Bar none, the best Overdrive pedal on the market presently and in the past. If you are looking for proof of this all you have to do is search "Tubescreamer users" and you will find everyone from SRV to Nashville power houses. The tubescreamer can and will do everything from clean boost to straight up hard driving cranked tube amp tones. Very reliable and very affordable.
The Meatboy is a great fuzz box that is capable of being used live without buzzing and squealing to the point where the sound guy demands it gone from his stage. It can be dialed in to be predictable or it's one knob can push the pedal into some seriously broken amplifier tones. Very nice priced and hand made, you can't beat it for classic FUZZ!
This is not a "no-frills" simple reverb pedal.. The 4 knobs have alot more in store than simply what they are labeled as... Check youtube for review videos, I've got a feeling you just found your new reverb pedal!
The Pitchfork is a great Octave up/down ocatve pedal, although the octave down has very noticeable latency issues (with that said you can get some cool cello like effects out of it). If you are looking for Whammy style effects then stick with the Whammy, this is not a good alternative as you will not find that signature "Whammy" tone and nuance.
This is a great pedal for a distortion effect rather than a good sounding drive pedal. Ministry or NIN covers? This is your guy! Look for serious distortion in the HM-2, RAT or even a modded DS-1
I'll start by saying that I own the first issue of this pedal (first in the line of 3 shown as examples) and I'll second by saying you need one. If you keep it clean, as to keep the switch from failing, and don't try to powerbomb it through your pedal board it'll last a lifetime. The chorus here is very rich at low speed and mid depth settings and at 3/4 rate and full on depth you get some very cool Leslie style effects going! Stereo output requires the use of a stereo male 1/4 cable to either two mono 1/4 male ends or another stereo male 1/4 depending on application
The Warlock is one of the few "pointy" guitars that you can sit on the couch and chill with. They have their own tone and their vibe totally, you can be yourself with it or be someone completely different ;) Usually well made and they come in just about any configuration you could think of from Floyd Rose and Humbuckers all the way to a simple wrap around tailpiece and a single coil.
This thing has a ton of features, everything from old fender reverb unit sounds to newer age "space" (shimmer) reverb. It's cheap enough to grab just to have in your gig bag for those open mic nights to ensure you always have reverb! Get it.
For a solid year and 4 months I have had this either on my touring board or IN my gig bag ready for the hotel room. It was a Christmas present "stocking stuffer" that my wife ordered on Amazon kind of last minute and I absolutely love it. The ability to go from straight up "RATISH" distortion to a very cool lower gain, mid scooped (thanks to the mid scooping switch on it) Octave up weirdo sound is awesome. You have the ability to turn the octave effect on and off while the gain is turned on so getting on planet Smashing Pumpkins isn't hard. BUY IT. It's worth its penny in the pocket price tag
Durable, cool sounds and not alot of money.. Grab it up before they cost a mint
There isn't another pic on the entire planet.. need it lighter? just loosen your hold on it.. Need it heavier? Choke up and hold firm! It's not going anywhere with the texture.. Again, there isn't another pic on the planet
Sturdy and yet not to heavy with a great sound! You can actually dial in a very nice Flange for Classic Rock all the way to Raggae
