After BOSS announced the DS-1W, a lot more people than usual watched my SG-1 demo video.
I believe that Pepe, I truly do.
I saw the comments everywhere over the net, and maybe the "people's will" prevails and Boss ultimately releases the SG-1W, proving me wrong, again.
But I dare to say that if that happens, some people will always say the pedal is fantastic, sure, but
the real utility of this effect will be exposed to those who never had one and the same rejection the original endured, the new one will too.
I wonder, if it wasn't a success in the late 70's, early 80's, when that kind of effect was a novelty, what will make it a success today? Only the hype?
Many want to have a waza craft version
just because they can't afford the original, not because they actually like and have use to that effect.
People will buy it.
I will buy it! ( The_Doc will buy it!!!
)
But how many will be sold? Five thousand... Ten thousand? Those are considered fail numbers in the past, imagine today.
I know I'm looking like a devil's advocate here, but my reasons are rational, not emotional, and a SG-1 re-edition makes no sence to me.
There are a lot of SG-1 clones out there, if one really likes the effect, and they are cheaper.
