yet, watch for it in April or so. But I agree pretty much with all the other posts...
