ME-50B or ME-70? I know it's been asked but I need help quick!

Hey guys, first of all let me acknowledge the fact that this question has indeed been asked before, and I apologize for being "that troll". Please bear with me, as I have access to both a used -50B and a used -70 at fantastic prices. I need to decide ASAP.
I went to the local shop and fooled around with the ME-70, and was quite surprised. I didn't know how it was going to sound through a bass and bass cab. It was clean, and with a few tweaks I found I didn't lose any low-end at all. I really wish the -50B had the separate MOD and DELAY pedals like the -70. That'd be the perfect pedal for me.
The -50B, on the other hand, has a few bass-specific effects such as Octave Up and Sound Hold that I think would be awesome to have. Obviously can't have those with the -70.
Another trivial factor is the fact that (as I understand) the expression pedal on the -50B is plastic, whereas the -70's is metal.
So, if they are roughly the same price should I stick with the bass "specific" ME-50B, or step into the guitar effects zone and get the added pedal and customization of the -70?
Any and all information/opinions/experiences is appreciated! Thanks! |
