Would like a Micro POG in good condition (with power supply) for a reasonable price.
Thanks,
Rich

Rich,

You can pick up one of those from ebay for around $175, plus shipping. I have one, and it's the best octave pedal I've ever owned. It actually does exactly what it says, and if you play a chord on your bass, it does not fall apart, like it would on others I've tried that have claimed the same thing. I don't think you're going to find a used one, but check ebay, that's probably the best place to find one for a reasonable price and get it quickly.

Peace;)

Rich,

I actually just found 7 auctions for the micro pog, and 1 used one. The used one is already up to $120, so for $64 more, you can get a brand new one from a reputable seller- I'm pretty sure I bought mine from them, and I received the item in 3 days, if I remember correctly. That's the most inexpensive one, with a BIN (Buy It Now) of $184. You really can't beat that, for what the pedal is, and its capabilities- the rest of them are all right around $200 or slightly more, but you can see for yourself, if you just do a search under "micro pog" under musical instruments.

Good Luck!

Frank

How does the micro POG compare to the original? I tried the original and loved it; made bass sound like a B3 organ...if the micro is close I'm getting one! Tony

I love it for the twelve string acoustic guitar sound I can get with it and my Alembics. Worth every penny.

Thank you, everybody. The Micro POG is the only octave effect I've tried that did what I thought one should. I'll get one soon I'm sure. I always like to ask around here before going onto the rest of the net.
Thanks again.

Tony, I haven't actually tried the original POG, but from what I understand (and believe me, I researched this a bit on the EH website before making my purchase) the Micro POG does everything the original does, but comes in a more compact (and let's face it, a more user friendly version) size. I think having 3 knobs rather than 8 faders is a way better setup, anyway. And for $100 less! You can't beat it!
