In excellent condition, has original box.

I bought this used a few weeks ago, and am paring down my effects. It's a terrific pedal, can go from light Fendery OD to raging Marshall. No midrange hump. I love the pedal but I'm going in a different direction.

$90 PP and shipped to lower US.

In what direction are you going? I have heard many good comments about that pedal. Is it like a regular overdrive, or is it more towards a distortion pedal? I think Mark Wein uses one of these.

I'm going more with guitar through amp with occasional overdrive. Trying mainly for natural tube overdrive. You know, smaller amp cranked tone.

I would say the Barber is overdrive and distortion. But that's my take, and I'm not into a lot of distortion. There are some good demos on Pro Guitar Shop and gearmandude that show what the pedal can do. What everyone says, and I agree, is they can't believe this pedal doesn't cost way more. But I'm not looking for pedal od/distortion at this point.

Let me know if you've got any other questions.
