This list is fairly exhaustive and does contain some of my favs. But all time? Anything you can think of they left out?

Mosrite Fuzz rite. They were pretty big in the '60s. They still have a following. I have one and it works pretty good. I like it better then my Vox Tone Bender. |

I got a Zvex Fuzz Factory and a TRex Alberta which are both on the list. So I agree with the list
but there is great budget stuff that no one really talks about. I had a modded Ts 808 for a while which I had to sell for some financial reasons. It was just my thing. So I wanted one again. Some years ago I saw a guy play one of these: and got one right away http://www.musicstore.de/de_DE/EUR/Fame-Sw...-GIT0015022-000 THis budget thing sounded nearly as good as my old Ts808 super cheap (39 Euros) but great. Comes with 3 ICs ( one is similar to the IC used in the Ts808) that you can easily exchange !!!! You get 3 pedals like that. In this vid I used it with an IC (forgot to mention that in the vid) that gives you less and smooth OD. I use it here more like a booster in front of a clean amp. It sounds super sweet. Or here I engage it at about 2 mins with a different IC installed. This post has been edited by ItSME3: Mar 13 2012, 02:15 PM |

I think they pretty well covered it! They certainly hit every pedal I could think of But surely they left a few out? [attachment=26713:zoom_pedals.jpg] My personal favourite at the moment is the Zoom PD 01 (the silver one) I like it so much I have two of them!! I also have the rest of the set in this pice! NIce! I have not tried these. Are they expensive, and how do they sound? I got a Zvex Fuzz Factory and a TRex Alberta which are both on the list.

Yeah,
these are 42 nice pedals! But what about the legendary BK Butler Tube Driver? BK Butler Tube Driver I have recently bought one of those and I must say : Its AWSOME! Although its not a set and forget pedal. You need to discover it, especially if you have the bias version. But it has such a nice sweet spot... Famous Players are : Eric Johnson, Andy Timmons, David Gilmour. cheers, S. |
