Woohoo! Got me an original Expandora!
« on: January 08, 2010, 09:45:41 PM »
My contact in the US came through, and the pedal is virtually mint!  Works perfectly, sounds great, and it only cost me £60  :o

Result....

A quick clip - spot the inspiration.....  :roll:  :lol:

nice :D sounds quite bright, and seems to have a fair amount of dirt.

Nice tone before and after the pedal was kicked in Dave. Very Billy G IMO, nice and gritty... I'm thinking I'd like one of those pedals too now! Cheers for that you bugger  :lol:

Bargain indeed! Good going Dave.
I think I hate being indecisive.

The guy I bought it from sold it to me for what he paid for it - $75 - plus $10 for shipping.  A very kind gent of the PRS forum!

With the dip switches etc it's a very versatile pedal.  Very, very nice and I can't understand why it wasn't more popular?
