Members L_Z_nut Posted May 16, 2008 Members Share Posted May 16, 2008 LOL... good luck with all that guys. I can see them honoring it if it was like maybe $20 below what it should be, but not free. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members MegaTom Posted May 16, 2008 Members Share Posted May 16, 2008 Ordered. is it even a good pedal? Who cares?! If it sucks, it'll surely sell for way more than the $10.60 shipping charge! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members aldridt1 Posted May 16, 2008 Author Members Share Posted May 16, 2008 Not sure how good the pedal is, but it retails at most other sites for $299...... I was looking for prices on a SD tweak fuzz when I stumbled upon it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Crxsh Posted May 16, 2008 Members Share Posted May 16, 2008 The exact source of the name "Bananas at Large" is shrouded in mystery. The original Bananas at Large retail store was started in San Francisco, on Monterey Avenue, by three guitar players: Fred Waxler, Glen Quan and Billy Stapleton. It was 1972, and their specialty was combing the countryside and big city pawn shops for used guitars which they then brought back to their store and sold to visiting rock stars and the emerging collector market. One story from those times said that the name derived from the fact that all three guitarists were fairly wacky, and they roamed 'at large' looking for special buys. More recently we've been told that a number of the founders were sitting around late at night, perhaps in a state of altered consciousness, watching a 'B' movie called "Gorillas at Large". The name suddenly popped out in conversation, and the rest (perhaps) is history. If you don't like or believe either of these two stories, we suggest that you create your own, since this could lead to hours of hilarity and fun. The first Bananas lasted about a year, after which the founders went their separate ways. Fred returned to playing in bands; Glen Quan designed the Badass Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members mike.sartori Posted May 16, 2008 Members Share Posted May 16, 2008 Well, I did it too. I never thought I'd buy a ZVEX pedal, but I was really just waiting for the right price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members tommyld Posted May 16, 2008 Members Share Posted May 16, 2008 I've ordered from Bananas before. No probs. This is obviously a mistake and they're not going to honor it. Did I order one for $0 anyway? Yep! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
