Your FAVORITE pedal

[frsbdg]

I don't own any pedals yet, but get a kick out of some of the names.

TWA Great Divide 2.0

+1 on the TWA GD2. What a monster of a pedal.

Density Hulk!

Tone Hammer w/ AGS engaged for a very light saturation, treble flat, 3dB boost in the lows, and very modest mid scoop. Works every time.

I love my programmable sansamp pedal, but that's a pre.
I really, really do like my MXR87 Compressor though. That's got to be my favorite at the moment that's not a pre.

 

[Eublet]

Technically anything that is placed close to a weak signal source, buffers it and then forwards it to a downstream device for amplification is a preamp. Most every pedal fits that bill. The Sansamp is also an Amp/Cab simulator with an EQ and OD. Same as the Tone Hammer. Selecting either as your favorite pedal makes sense even in the context of this thread IMHO. Lots of folks are listing dirt pedals here and most of them also have an EQ or at least a tone/contour/presence control.

The best pedal is no pedal and that goes for guitar too.

Trooooooooooooooooll

You do realize that you just broke pretty much the only non-commercial rule on the effects forum past "don't be a dick"?

Well done mate! AND YOU TRIED TO DEFEND your trolling saying it was your opinion so! WOW!

Just because I have a favorite pedal doesn't mean I use it

For years it was the TC Chorus/Flanger+, but once I stepped into AnalogMan territory with the Bi-Comp, my priorities (and tone) changed.

Not "If you could only have one pedal what would it be", I don't want a bunch of preamps/tuners (not that those are off limits though), but whats the pedal that whenever you click it on you just think "damn, that sounds great."

I think for me right now it would either be my grey stache or my EQD Dispatch Master.

I use a Line 6 Bass Floor Pod. It gives my a good combination of "mojo" and sounds great through my GK 1001 RB classic.

There are better individual pedals, but if I could only have one box on the floor it would be the Zoom B3.

This is a joke...right?

For the last year or so it's been my Diamond BCP-1 Compressor. Absolutely love that pedal. Just got a FEA DE-CL which is fantastic (and growing on me)but will it dethrone the Diamond? Honorable mention; Aguilar Octamizer.

My FEA Opti-Fet dethroned my Diamond. I still can't quite bring myself to sell it though. Just not quite. But I am getting closer.

Radial Bassbone all the way!

Zoom B3. The Swiss Army Knife of pedals. Does 80% of the job for 80% of the different types of pedals...

Fairfield Randy's Revenge. It always does something good.

I wasn't going to check out this thread, I only came because I knew someone would post this kind of nonsense.

Congrats for being that guy.

I still like the fairfield unpleasant surprise.

My Diamond Compressor BCP-1. I just picked it up a week ago, and so far I'm very impressed.

I also really dig my Barber Linden, which I currently use when I plug into my computer setup—it really warms up and fattens the tone... and it's so clean!
