I've never seen the Shift Daddy ever, I wish those were actual wheels on the bottom, would be hilarious to watch people fall on their ass every time they try to rip a wah solo. (it IS a wah right?)

And the DE7 should get a pass for sounding pretty decent for what it costs, isn't much uglier than any Boss out there IMO.

as a fan of the 10 series I don't get why this is so bad.

Visual sound on the other hand, I don't even understand the shape? What advantage is their on the pointy end?

The original ones Just looked like a knobby home plate, now they are just terrible.

Can't find a picture of it but that new EHX tattoo thing looks and is stupid~!

looks like some kind of food blender or kitchen scales:

wide blank space and then some kind of squashed up crowded knobs at the top:

the whole range just so so boring, imagine having a whole pedal board full of these things:
Image

looks like some kind of budget marshmellow packet

totally surprised i can remember this, but the ibanez phaser with that housing was one of my first three pedals back in like 1996. thought it was pretty cool back then. pretty sure the other two were a tech 21 XXL distortion and an arion stereo chorus (actually still have those two).

Thats pretty funny b/c around 96' or so I got my first as well, the delay in that very series.
I loved it and actually used it live many times. Its gone now, but I will remember it like a first girlfriend.
