Let's take a closer look at the Greer Amplification Lightspeed

The pedal is very high quality, handmade in the U.S.A. and it even comes with a lifetime warranty, which makes it a secure investment. We have no concerns over durability, though, and it feels like it will perform well long-term without any issues, even if it gets knocked about during transit.

The design has a vintage vibe to it which makes it look much older than it is. It is blue with all metal casing which means that it will probably last long, no matter how much you travel with it. It even runs on a 9V battery if needed. This is a nice option if you want to go for a durable but relatively cheap pedal.
