Quick, get it while you can!  Rare Vintage Behringer Hell Baby Wah!

Well I never!

Bless.  I've got socks older than that pedal.

I think the rule of thumb should be that anything with the URL for the manufacturer's website printed on it can't be described as 'vintage'.

A couple of years ago a young chap came into the shop and asked if I could service his dad's vintage Marshall which he'd just acquired. No problem I said, bring it in.

It was a '93 Valvestate 8080.

I laughed until I realised it was over 20 years old, and the chap wasn't .

Some of the earlier Behringer stuff will be at least 20 years old now, although I'm doubtful about that wah - I'm not sure there's an exact definition of 'vintage', but that seems to be a common cut-off age for a lot of people.

You know you're getting old when Behringers approach 'vintage' status!

Ok , I'll get my pipe and slippers, now where was that George Formby songbook ?

Any Behringer gear of that era still working must have something going for it, most failed just after the guarantee expired or you took it out of the house, whichever happened first. ;-)
In truth a lot of electrical gear will fail quickly of last seemingly forever whoever made it.

I had one of those wahs.  Believe me, not working would have most definitely been an improvement.

The Behringer Hellbabe is without doubt the worst guitar pedal ever maden in my opinion. I'd completely forgotten I'd had one until seeing this.

It didn't do a lot and what it did was bad.

The idea and the concept are great, the actual sound it makes is terrible, really terrible.
