The DD6 is cool! But if I pick one for free I'd rather go with a Line 6 DL4.

If you just want a weak delay then I'm sure the DD3 would be fine. :?

Why not compare them? Think of the DD6 as the DL4's baby.

(You do know that the DD6 can loop stuff, don't you?)

well a return policy is a return policy

but i will definetly take in a musicians friend and see if they will match it

and it blows because i live 4 hours away from this shop, and i can get none of this stuff around my hometown because its so small... i could mail order but then i cant try it out

beh, and im not even going, my parents are going down there to exchange it, hopefully if an adult demands them to match the price or somthing they will

beh

My thing is this...you didn't say eh, you know..I bought this but it's not really what I want. Then I can see them saying well, how about you return it for store credit and get something you want. But its not that. The thing was fucked up and they're holding your money hostage...AHH!!! lol. I didnt' even know companies were allowed to have a return policy like that. Don't you only see the return policy on the receipt...after you buy the fucking thing? You don't really have much say in it then. But yeah...that's rediculous. If they don't match the price, I don't know...go to the BBB or something :lol:

yeah, fuck it, its only money, and its only an extra 40 bucks, and hopefully they will match it because my parents will probably bitch

it is a great store too, excellent salespeople, but retail stores just cant compete with national mailorder.. its a shame

noone ever buy the danelectro dan-echo, i thought it was good quality when i played it in the store, but i got it home and it makes hissing noises, and i checked out some reviews and the quality was pretty much hit or miss.. and i talked to my cousin who has the same thing, and he loves it

beh, oh well

What's your point?

The DD6 can loop 5.2 seconds or something.
The DL4 can loop 14 seconds or something, plus it can overdub.
The DD6 has some delay effects and tap temp etc.
The DL4 has even more delay effects (including vintage delay effects).
The DD6 costs a lot.
The DL4 costs even more.

They are pretty much the same, the DL4 is only way bigger and better.

I had the Dan Echo at one time, and I never had problems with it. What kind of setup do you use?
