Pedals That didn't Work Out For You

If it makes you feel better the BB lasted a lot longer than the Diamond.


I'm too picky with my dirt pedals, if they don't measure up to my Four Speed they're gone.

 

 

i've settled on the 4 for me, and i'll just switch them out for what i need... tim/my, ocd, dls.

 

 

boom.

Toadworks Phantasm. I felt like I was never phasing the entire signal.

Guyatone VT-X Flip Tube Tremolo. Unbearable volume increase.

EHX Pulsar. Could have been a faulty unit, but never got it to get down to zero volume in the valleys.

MXR Flanger reissue. I liked the EVH, got a non-EVH, hated it. What happened?

Barge Concepts BB-1. Selling it now, awesome sounds, versatility, just not for me...?

I'm sure there are many others.

what about the Lovepedal White Dragon? Didn't you sell that one twice (both times I think it was in the spam thread after two weeks or so...)?

I had both of those for awhile and while they both sounded good, they just didn't have the sound I wanted. So yeah... you could add that one to the list I suppose, since they didn't "work" for me.... but I was just trying to think of pedals I really didn't like. I've had too many pedals go through my hands that didn't stick, but fewer that I didn't actually enjoy. I mean, the list of stuff that didn't work is probably a hundred deep or more. :lol:

Also, All flangers and choruses. I've never found one I like, but I love phasers and I rarely find a phaser I don't like. Also, crybaby. Most overrated pedal out there. Morley's wahs are much better and so is the Budda.

oh I didn't realize you had them for awhile, I thought they were put up for sale really quickly.

 

I just remembered one I should add - Digitech Synth Bass - I heard good things about it and I got it really cheap, but I could never get a useable sound out of it.

Two that surprise me on that list are the MI BBDOD, which I haven't tried yet, and the Brown Rabbit. How did they disappoint?

Big Muff (for the most part)

SCOD

Tube Zone (V3, at that)

Dynacomp

mini qtron

ernie ball 6166 (couldn't stand the large footprint on it)

 

Wouldn't mind giving a TS9 another shot, might go for an 808 though.

TS-808 - couldn't put up with the amount of bass cut
Green screamer - better bass than the 808, just didn't sound as good
BOSS ME-50 - just a big tone sucker
DMM - got this one just this week and love the sound, but can't get it overlaod to easily in my effects loop. I noticed allot of others had this one on their list?
