Digitech Buzz Box (Multi-Band Fuzz manipulator---discontinued in the 80's but still available used))

Boss Slicer Pedal (new) controls rhythmic slicing of any kind of sound with tons of stereo panning options.

Alesis Ampliton (dual tremelo/panning device where you can control the separate rates of each side of the box.............discontinued
but available used)

Devi Ever Eye of God (a feedback loop.............you send the signal into any other effect and back into the Eye of God and
it creates a feedback loop who's intensity can be controlled by a photo cell..........the more you darken the cell,
the more intense the feedback................provides hard to control effects with virtually every type of stomp box pedal)

Digitech DF-7 Distortion Factory (different digital modellings of the most famous of distortions/fuzzes/overdrive and feedback pedals)

Boss OD-20 (also different digital models of famous distortion boxes but with 4 programmable presets and an Octave Fuzz
that makes a single string on a guitar sound like Godzilla stepped on the face of the earth)

Boss Intellishifter with Expression Pedal (a wonderful pitch shifter which, when used in conjunction with an extra Expression Pedal
can turn any sustained sound into a 'virtual theremin' I wish I owned two of them

Digitech Red Whammy (a noisy, noisy, terrible bandwidth, low fidelity pedal that , nonetheless, does beautiful pitch manpulation
with an onboard whammy pedal..........................they made three versions of this thing..........the original
is the only one worth owning imho..............it's noiser but more musical than the others.

Digitech Vocal 300 (again, a very noisy pedal but it has multiple effects with an onboard expression pedal.............I just hear
an experimental pianist use one of these with a first generation Korg Kaoss Pad. it was BEAUTIFUL!!!!)

Ibanez Demon Wah (recommended as the wah pedal that had the most manipulation of frequency of all wah wah pedals.
I use this, thanks to wonderful guitarist and footpedal expert, Mike Biffle aka Miko B. only to gently
change the timbre of other effected sounds.

Zvex Fuzz Factory (really radical fuzz box that has built in and controllable noise gating, compression and comb filtering
there's a universe in this box......................buy the one's made in Thailand which are a hundred bucks
cheaper than the hand made ones in the US................and they sound identical.

Electro Harmonix Micro POG (my latest aquisition, a polyoctave generator that introduces a synthetic signal
that accurately reads chords and introduces either or both one octave down or one octave up
In conjuntion with my new Bass Micro Muff by Electro Harmonix, this makes a fat, fat, fat distorted
bass sound out of almost anything.

DL-4 Digital Delay Modeller (a fantastic live looping pedal.............one that changed my life........................you rarely see them
used, though thousands are owned.....................why? Because noone parts with them
once they've tried them...................Still available new)

This latter would be the single pedal I'd take to a desert island if I were allowed one guitar, one battery powered amp, one stomp box pedal
and an unlimited supply of batteries (yeah, that completely plausible scenario......................lol)

I'm in love with disortion right now, so if you'd asked me a year ago, my list would have been really different.

You can't go wrong with a Boss Chorus, a Dan Electro Chili Dog (Octaver and sub Octave pitch shifter)
any number of Boss digital delays, Boss Flangers, a ProCo Rat (distortion), an Electro Harmonix Big Muff (distortion)
damn near anything by Electro Harmonix, Devi Ever............etc,.

well, i have a boss gt-8, so i have a lot of effects that i can use..
but let's assume that i could ONLY have one..
just for $hits and giggles..

it have to be the WAH..
and the nu-metal variety..
i've used a wah all of my life..
but what i like about new WAH sounds is you can really really alter your tone in the middle of a solo..
not just flip the thing up and down with your foot..
but you can just leave it in one space and change the complete tone of that solo..

personally, i really dig that..
