Awesome! Sadly after i bought a unit for 8k directly from them.

The timeline is going to be a standard delay unit within the next few years; you will see.
    Now a Bluesky and a Flint are finally realistically in my grasp! My pedal collection is almost complete.

      Im a fan of strymon... But why both?
      The only thing the bluesky does more is the shimmer?!

          Well the previous dealer still owes me money and ran away with the balance of my cash, and my timeline...
          (He did give me a few random pedals to try sell off. still came up about R2k short)

          I wont buy pedals in SA, ever... did it once and look what happened.
          I buy from Benjamin Craig, Proguitarshop.com, musictoyz.com, effectspedals.com and eBay. probably imported about 30 pedals over the last 6 years.
          Can get a Timeline off Ebay for $400, why pay R6000+ locally... ??????????????????

          I dont like these middle men, let them sell boss pedals to the crowds. Leave the good stuff for us to import on our own.
          I bought a brand new Trex Replica, out the box landed in SA for R2800 last year... they R7000 here - how embarrasing

          What do you mean by this?

          The Timeline does so much I bet no one that owns one even uses 20% of its features..
          and playing live the timeline users probably use one delay sound with tap tempo ?

          Still incredible, as is the Timefactor.. but oh soooo complex..

            Derp, my bad! I mean the Bluesky and the Mobius... although maybe I should consider an El Cap too!
              6k for a pedal....I seen many a top guitarist here in za with a whole pedal board that don't come to 6k...actually a lot of them had some boss pedals for the masses it appears....

                Honestly, so what? By that logic I can see I don't see many top guitarists in the world playing Tokais and Kempers, but I see LOADS playing Gibsons and Fenders - doesn't mean either is better or more correct. So sick of this bullshit, "If it's good enough for pro SA guitarists, you shouldn't be using anything else" attitude that I seen a quite few times on this forum.

                  U missed my sarcasm here I suspect..... But we agree.... Whatever works for you works whether it is a boo teeek 6k pedal or a lowly joyo that the masses buy........ The average member In the audience prolly does not notice the difference anyway
                    EY. When you want something bad enough and can afford it, get it.

                    Anyway; go and look at your gear and calculate what your WHOLE board actually is worth; you'll be surprised. Gear is expensive; just the way it is.

                    I bought an El Capistan for just under 4K. The rest of the costs are landing fees, taxes and UPS. Really wanted the Timeline, but it was a bit too much and I know I would only use about 40% of it.

                    Keen on checking what the launch will mean for us.

                      Damn... My flint cost me just on R3k, the El Cap slightly more... everything included (even ZA customs).
                      Rand really took a shit dive then! ☹
