If you could only have 1 brand of pedals on your pedalboard, which would it be? I guess the obvious choices are probably Boss, EHX and MXR/Dunlop.
I have to say I would go with MXR/Dunlop. All of my pedals except for my Hematoma are made by them. 105Q wah, DC Brick, M117R flanger and a Phase 100. If all my pedals had to be by them I would add a Blowtorch, MicroAmp and probably a DynaComp.
What about you? Which brand and which pedals would you choose?

I'd like to think that when I put together my pedal board (in the works), it'll be diverse between the brands in it. However, I see myself looking at Electro-Harmonix products and thinking "Hey, I wouldn't mind having one of those"
Second choice would be Zvex, although those are expensive, then Line 6, then maybe T Rex, although there aren't many sound clips of their pedals with bass...

| | Registered User | | Join Date: Feb 2006 Location: Oakland, California, USA | | Definitely EHX. Now that the Bass Big Muff, Micro POG, and Stereo Memory Man with Hazarai are in the lineup, I would have little reason to look outside that brand. 
In a close second is MXR. Why isn't it first? Because my Mistress sees more action than my Blowtorch.

But, really, who doesn't?
Oh, and so that I'm not totally off topic for the threeve-teenth time today, I don't think I could play this game. Daddy likes variety.

But If it had to be only one it would have to go to MXR. |

Now, she's in three songs live, two of which now have recorded basslines.
(And none have made it to the MySpace yet...  )

Dove overdrive, Openhaus Fuzz, Halophaze Phaser, Powerglide Trem, VFM for controlling Effect/Distortion (go watch the videos on his site if you haven't yet) with his modded EBMM Exp. Pedal, and the EchoCzar Delay with the AngelBaby Modulation Accessory, all powered by one or more of his modded PP2+.

In specific the ToneLok serie.
I finally got my Phat Hed set up so it makes the drive I am looking for.
I also ordered the SB-7 Bass Synthesizer, of wich I have high expectations.
Ordered it saturday, about 2 weeks waiting they said.
Also the DE-7 Delay Echo would be nice. I'd like a very simple delay padal.
Plus, you gotta admit: they look so cool. I just imagine the three I want next to each other.
EDIT: And I don't like Ibanez basses and guitars. 
But the ToneLok pedals I love.
