E-H Screaming Bird treble booster. my God, but that's the most horrid thing i've ever heard a guitar run through. it makes the Ravish Sitar sound like an ARP 2600. i also hate Tube Screamers with the white-hot intensity of a thousand suns, but i could at least find a bearable sound on one. and the E-H Frequency Analyzer was truly bad.

Not the worst ever, but I really didn't dig the DAM Meathead I had
Tone Wicker Muff was returned the next day too.

I’ve had the chance to play through 6 different Meatheads.
2 I really liked the others not so much.
Loved the Dark and one that was made darker than the originals but not as bass heavy as the dark.
The owner won’t part with either which really sucks LOL.
But I play bass so results may vary.

The Screaming bird and Mole had no good sounds in them, and were so flimsy they wouldn’t make a good doorstop, maybe a paperweight

I've owned many bad pedals, but the Zoom 505 takes the damn cake. No real editing options, and almost everything in it sounds like shit.
