so i pulled one out of the dust and grime today, my first or second effects pedal i ever got, this was about 15 years ago from a kid that gave it to me because he wasn't using it and thoguht it was crap at the time (and so did I!) and now its considered a long lost relic that rivals many analog delays of the 80's era liek the Boss DM-2, Ibanez AD-9... etc etc.
I'm talking about the Arion SAD-1 Stereo Analog Delay, nice to find some renewed pleasure and use for it after many years tucked away in storage. weird how alot of Arion units were cheap budget knockoffs of their time and then reach admired status of today, i think the Delay may be the only one of the Arion's that is sought after due to its obsolete bucket brigade components giving it its clean warm tone.
