Another thread on the topic...

JHS makes the Bad Monkey expensive

No, he proved that guitarists are idiots. He made the other pedals sound like a Bad Monkey - the BMs settings don't change throughout the video. JHS didn't push the prices up. Dumbass guitarists did. I can agree with that. As I mentioned, he made the pedals produce the same sound. One sound...

Oh, I thought this was a thread about Nutz, a UK rock band in the '70s.

LOL... indeed.
i just looked up prices for Norlin-era Gibson SG II guitars
and they are inching up towards $2.5K USD... madness!

What's even more mad is that the oddball Gibsons like the Sonex are being listed at $1500.

Someone put a Bad Monkey on the local craigslist last night for $10,000. Lol.

The whole vintage craze took a while but it seems the lower grade old stuff that was never a fine vintage has become "vintage vintage"?
If not fine vintage.

I find myself offending folks now and then when I share some info on old stuff because I am old, hafta remember some folks adore their old low point of quality era gear.

Also confusing since we have a parallel universe where Squier is better tha FCS and Joyo is better that price gouging small shop USA pedals.

Where does Josh fluffing up the reps of cheap unwanted pedals fit into the market?
Next question: Does Josh know not what he does?

No know no know!

Buy low, sell high. Time to sell, sell, sell!

And what a great band they were too. Regular band at the Marquee club.

Welp my Klon pedal hit $900 or more, heh...

Ah, The Old Grey Whistle Test..... great programme when "Whispering" Bob Harris was its host.
Thanks for posting this

Some folk are deluded! Old doesn't equal vintage or good for that matter. The Bad Monkey is a £40 pedal all day long.

Bloody influencers, talk up some **** about a pedal or a piece if gear and watch the price rise!

Recently I bought a Waza HM2 which is fantastic. Did I want to give some ebay Dick Turppin £200 for some 30 year old battered old one with components that probably have drifted far from their original values, course not. It's just madness!

Rock Stars are no longer important to push gear. They might sell a guitar or a pedal. The youtubers have more sway, longer sales runs, and influence a wider audience -- to sell any and all gear.

Josh knows what he is doing. I'm sure he's already developed a new pedal to hit the Bad Monkey market as the fever runs up, by him, to offer a $100 solution to the Bad Monkeys hitting $500 by then.

Or he has a multi-switching pedal that includes Klon, Bad Monkey, and the dozen other pedals in that space, including his own prior clone. He has a pedal of all the Tube Screamers and one of all the Big Muff Pies already.

It's a South Sea bubble. Get rich get out.

If you have an old crappy pedal that you want to sell on Reverb, the title must include the word "vintage" and "tone".
