Pedals you regret ditching

[nobodysfool]

I miss my old EH PolyFlange...It did really cool things to the bass sound. Sold it because I needed the cash. Hated to part with it, but....

Call me crazy but I am one of the very few people who actually liked my Boss PH-3. It may not be the most traditional phaser but man it did some cool stuff. Never had any low end loss with it. My guitarist has it now. I can always buy it back if I really wanted to. Hmmm

 

[MightyMiloQuinn]

I liked the PH-3, though not enough to keep it. The Rise and Fall functions were fun, and I liked the 10-stage function. Now I'm using the 10-stage function on the SA Orbital...

I sold my IE Subterranea last week. I miss it.

I haven't sold that many pedals in my lifetime period, but I get infrequent pangs of regret over my Boss ODB-3 and my Markbass Supersynth. Just around the time I was learning how to make the ODB-3 sound good, I had learned about different, better pedals that it made more sense to buy/use. And the Supersynth still has some of the greatest synth sounds out of a pedal that I've heard. But then I remember, on both pedals, that (1) I had moved on to different, better overdrives and (2) there were also many things to dislike about the Supersynth (size, power requirements, necessity of computer for editing).

Wounded Paw Attack Goat. I would describe the top end as "sizzling" and "crispy" (hey - that also describes bacon, and I love bacon!); unlike anything I've ever heard from a dirt pedal.

I may never get over trading away my 3Leaf Proton. i was chasing the purple tone dragon....

A set of Moog Taurus 1's in 1984.

 

[SGT. BAKER]

Boss Flanger BF-2 and MXR Microchorus.

Sell pedals?!? What a strange concept.

Actually I have sold a few, though not recently. One I wish I had held on to is the Fulltone Fulldrive I had years ago. It wasn't a sound I understood at the time but it would have been interesting to give it another go now, and maybe mod it for bass

Wren and Cuff Tall Font Russian.

Still saving my pennies for a replacement.

 

[cheapbasslovin]

HOG. I probably wouldn't be using it right now so it isn't a terrible loss in that way, but it was a really fun pedal that allowed me to turn my bass into almost ANYTHING. Sometimes I yearn for it when not practicing for actual gigs.

 

[flameworker]

Mutron.

 

[TerribleLiar23]

GT2. The only pedal I've ever sold then re-purchased. I didn't use it a whole lot, but I missed it's versatility, and for the price I realized it was stupid to not keep it around.

 

[G.Bisson]

Was reminiscing about a Brown Dog when I came across this thread. It would really fill in that gap of tones I can't get with the 5 other fuzz pedals I have in rotation.

 

[GazzBass]

I had this old beat up Phase 90 I sold when I foolishly went down the multi effects road for a while. I've since re bought a lot of pedals but I can't find a Phase 90 that sounds as good as my old one. I've no idea what year it was but it sounded much better than the others I've tried. Anyone know why that might be??

 

[6jase5]

Mutron.

Yup, same for me.

 

[punchdrunk]

I once sold a Mike Pope/Fodera Jensen loaded Preamp/DI to a fellow TB'er…..ended up missing its usefulness so much that I persuaded him to sell it back some months later,

 

[punchdrunk]

Also I once gave away a pedal that had been sitting unused in a dresser drawer of mine for years…. it was a mint DOD Meatbox.

 

[flameworker]

Yup, same for me.

I didnt know what I had, the frequency 3 way switch was broken on mine, so it only worked in guitar frequencys. Later I found out it had been an original and was worth$$$. that was right about the time the Q-tron came out.
