Members jkg Posted April 22, 2006 Members Share Posted April 22, 2006 Danelectro cool cat: sterile chorus Boss cs3: ugh!!! Boss Ce5: I don't know...just didn't like it. Boss Ds1, Metal zone, Hyper metal, fuzz: Horrible. Danelectro Hash browns (flanger): Sterile. Ibanez tremolo from the 5 series: even the tuna melt from danelectro is better than it. DOD tuna (don't remember the name or model): it was a tuner pedal, worthless POS. Some of those were some of my first pedals, except for the danelectro's.

Members we_are_responsible Posted April 22, 2006 Members Share Posted April 22, 2006 Boss GT-3. "I know: I'll replace all my cool old pedals with this one shiny modern pedal that does everything!"

Members 4Kenoath Posted April 22, 2006 Members Share Posted April 22, 2006 Boss TU-2: high end suckage, innacurate tuning, difficult tracking and holding notes.Morely Wah-sp: utter {censored}e on every level. Very poor construction, sounded aweful. Will never buy a Morely again!Carl Martin Delayla (original): very nice pedal, but I just don't use it and it cost me a fortune, so that buy was lamentable.

Members thebazaar Posted April 22, 2006 Members Share Posted April 22, 2006 Dunlop crybaby. i shouldnt complain. i wouldnt know the wonders of a TB wah if not for this one and trading my frantone vibutron for a mini-Bicomp. the comp was nice, but losing it in the mail begs the question as to why i traded the nicest trem ive ever played...I was taught a lesson by the gear slut gods that day...

Members t_e_l_e Posted April 22, 2006 Members Share Posted April 22, 2006 i never regret so far any pedal i bought. but i have to say that i have 15 pedals by now, and none of them is a boss pedal. i don't want to bash them, but i think they are not for me. i tried the ds-1 one, eeeehh, the phaser is really weak comperad to the ibanez pm-7 or the byoc phase 90. the bd-2 might be cool, but i like my ts-9 and the bad monkey is cheaper and does a great job. delay and chorus wise i never tried one so far.

Ouch.Are you sure it was actually mailed? I've never had a pedal go missing in the mail yet...after many years and lots of pedals. Seems more likely that it wasn't even sent if the source wasn't one you knew well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members plinky Posted April 22, 2006 Members Share Posted April 22, 2006 Zoom 606. It wasn't that bad really, but now I find that I prefer single pedals to a multi effects unit I wish I hadn't bought it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I though this too when a Clone Theory I bought through ebay never arrived. That is, that the seller never sent it and concocted the 'lost in the mail' story so he could relist it and hopefully get a better price. Then about a year after the event the guy emails me to see if it ever arrived. I don't see why he would have bothered to do that unless it truly did get lost in the mail (or he was some freak who began to believe his own lies were truth).

Members Rob Eadgbe Posted April 23, 2006 Members Share Posted April 23, 2006 After playing a Two Knob Tonebender clone that valvedriventone leant me, I started gassing for one. I traded my Rat2 for a BYOC two knob Tonebender clone. Turns out the one that valvey had was modded, and mine sounded nowhere near as good as his. I've since found that there's nothing wrong with mine, they just sound that way. I also bought a Zoom 505 and brought it back the second the store opened the next day.

Members ollenorin Posted April 23, 2006 Members Share Posted April 23, 2006 Originally posted by MrSage I don't regret purchasing any pedals. I usually buy a pedal because I've been gassing for it for a long time, and when I finally get it, the GAS dissipates. Sometimes I don't like a pedal, in which case I sell it. But it's always good to have tried it...then I don't continue to lust after a bad pedal. +1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members murch33 Posted April 23, 2006 Members Share Posted April 23, 2006 The only thing that really comes close to a regret for me would be the DL-4. And not because it didn't sound good, it's just that there was so much hype around that pedal that I couldn't help but be somewhat disappointed. I already owned a DD-20 when I bought the DL-4, so the only real use I had for it was looping. It's really a nice pedal, though. It's one of those that I'll quite possibly buy again if I find a good enough deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
