Big Lloyde Dee-Layer

Simple as it gets. Vlume, Delay time, repeats.

A child could use it.
it would get a 9 from me but when you add in the ingenious fx loop it gets a 10!

Sounds just like an echo plex. Seriously!

I A/B'd this witha friends and this is as close as I've found.

I treid to post a link to clips before but I guess HC wont let me do that. You can go to the gear page net and search for dee layer and find my clips.


I love that you can add fx on the delay'd repeats via the fx loop. Put chorus on it and get warble. Put an overdrive in there and it will sounds like an echoplex with dirty heads. Use an eq to tailor the delay sound to your needs although in stock form its perfect.

Justin added an extra switch to mine that cuts highs for darker delay in the right or lets more highs thru on the left.

I HIGHLY advise asking Justin to add this to your unit!

I've had it for over 2 years now with no problems.

As stated before , it is a work of art inside. Handwired with nice soldering job. alpha pots, switchcraft jacks, panasonic caps and carbon comp resistors,burr brown op amp, true bypass switch etc. The finest.

No backup needed.


If this said BJ or MP on the outside it would be $500.

I have emailed Justin several times with questions,comments,suggestions etc and he always returned my emails and was very friendly.

I think its a one man show there and you get to deal with the maker.

Extra prps because he isn't a pompous fill in the blank.

This unit would get a 10 from me if it was $400

Now add in that its only $139 and you'll see the value and how much of a break Justin is giving his customers.

Simply put: The best 600 ms delay I have ever played thru in a 25 year career.

Also, Justin assemble's a lot of Wampler's pedals so you know he has experience on his side.

very easy to get a good sound out of

I have used this with fenders and gibsons through a Rivera Fandango and a Mesa Boogie DC 5. I use it in the FX loop and its pretty quite I have tried it in the front end of both these amp and it sounds good, but I prefer it in the loop. I use it with the delay set at about 3 oclock, feedback about 9 o clock and the level anywere from 9-12 o clock.

I have used this pedal at home, practice and several gigs it has never given me a bit of trouble

I have only emailed Justin to let him know I was pleased with the pedal that I plann on purchasing more of his effects

If it were stolen I would buy another. I have tried several diffent delays boss DD20, Nova delay, toadworks redux. I wasnt happy with any of these. I have found that I prefer pedals that sound good and are simple, I would rather twist 3 knobs and have it sound great than have something programable that sounds so so. I also feel that many products on the market pack more features into there product than are usefull and sacrifice sound quallity.

all the knobs that you are used to are here.really easy to dail in your sound.this has a loop feature that ands what ever you have in the loop to just the delayed signal,did not think i woul use it but i do and it is a kool feature.

nice clean warm delays only makes noise at extreme settings and Justin states this on his web site.I have a tc rack and the delay and modulation effects are on the same module so you cant use them together so this allows me to have delay with chorus and such.has about 600ms of delay on tap,most builders only give you 300/400ms so this was aplus for me.

looks well built on the inside a real nice job.used it on 2 gigs and had no problems.

Justin is quick and very helpful,professional.

great for all styles.i have been playing 40 years.i have been looking for a stompbox delay for awhile and there is alot out there but this has more delay time than alot of the others.i will look forward to doing business with Justin again.

Very easy to get a good sound out of,Delay knob goes from 10ms to 600ms.Feedback goes from slapback to forever,and level balances volume of effected and uneffected.

there is so many usable sounds in this box from slapback to runaway ufos.My setting is , delay 1 oclock to 2 oclock.feedback(repeats)10 oclock,level 9 to 10 oclock.with the level maxed or past 3 oclock some noise starts to creep in and Justin tells you this on his website.It depends alot on your pickups and other gear.I use this with a Randall rm50 or a 1980 mesa super sixty.Very smooth and warm sounding delay and most builders only offer 300ms,and I was looking more an got just what I wanted!

I opened this up and the craftsmanship is a work of art.I have pedals not anywhere near this kind of build quality and they keep working so I cant see any problems coming from this,so no backup.

Quick,freindly,helpful service.you can't beat.

I play most styles of music but love bluesrock tone.54 years old ,so been at it awhile.Tried all the boxes out there and there are some good ones but this was a steal.When I got it I played almost 3 hours with it on a gig.I got to augment a TC gsharp but I never cut it off.I am to old to list all my gear on my pedal board but you will like this pedal and its a steal.
