Saw this for the first time today. Anyone have any knowledge/experience with these?

Another bump for this one. I happened across this demo today.
Please tell us what you think about the pedal.
Got one off Reverb, inbound. Consolation for narrowly missing out on an AK cab.
Curious- what’d you get hit for? Mine cost $254 with shipping. I am sending one of mine out in trade.
The tax was a lot, should have added a comma in there. From the manufacturer it would have been $217 plus whatever shipping would have been, I don't feel too worked over for it.

It is doing two diametrically opposed things; it tightens up the low end whilst making it sound almost rubbery. Thats the best way i can describe it. The selector knob has several ranges- i found the 45 and 60 hz selections to be the most useful. The volume is @ unity gain @ 12:00. Where things get interesting is the intensity knob. Full counterclockwise there is some effect, but bumping it up from full counterclockwise-7:00 to just 8:00 makes my four string Rob Allen sound like an upright. Highly recommended. The PulTec is a strange beast. This one is really simple. It is capable of both boosting and cutting the same frequencies simultaneously.
I think one showed up on the verb for a nice price. I snagged three, traded one, and am keeping two. My guess is- it was a relatively small run- the Blue ones were gone in ten minutes, the black ones were still available for several days. I think it possible that a few show up because people won’t know how to use them.
Website says there’s a new batch coming in early December.
I would urge anyone to get on this. This thing is pretty cool. Haven’t spent a ton of time with it, but it does something indescribably delicious.
Do you have an Broughton RFE?
I’m curious if the effect is partly similar or not.
I do, indeed, and its nothing at all like the RFE; it is rather unique. It seems to boost a specific frequency whilst cutting a varying “Q” around it, depending on what you choose.
Ok, then. I resisted getting one in the first batch as I wasn’t sure about that. Now I might have to pony up in the next batch.
