NIce!

Is there a distinct way to identify which of the older models are fast or slow?

Hold on a minute! :hihi:
so the 2009 = dark
and pre 2006 = blues

?!

So I can decide whether to kick myself in the nuts harder or just use a needle for not buying that!

Okay, So Dark it is then!

One more question. Is there a lot of low end growl to the dark compared to the Blues?

I posted this question in the news section but might as well feed it in here as well: I've got a silver sparkle sonic titan from over a year ago that was sold on the DAM ebay store...would it be a blues or dark? Thanks!

ok good to know...it sure doesn't sound "dark" but I suppose that's just the name designation. I'll have to get a blues version down the road as the titan is a favorite dist. pedal for me and my silver sparkle gets a lot of use!

that's what the captn seems to say in the blurb. Latest versions have more basses than the 2006 models... theyre not dark sounding, jsut fatter it seems.

Yeah, more low end and thicker sounding, the older one seems to cut a little more.
