I know I told in the video that the pedal is 12 years old, sorry. I didn't check it's actual age before I started shooting this. My bad. :) The GT-8 came out in 2008 which makes it 13 years old. Insane...
But does it sound any good now in 2021?! Let's find it out together.
Enjoy Gear Corner!

** Why the "Anzeige" (=Ad) message? **
According to german laws everyone has to mark their videos as advertisements as soon as there's a single "subject relevant" product, tag or link in it. Even if you didn't get paid for making that video. Sounds confusing and it really doesn't help the viewer to see which is a paid review and which isn't. But it's the law so whatever...
--- The line of truth: Is this actually a paid review? No it isn't. (I update this line for every video).
