Electric Guitars

[PurpleTrails]

Boss ME-30 multieffect, which is pretty much a POS tone-sucker with about a third of the presets producing completely unusable tones.

First single pedal was an MXR Distortion+.

[kayd_mon]

The Korg G1 distortion board. Four pedals, nine distortions (well six, really) and a bit of echo. My first single pedal was a Boss phaser. I still have both of these, and I don't always hold on to pedals.

[BryanMichael]

MXR 2000 series Distortion +

(circa 1981-82 when I got it...)

[Tool Shedd]

I don't remember which came first. It was either a PAiA Axe Grinder kit that my Dad helped me build....


Or a Dynacord Echocord...

[steve_man]

Dano Cool Cat Chorus...  weighed a metric ton, but sounded great!

[DaleH]

Bad Monkey then Fish N Chips. That's all I have got.

[WhatDoIKnow]

An Akai Overdrive.  Back in December for ~$19.

[noisebloom]

It was either an MXR Phase 90 or an Echoplex. It may have been the Echoplex, because I got it really cheap, and even then I got ripped off, because I could never get the **bleep** thing to work.

Rocktek overdrive pedal. At the time I thought it was a steal... Still have it just for the nostalgia

[twisty571]

A Bad Monkey as suggested by this forum when I 1st joined. I thought I didn't like it but honestly I didn't give it a chance or I did but was using with the wrong kind of amp,I had a clean amp with no gain to it.

[seibertdr]

Boss DS-1 and Boss Flanger. Bought in Atlanta in 1981.

[aj_guitarist]

Boss SD-1 - Still have it.

Before then i got given a marshall shredmaster (one of the greatest pedals ever made) and a BOSS CS-4.

[pathofspirit]

A fuzz box from Gracins in NY.

[billythegoat]

The DOD Grunge!!

[Bolan]

Ibanez Soundtank Powerlead. I still have it somewhere. I honestly used it more for the crunchy tone it had for rhythm than for soloing. When I bought a new amp, I made sure it sounded like that pedal.

The first pedal I got was a Rocktek Compressor in the late '90s. I still have it

I bought 120 of them on my first puchase! I thought I might as well get them all in one package.

When I bought my first guitar (second-hand), part of the deal was a bunch of pedals the seller wanted to get rid of. They were Boss HM-2, Boss BF-2, Boss CS-1 and Ibanez OD2. I mostly used the Boss HM-2 ... hey, back then, I was a kid in the 80ies. 

[dcooper830]

My first pedal....  my dad bought it for me in 1982 when I was 12...

Foxx Fuzz Wah and Volume!!
