Hey guys, I thought it would be interesting to make a thread where people share their favorite pedals. It'll help give people an idea of what other people are using, and maybe help people decide on a pedal.
Tell us your favorite:

I don't see how it can be consolidated especially since everyone plays different types of music with different types of styles that will sound different with the exact same pedal (Depending on their goals).

Guys, really, if you don't like the idea, don't post in the thread, it's not a hard concept. I don't go into McDonalds just to tell them I don't like them. I just pass on by. |

For example... My favorite delay pedal is the TC Electronics Flashback. Why? Because it's the only one I've ever owned or played. I'm not sure how that's going to help anyone.
