Members awd83 Posted July 6, 2010 Members Share Posted July 6, 2010 Thinking about getting one of these: http://www.guitarcenter.com/DeltaLab-DGFX1-Guitar-Multi-Effects-Pedal-105017107-i1437795.gcor http://www.guitarcenter.com/DigiTech-RP90-Guitar-Multi-Effects-Pedal-104653852-i1375342.gc Which one do you guys think make the better sounds? I'm mostly looking for classic rock and some blues. I played around with one of the digitechs at GC today, but I didn't have enough time to really even figure out how to use it, and the DeltaLab display wouldn't work. Also thinking about the lower end Digitech RP 55 or whatever - I don't think I need too many presets or effects. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members NHLfan2010 Posted July 6, 2010 Members Share Posted July 6, 2010 I've got the RP70 (same as the 90 but with out the volume/wah pedal) and I will say it was great for me for a while, though a lot of the distortions on it are very noisy. I guess as long as you accept the fact that your not getting anything top of the line you'll be fine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members steve_man Posted July 6, 2010 Members Share Posted July 6, 2010 of the two...I'd go Digitech...but if you check out Guitar Center's used section on their website, you could probably get a good deal on a higher-end pedal setup... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What would you suggest? I'm not looking to gig, just a foot switchable setup with some customizable effects. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members steve_man Posted July 6, 2010 Members Share Posted July 6, 2010 I bought a Vox Tonelab LE from the GC used section...very easy to use, has a tube in the preamp, and can be had for a decent price. Really, just try out several all-in-one pedals and find your favorite...then watch the used market... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members cbh5150 Posted July 7, 2010 Members Share Posted July 7, 2010 What would you suggest?I'm not looking to gig, just a foot switchable setup with some customizable effects. The newer RPs are fantastic; I would look for a used RP250 or RP255 (the **5 series has a built-in looper); should be able to find one for less than $100.

Members awd83 Posted July 7, 2010 Author Members Share Posted July 7, 2010 so it doesn't sound like anyone is recommending the DeltaLab, huh? $100 is my max limit, and I had thought of some used pedals, but how reliable are used digital effects? I've seen used RP90's for about $60, so that's at the top of my list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Bro Blue Posted July 7, 2010 Members Share Posted July 7, 2010 I have used a lot of DigiTech stuff and have been happy with 99% of it. I have an RP1000 that really sounds great. I have never played the Delta stuff, so I really can't comment on it. Based on my experience with the DigiTech stuff I would recommend them. Plus, you can always move up to the more expensive DT stuff and it won't be quite so new to you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members amadylan Posted July 7, 2010 Members Share Posted July 7, 2010 I have 3 of them...the RP200, 350, and now the 255. All solid. Of them the 350 had the best presets. They have usb connectivity and you can download user presets from the Digitech site. They represent a good value and are currently on sale at MF and M123.

Members rchiav Posted July 7, 2010 Members Share Posted July 7, 2010 You can get the RP255 used at Musicians Friend for $100 on the buttonhttp://guitars.musiciansfriend.com/product/DigiTech-RP255-Guitar-MultiEffects-Pedal?sku=580863 Or see if they'll give you 20% off a new one and that would be $100.

Well, I can get it from Music123 for $107, shipped, so I'm thinking about doing that, an early birthday present to myself! I couldn't pass up the usb recording capability, along with looper and wah pedal combo. I don't think there could be a better value out there.
