Goodrich Model LDR7 - no POT and no Wall Wart: - Finally, a potless volume pedal with no plug-in power supply (that means automatic worldwide compatibility and NO more Wall-Warts!).
 - NEW from Goodrich: a BATTERY-operated LDR!
- The new pedal includes the equivalent of the popular Match Box 7A with its impedance-matching circuitry, as well as tone and volume controls.
- The new system is called "LDR7" and consists of 2 units (known as LDR7-1, which clamps on the leg of your steel guitar, & the pedal itself, LDR7-2). These 2 units will work ONLY as a mated pair.
- Both units are battery-operated. But WAIT. Battery life is a full year* or more. And, at the end of this time, batteries can be replaced with new ones in less than 2 minutes. This eliminates the plug-in power supply.
- *9-volt battery life is based on 5 hours per day 5 days a week. An absolutely noise-free circuit with no internal moving parts makes this the ultimate volume control system.
- One-year warranty.

According to the list price posted, you will need to take out a 2nd mortgage (at least my opinion of the price).I realize everyone is in business to make money but items could be more realistically priced (and I'm referring to the MSRP). I notice the list price on the new MatchBro is sky high too[This message was edited by Jack Stoner on 28 May 2005 at 08:46 AM.] |

Soon all these DOBRO sounds and other new sounds will be available in software only. Like the free downloadable sounds for the PodXT. It is just a matter of time.
