Topic: RP death

Well my RP250 has died.  My son was using it and forgot to turn off power and I didnt know for at least a week.  pretty sure it overheated or shorted out. it lights up like a christmass tree. an thats it.

So now looking at teh 355 and the newer ones. found a used 355 on amazon for 145. ill probably go that rout.

so  glad i still have stomp boxes!

Re: RP death

Is this what you're referring to, Beamer?

I know you really liked that thing, as per an email you sent me several months ago. Those micro circuits don't handle a lot of heat, and I'm sorry for your loss. Will there be a memorial service? lol I certainly haven't regretted getting my Boss ME-80, and I think they're just under $300 new ... just an opinion.
