For those interested, Alan Jackson and I have just finished the fine tuning of the Copicat Gold and have posted some demos here;

And a special one with the BT faded a few times towards the end, leaving the guitar naked - so to speak

Well Dave my ears are pleased with what they heard. great guitar playing and echo sound, superb in fact, but my pocket is not happy becuase it knows I will be leaning towards buying this Copicat Gold on the strength of what I heard here..........Cheers..

Hi all. Wow Dave what a sound and what fantastic playing. 'The Savage' says it all. Definitely the top Copycat.
Regards Geoff.

Hi Dave

From what I heard this time it's a vast improvement on last time when it was done... sounds real deal to me... want one

These new demos are much more convincing (soundwise) than the previous ones !

Sounds good, but at £875 (introductory offer of £100 off), it's a bit pricey.

'Pricey' doesn't even come close!
Maybe I'm living in the past when it comes down to what does or doesn't appear expensive, for even if it were half that amount I'd still be severely twitching in the wallet department. At a more reasonable (to me) price, surely there would be more potential buyers - or does everyone think the normal full £975 cost acceptable for an echo unit, albeit a good one?
Maybe its because of the investment incurred and they need to recover this and show a reasonable profit, but sadly it's well out of my reach, no matter the reasoning behind it's price structuring. I suppose you either can or can't afford something and that's that.

You know Martyn I think I'm living in the past also as regard to prices and wages,when I ask my Sons how much they earn I nearly fall off my chair, a friend came around yesterday and I said you look worn out he said when i came off my shift yesterday they asked me to stay on for one more to cover sick crew, but i got £400 for doing it, what I thought, but to him it was the norm, so to him this Echo Unit would be under a week's wage.........Thats why maybe we both need to catch up on the value of stuff, and what surplus cash people have to spend these days, I wish I could be part of it still !
