Gone as of approximately 10:15pm tonight:
EXH Stereo Polyphase and EHX Next Step Expression Pedal

The 24V adaptor for the Polyphase caused problems when using with my Radial Loopbone (when both plugged into the same power strip, which is the only practical option, there was audio bleed through the loops).

Incoming:
Cusack Tap-A-Phase (v2.2) - seemed like a decent deal for $149. Will find out before the weekend gets here I hope!

Nothing crazy. The couple of Bass / Treble switches that I could def get by without. I really, really dug my version 1 and this new 3 is, not to my ears, radically different. I would not mind having either one.

Going: [sfx]-modded Digitech Bad Monkey

*sigh* I am just not a tube screamer guy. I tried. Max does fantastic work, but it turns out that I really am just not this kind of distortion. I prefer silicon fuzz for my distortion.

In: disenfranchisement with effects

My minimalist journey with bass guitar for the music that I play has brought me to the point that I am even losing my curiosity and interest for new and interesting effects.

Well, like your sig says, music is a language, and you're obviously refining yours...

I know I don't curse nearly as much as I used to, and use 'bigger' words too!

Think of your journey through the land of effects as a learning process that taught you what you really want from your playing. I know I don't want/need nearly as many effects as I did when I first started bst'ing @ 3 years ago.

So, I guess what I'm saying is... I forgive you...

What effects, if any, have you kept?

high-pass filter, low-pass filter, graphic EQ. Basically, just EQing to help with a room, but otherwise leaving the bass tone alone. It took me a while, but I have really begun to sync up with my bass' natural tone...that, or I have finally gained a modicum of skill and was using a pedal to obscure my inexperience.

THAT'S dedication. Or addiction. One or the other.

One can be dedicated to their addiction.
