- With the new generation of multiple effects processors coming out it seems
- that used ones from the previous generation are available at very good prices
- everywhere you look. Judging by the equipment you say you have it looks like
- you are not a player who demands the newest, best and most expensive gear to
- make you happy (and there's nothing at all wrong with that). Look around in
- pawn shops, local newspapers and even the bulletin boards in your local
- music stores. I recently got a Boss ME-5 in trade for an old guitar. It's
- obsolete but I think it's great.
