Had mine for 11 years now.
I got one of these in 2007 for my first good guitar. Mine is modded out the wazoo at this point but that doesn't change the fact that they are good. I would say that they are too expensive these days however.

Not quite my thing
I find that the output on this is backed off just a smidge too much for my liking. If you play prog or prog metal with lots of big chords you'Il probably like it but if you chug a ton like me you might not. One thing I will say is that these split really well. It sounds just like Tosin's single coil tones in my opinion. I like it other than the output issue. I have this in the bridge of my Ibanez RG752 7 string if you are wondering.

My neck pickup for prog.
Just like the title says, this is my favourite neck pickup for prog type stuff. I have it in my Ibanez RG752 7 string. I find it really musical with a modern flavour but without having the typical modern neck pickup tone (like a liquifire for example). I like how it doesn't have that tube-y type lead tone like an EMG 85 or something. The clean on this thing is amazing as well. I would say that this is the only neck pickup I've used that can get a passable jazz tone imho.

Cool Effect
I rescued one of these from a heap of used gear at a guitar store awhile back. I wasn't sure what it did at the time but I'm glad I've got one. I think its a great alternative to the rotovibe pedal that Dunlop makes because you can control the speed of the vibe in real time with the sweep of the pedal.

Love it.
I really love this pedal. I can't say how it compares against an actual HM2 since I've never tried one but I can say that I don't feel the need to buy one since I have this. I like this better than the TC Eyemaster, which I have tried. I think that the Swede is noticeably more defined than the eye master, which is more fuzzy in my opinion.

Good but less than great.
If you really want that Boss HM2 tone this will get it for you at a great price. I think that for more money there are better options though. I say this cos I also have a BYOC the Swede pedal and I think the swede sounds a lot more defined. Since I only need one HM2 clone I took the eye master back. But if I ever lost my Swede pedal I'd probably just buy an eye master.

Works well and is affordable.
I needed a second noise gate for my metal pedal board and didn't have much money to spend so I got this. It's not exactly perfect but I am very content with it. If I were to compare it to other it to other gate pedals I've used I'd say that it is not quite as fast as the MXR smart gate but it is more transparent than the Boss NS2. The only issue I've had is that when I play clean with it on it will gate the notes as soon as the dip below the threshold which is normal, except that it does this even at the lowest setting. So if you are switching between clean and high gain a lot you will either want to shut it off on clean or save your money for a different gate.

I like it.
Does everything I need. I prefer the sounds on the TC Vortex but that one is much more money. If I could only have one I'd choose the Vortex but if I had to buy all a new flanger this would be the one.

Very good pedal
This is probably my favourite fuzz pedal that i've tried. It is louder and fuzzier than the Way Huge clone. The price is great too. I would have liked it too look more like the original but thats just me.

Good fuzz but expensive.
I like this pedal but I think I like the EHX one more. The EHX is half the price too. This one looks better to me though. Plus it has top mounted jacks which I like.

Top notch stuff
Really good quality. Very pretty too although I'm not the biggest birdseye maple fan. The neck on mine is a little finicky. Might be cos it's only 17mm deep. I can live with that though.
