Hahahaha classic. I agree and disagree. We all hear about ppl going nuts over chancellor and his whammy stuff and ppl on here think they have struck gold when they find a bass whammy but honestly if digitech made a chancellor signature whammy I doubt it would go over that well. The only ppl that would be interested in it are justin chancellor fanatics. Don't get me wrong i'm a big tool fan and I love what justin does on bass but I wouldn't buy a signature chancellor whammy over it. Just like I love muse but you'll never see a 700$ deep impact on my board.

Yeah, my price of 800 for my bass whammy is crazy. But... people have been paying that kind of money for them. It's absolute supply and demand. They're out of production, people want them (seemingly mostly tool fans), and I have one and could use the money right now. It's as simple as that. I certainly wouldn't pay that for one, but then again I wouldn't pay that for any pedal. That, and I don't like Tool all that much.

Oh I wasn't trying to break your balls. I understand why you would charge that and i'm sure you can get that. I agree though, I couldn't justify spending 800 on any pedal no matter what it does

Yes, I find myself in the same boat as you on this subject. I dig some of the whammy effects and would likely use them in my music, but $500-800 for a pedal is just ridonkulous IMO.

A re-issue would be nice, but I'm sure we all know how that would end up...

1) The tracking wouldn't be the same
2) The tone wouldn't be as "...rich, full, or bassy as the original."
3) The pitch shift modes that are on the original wouldn't be on this one
4) It would have cheesy stuff on it to let people KNOW it's the Justin Chancellor sig model, so there is no pleading ignorance on buying the pedal
5) The price would be exorbitant for a mass-manufactured pedal
6) It would probably blow up on people or wear out ridiculously quick and have tons of QC issues.

If they do release one, I hope I have to eat my words up there and then I'll promptly buy one myself
