Hey guys.  Just picked myself up one of these from Ebay:

http://www.moenpedals.com/effects/mo-pd_pretty_dolly.html

Pretty good so far.  It has a really nice "organic" decay to the delay, suits my Orange (and Nailbombs) really well.  Not massive in terms of functionality, and only 500ms max of delay, but a really cool tone.

Mark.

The soundclip sounds pretty cool. I missed the tape saturation and warble that I hear in my RE-20.

Was it expensive?

Not really, £25 I think.  I was bidding on that an a BiYang delay, and was outbid on the Chinese pedal (put in a stupidly low bid...).  But the Moen sounds fine, for the price - the feedback is kinda muffled, which sounds really interesting.  I'm used to using DigiTech and Boss digital delays, so it's nice to hear something like this.

Yeah, good for what it is.

Just checked, and I think that Moen is Chinese too...

Looks like a good find!

When I first saw the specs I thought, only 500 mS delay? But after thinking about it, I never use more than 1/10 of that on the rare occasions that I even use delay at all.

I only use echo for rockabilly slap back, spacey Sleepwalk echo and (very rarely) some U2-ish echo. Sometimes some other stuff. It's all short intervals anyway. For anything longer, you might as well use a looper.
