The Electra Forums

So I took a buncha pedals in on a trade a while back,all but a few I have info on. The one I need info on is this one: Aria DD-X20 Digital Delay,does all kinds of funkiness-especially in series with my Electra phaser pedal Anyway,all I've found is an Aria DD-X10 on ebay at $295! Is that the going rate for these or is the seller completely out of line? Here's some pics:

Cro & Magnon Fretted Instruments of St. Louis, Missouri ?

But I thought they were well known for their vast knowledge and in-depth analysis of all vintage MIJ effects and pedals.

Bummer dude...


**Edit -- Just noticed that Cro is wearing a watch. Why, exactly??

The watch is so he can hear you more clearly.

Looks to me like they might hear a lot of what's goin on.

For the most part Aria pedals have not been a hit yet with the Vintage pedal crowd. I would be surprised to see one going much over $100.

I agree from what I can find,you can't really use ebay for pricing unless it's in the completed sections-not a big pedal fan myself,the prices some of these command astound me

Vintage Price Guide doesn't have the X20, but puts the DD-X10 at $65-$75

Almost certainly that pedal was made by Maxon - If it were branded Maxon it would probably get about $200. $295 for a DD-X10 is probably WAY optimistic/delusional.

If I read your pedal correctly, that thing will do a full 2 seconds of delay - a few pedals will do that. Boss dd5 will do 2secs, dd7 will do a whopping 3.2 secs - regardless, 2 seconds delay is a crazy long time. I'm not sure how useful it'd be but I bet it's fun. If it sounds good with your other pedals why not keep it? Shoot - 600ms with my mxr carbon copy puts me in a time warp.

Got a Boss DD-3 here which can be set up to 800 milliseconds and I thought that was halfway to forever.

2 full seconds would allow you to step out for a bite with Nigel while his Paul is sustaining...
