"Best value for a Vintage Analog Delay pedal"

Overall: 4.5 out of 5 stars
(see rating details)
Sound
A compact and light pedal comparable to the sound of much expensive boutique pedals. If you're on a tight budget but looking for high quality sounding analog delay, VD400 would be the best solution.
Ease of Use
Just like any other vintage analog delay pedal, the three control knobs are easy to use and tweak to get the sound you are looking for in an analog delay pedal.
Quality
Its made of plastic, but industrial grade ABS plastic; the same material used on motorcyle helmets, and other impact resistant headgears/safety gears.
Value
With the price, this pedal is a winner among the analog delay pedals.
Manufacturer Support
No problem so far.
The Wow Factor
Its the sound. Did a test with the Aqua Puss, and couldnt tell the difference when i closed my eyes.

Boutique pedal companies buy their bucket brigade chips from Behringer. A true vintage delay used for slapback and doubling, not for long delay trails. But the sound is like an tape machine.

"Great value for the price!"

I've only had this about a month or so, but I like it!! For the money, this thing works like a charm, does exactly what it's supposed to do, nice little slapback-type delay, and gives a nice full sound. I'm sure it could be tweaked to do more, but I was quickly able to zero in on the sound i needed. I use this mainly for harmonica, but it works just as well for guitar. There doesn't seem to be any volume loss when the pedal is turned on. I like the two separate outputs for effect signal and dry signal (two amps is always fun) Yes it's plastic, but good, thick, sturdy-feeling plastic. I don't foresee that being an issue- simple as not being abusing the gear. I'm sure spending the extra $100 or more will give a lot more tricks and variety. I was a little nervous since the price is so low, and these days it's hard to find quality for this price range. So for us musicians who have to make every dollar spent really count, this is great!!

"Good bang for the buck"

Works perfectly and sounds great. For 25 bucks I wasn't expecting much but was pleasantly surprised. I typically dont buy " cheap" products but youtube videos on just about all the Behringer pedals sound fantastic. Took a chance on it and glad I did. Gives me that slapjack echo delay I needed to tune in that Johhny Cash/Luther Perkins tone.
