Ibanez AD9-Anybody using one?

Sign in to disble this ad
I've bee looking for a delay for months now, at a reasonable price (i.e. used). I'm very interested in the Ibanez AD9: it's analog, made by Keeley, and comes in Pepto-Bismol pink. I'm looking for a dark delay (think Pink Floyd, even though I'm aware they used massive vintage rackmount delay), and I don't need massive delay time, tap tempo, or looping capabilities. I'm hoping it self-oscillates, as I generally end sets with a noise solo by setting my bass against the amp and twisting pedal knobs like a mental ******.

The AD9 pops up fairly often at a decent price. I hear good things about it from guitarists. I just need to know what bassists think to seal the deal. Tell me what you think!

I've had one on my board for 2 1/2 years. I dig it.

I don't suppose you have a sound clip of it ready to roll?

I've been looking at those, too. I don't want to pay a lot because I'm only looking to use it on one song. Does it do slapback?

The Keeley AD-9 is a great effing pedal, the oscillation momentary switch should be on every delay from her to eternity. Unfortunately a little short in time for me, otherwise I'd have one.
