Your best of 22

[cosmicevan]

The year is wrapping up in the blink of an eye...

What pedal(s) rocked your world this year? Something new to market change the game or fell in love with a timeless classic this year or maybe it was a no name clone? Share what did it for you this year!


For me this year saw my Dwarftcraft Devices collection explode and I found the Second Sound Unisyn to let me drive MIDI synths w my bass (this also lead to falling down the sy th rabit hole)!!!

My favorite new to market pedal has to be the Broughton Scorpion and the coolest new to me this year was probably the Electrofoods Nepentheses or the SmallSoundBigSound f.ck.

The Origin Effects Super Vintage is easily the best addition to my pedalboard that I have ever made.

 

[mdalamond]

My coolest new to me is my Neural DSP.

Sushi Box FX Hand-Wired Space Heater LE#17
Broughton Omnicomp
Broughton SV-Pre



And a second Damnation Audio MBD-1.

 

[WG Plum]

Chase Bliss Habit. That is a true happy accident machine.

 

[Killing Floor]

Got it in February. Lots have come since. But this is exactly what I hoped it would be. Made by David Bray, supreme hand wired Plexi maker. And Bob at WestCo contributed to the design. Love.

Dreadbox Kinematic

Both the Diamond Bass Compressor and the Free The Tone Bass Blaster remain the business

My 30 year old Boss PQ-3B is still useful

 

[JRMK]

[T-boneParish]

Effectrode LA-1A

Leveling Amplifier Studio Grade Compressor - Effectrode

Yes indeed

 

[Parzival]

Sushi Box Finally

Let a fellow bass player sit in for me on a couple of songs at a gig a few weeks ago. Sat in the crowd and couldn’t believe how good the tone was. That Finally has some secret sauce to FOH.

 

[funkinbottom]

My only pedal purchase of 22.

 

[Iristone]

Gibson FZ-M in the treble half of my circuit
One Control Blue 360 in the bass half

 

[BassDuex]

Sarno Music Solutions: Steel String Black Box with Bass Mod: my upright has never been this enjoyable - fights feedback, enhanced dynamics and Uber smooth. I’ve never been able to reliably use high volumes before this thing.

 

[johnk_10]

Origin Super Vintage and '64 black panel for me.

 

[HelpImaRock]

The Tech 21 Bass Driver v2.

We recorded an EP earlier this year and I ended up running through a Rusty Box to warm up the sound. After hours of listening, I found I liked the BDDIv2 the best out of everything I heard. So I bought one and now it's always on.

 

[Jesuguru]

Newly-received Idiotbox Blower Box Deluxe. It has all the goodness of the original, but less scooped... and clean volume control with LPF to add as much clean low-end as you like. Stupendous pedal.

 

[neuman]

Was fortunate to pick up some pedals this year; the best ones were both Boss.

Boss OC-5 Octave
Boss SL-2 Slicer
