Your KEEPER pedals!

[tuffteef]

the only one thats survived all these years is my loveclone meatball

[starcastic]

I have an odd collection of boring keepers. Just shit I've had forever and still play all the time. A lot of "boutique" pedals just come and go compared to these which have never left my board.

Digitech Whammy Re-Ish
MXR Micro Amp
Ibanez DL5 Delay
Electro Harmonix Nano Small Stone
DOD FX-75B Stereo Flanger

Newer keepers:

EQD Dirt Transmitter
Line 6 FM4 & DL4
EHX Ring Thing

Everything on my board

Yeah, I believe that's because some of these are simply too boring to have good enough exchange rate to get to the circulation

[dubkitty]

sometimes it's the boring stuff that just works. everybody goes "meh" at the Distortion+, but i'm telling you, it's my Swiss Army Knife. i couldn't have spent more than $35 for it used back c. 1983, and it's more pivotal to my sound than all the $100-$250+ fuzzes i've bought since. i really should find a second one for backup, in fact.

Real talk.

I have a little collection of 70´s pedals that have been with me for a while and have way a lot more sentimental value than monetary...

boss- dm-2/ pn2
EH- IC muff/ bass micro synth (see my avatar)
mxr- distortion+ / phase 90

Ive seen some love here for early mxr .



Hope I can pass them to my kid soon..

Other than my board, I've got some random things I don't see myself selling like melx2, metal master, ptp LPB2, walco fuzzrite. I suppose the dirt section of my board is really the keepers...all the delay/mod is still commonly available, not that id want to have to get them again.

I love some of the old MXR stuff. Been hunting half-heartedly for a Micro Amp and a script Dist+ for a while
This is my trio: 1974 Dynacomp, 1978 DynaComp (true bypassd + AC tap), and a 1974 Phase 90.

[masked elwood]

let's see.....i seem to keep everything that i like the sound of.....but things that have survived the test of time on live gigs are:

cry baby or vox wha
foxx tone machine
maestro brassmaster
tech 21 XXL
guyatone wr3
ep-3 echoplex
mutron octave divider or boss oc2

I totally agree. I had a newer version, and I thought it sounded great. I've been on the hunt for a good deal on a vintage D+. Once that happens it will be added to my "Keeper Pedals" list.

[lizardville]

the distortion+ is sooo underrated, I cant believe most of the clones out there sell way more expensive than the originals.

That trio you have there devnulljp, you got me drooling...

[jskadiang]

Skreddy Echo. Longest surviving pedal on my board by far. Get one, everybody!

[devnulljp]

Gottem!



That microamp into the AC30 is killer.

My Devi Jay Fuji Custom Twin. Torn's Peaker is just too rad and the Noise Floor ZG(bright) is I think the only variation of that particular circuit ever built.

My DBA Super Sonic Fuzz Gun. Not because it's really my best fuzz but because it was my birthday present the first year I was with my girlfriend. She actually introduced me to APTBS and for that I knew she was a keeper
