Looks like the same story with Penny Pedals. All seem to be bringing $250-400 now, too. :cry:

They laid off everyone who had ever had anything to do with it - hundreds of years of collective experience (seriously, after nearly a decade I was still the new guy). Watch that space, I guess.
Some chatter today that zombie Digitech and DOD have been canceling and refunding orders, though maybe (don’t count on it) some orders to retailers are supposed to be fulfilled. Maybe the endgame. Maybe a step towards someone else getting the brands and hopefully the IP and putting it to good use.
new development, apparently: https://guitar.com/news/industry-news/d ... t-guitars/

not sure what this might mean for those still hoping to score a non-oop-inflated price on one of digitech/dod's latest line - but maybe Cortek/Cort is more interested in actually interested in doing something/anything with the brands than Samsung was - i mean, presumably they paid something specifically for it and it wasn't just a throw-in as part of a deal where the focus was elsewhere.... :idk:

from the quote in the article tho it doesn't seem like Tom Cram, for one, recommends holding your breath or anything :snax:

also, how lolworthy is this new trend of quoting "gear page users" journo style in these gear "articles" :lol:

"Gigging player" is such a funny term when you start to peel the onion. I love all the justification via gigs is the most laughable thing of all time...as if a painter can only paint if their work is for sale or a dancer can only dance for a crowd. Artists art...that's what makes them artists...gigs don't make you an artist.

Damn! I have never tried their modular gear (or anyone else's really) but the Geiger Counter and Utility Parametric EQ have been in heavy use.
