Sort of redundant
Is my Boss GT-6 guitar effects pedal. It's been superseded by the GT-8 and 10, and soon the 12, as well as numerous other competitors, and is fairly recent in terms of technology, debuting in 2002, but I love it. It was virtually indestructible despite me standing on it every day for the last 5 years, sometimes catapulting myself off it on to the top of my amp. It's survived boots stamping on it, being dropped, drinks spilling on it, fags being dropped on it, and it still works like new.

I could replace it with a new, shinier version that works a lot better. I could do that, and take the time to reprogram all the patches to my own personal settings. I could fuck around with the tone settings and everything to recreate the sounds, if not get better sounds from the new shiny bit of technology.

But I'm not going to. Not until my GT-6 dies, which at this rate, will be sometime around 2112. But it's already redundant.

you will have found this strange device with wires that vibrate and give music. Tunes that climb high like a mountain or notes that fall gently, like rain.

GT-8
I have a GT-8. it can make a million sounds, but I only ever use 2.... I think it's me that's redundant.

Guitar stuff never becomes redundant
...I'm using a guitar from 1964 and an amp made in 1978
