Pedals that stayed on your board the longest?

I don't know how many years ...but the 1st year the vt bass came out. It's an old v1. Gigged the crap out of it. Never failed me.....yet.....

- I like 5, 8, 10, and 12 string basses
Ibanez PD7/PhatHed. Great dirt unit. I have also kept my Ampeg SCR-DI on there going on a couple of years now. But I don;t use a lot of pedals to start with
Boss NS-2 noise gate - sounds good, works well, the loop is great for taming pedals that may add noise (dirt, EQ, etc). It's been part of every rig I've had for the past 12 years or so.
VT Bass DI and Way Huge Green Rhine - wait, the green rhino is out now (no need for overdrive, my kid needs one for his guitar), but may return in the next iteration of my pedalboard.
Sansamp programmable bass driver. Any other pedal needs to play nice with this one
IIRC correctly here's my current board:
Aguilar Tone Hammer - Since 2012
MXR Bass Octave Deluxe - Since 2012
Darkglass B3K - Since 2015
Zoom MS-60B - Since 2016
Aguilar Tone Hammer - Since 2012

Ironically, a snark tuner that I got for $25 maybe 6 years ago. After that, a seymour duncan studio bass for 5 years, and most recently, the alpha omicron, which totally killed any other overdrive GAS.
My wireless has been on my board forever. I really need to update it, but it still works so why bother.
TC chorus flanger. 32 years. Retired it before it quit at a gig.
BBE Sonic Stomp. I no longer care how it does what it does. Whatever it is, I've liked it for...hmm...a really long time.
A BBE Opto Stomp for me. Well, it's a compressor, which do have a questionable status as FX around here. Maybe ten years?
Right behind that, an EHX Big Muff Pi Nano. Really got a kick out of it after adding a Boss LS-2 though. Now a mainstay of my sound, maybe 7 years.

Shure glxd wireless/tuner has been on my board the longest. It just works
Tc nova repeater delay second longest. Got turned onto it watching Janek Gwizdala videos on YouTube. Made the mistake of selling my first one and then bought another because I missed it. Won't make that mistake again. I use it for song intros, Hollywood endings and soloing and every other delay I've had I had issues with. For example I don't want to use an app or have to connect a pedal to a computer to get the sound I want.
For the last 5 years or so I've had at least one darkglass dirt pedal on the board but they have been swapped out. I started with the b7k ultra and then switched to the Alpha/omega and now use a microtubes X.
Nothing else has really stuck long term.
