MXR M169 Carbon Copy

Avg price: $146.99

Warm and Simple Analog Delay

Before committing to the carbon copy, I did try quite a few different delays. I landed on this one for a few reasons.

The first is it sounds great. Although it is a little dark and not the clearest delay out there, I prefer it that way. I usually play rock and blues, and the sound of this delay just meshes with that music incredibly well. Personally, I rarely go beyond a quarter note delay, but the Carbon Copy adds a thickness to my tone that I very much miss if it is absent.

The second reason I like this pedal is because of how easy it is to use. Three knobs; mix, regen, and delay. Couple those with a modulation button and you have a very intuitive pedal. This was an important consideration for me given my use of delay, but I can see how some folks may want more features.

The MXR Carbon Copy is heavy for its standard-sized case, and feels very robust as I’ve come to expect from all MXR pedals. I’ve owned it for years and it’s been incredibly reliable.

The carbon copy is phenomenal. It is my always on pedal, and if you are looking for a simple warm sounding delay, check it out.

clean, simple, clearly designed to lean on your amp's natural tone and breakup when pushed

@jimmarchi1 I've really cut back quite a bit. I love my tweed champ, and it doesn't need too much pushing for great tones at the volume levels I play at. Throw on some delay or reverb to taste and sounds great to my ears.
