This is an interesting thread! I'm enjoying reading these varying opinions. Best 2015 purchase for me-I'm gonna go with Digitech Drop. Worst-maybe Nine Of Swords Headache. Not quite as in to it as I thought I'd be. It's the first fuzz I've tried that I feel sounds a lot better if you place a buffer before it, but on its own it's kinda meh

Do trades count? if so

Best: MASF Possessed- Had a Hexe Revolver II was way too much for how I was using it, Possessed actually challenges me.
Runner Up: EHX Superego-had one sold it and after awhile missed it so I snagged another will never let it go again!
Worst: Boomerang 3- Way too much info for me :no: I'm perfectly happy with my DittoX2 and seriously if you need to have that much
control over your looping I feel you lose concentration on playing.

Best pedal of the year: CT5 don't have one myself but everytime I've tried to snag one I've been too late, gotta Red Panda Particle on the way could bump the
Possessed as best of this year.

Best Purchase: Hexe Revolver DT - some great changes to the reVolver II - and a couple of indispensable modes makes this my pick.
Worst Purchase: Catalinbread Echorec. I didn't buy it, but having heard everybody shit their pants about how fucking sweet it is - I spent an hour with it, and it just sounded like complete ass. Just wobbly and crappy sounding - I kept asking the guy if it was broken. Also the one I played didn't have a rotary when it switch modes.

Best Pedal of the Year: Korg Miku Stomp. I'm serious.

Worst: Devi GodZilla - Great sounding pedal. Shitty sounding builder.

Biggest surprise: RRR - Traded for it just to get rid of the GodZilla. It was better sounding and more useful than I expected. Sometimes, I regret selling it and contemplate getting another.
Shitty sounding builder? im confused you dont like it because of Devi herself? :-S
Im not back. Im just front
