The ugliest looking pedal

For me it's the EHX Enigma Qballs. I love what it does but its dirty light green color hurts my eyes. I'm thinking about painting it red or white!

I saw a pedal here last year in a "pedal custom paint job" type thread. Tried locating it, but didn't find it.

The pedal was absolutely repulsive. It looked like someone threw up on it.

I dont have a pic to post atm, but the ugliest pedal I own would be my Ibanez SD-9. It's a lighter, brighter green than the Tubescreamer, kinda bordering dayglow.

My older brown Boss eq and limiter pedals look somewhat "turdish". They still look quite normal compared to the examples posted above.

for me, really, anything EHX makes. i'm not a fan of the mostly exposed gray box with crappy graphics.

Every pedal picture in this thread look really great!
