Wait...that description is on every Blue Box listing. I thought the BB was an octave-down fuzz effect?
 
That's eBay's canned item description that comes up for every "MXR Blue Box" description when you list one for sale. Not sure how those canned descriptions are compiled, but clearly somebody had some fun with this one.

I guess so. :confused: Pretty fucked up that they list the Blue Box as a multi-effect "modeling" pedal...

Isn't that wrong to sell something as something it's not though? Someone is going to buy it thinking they just scored a mini-modeler type pedal and it's about as far from that as can be. :gethim: :lol: :LOL:

He forgot to mention the modded knobs.....
Shit.....they didnt need to be mentioned. Anyone in the fold knows a good honest Modded knob on a pedal when they see it. :lol: :LOL:

But then again....I have the inside hand...

Unrelated, but this got me thinking...I was checking out some HDTVs today. Wife and I decided it's time to upgrade. I noticed the "TCL" chinese brand offers budget models and they've been developing tech for RCA for over a decade. I read a big article on how the brand strives to build high quality products and has very high standards that are up there with the big Japanese brands, blah, blah blah...

Got to the user reviews and the first couple were headlined "Do not buy this TV! Mine broke down after 2 months, etc"

Lol. I wonder how bad it's going to be in another 10 years?
