I always thought they were cool, haha... Bump that up to 169! (I guess my opnion doesn't count for much... I like shit to be as cheesy as possible.)
I've always wanted to use one of those GK pickups for other MIDI doodads... In my own (small amount of) experience, circuit bending around MIDI tone-generator data chips (whatever holds the ROM in keyboards) gets crazy results... I probably wouldn't want to bend the unit itself... but other bent stuff/samplers w/ MIDI inputs would be a lot of fun.

Mine's my Crybaby. A bog-standard Crybaby. No true bypass or owt like that.
Love wah pedals and have had loads from really old Morley's to new Boss one's, but I have always kept my old Crybaby no matter what.

a DOD 'hard rock distortion' which has a built in (but way too short) analog delay...like i'm really going to get around to modding it into something cool one day.

Just got this one today.
rolls off the high end and is just fun.
Only 200 ms delay, but it came with the original power supply.
MM

I've got 2 craptastic pedals on my board that I've had forever and just can't seem to replace.
A DOD FX75-B Stereo Flanger:

The trim pot is tweaked so there's crazy flanging cascading into
gross bit crushing. A powerhouse in a feedback loop.
And a Ibanez Sountank DL5 Digital Delay:

It's a decent little 400 ms delay that I use mostly with synth and noise freak-outs. I have an EHX Stereo MM w/ Hazarai to take care of everything else.

Oh mah gawd - I think the guitar player from my first college band had that same DOD flanger... as I recall, for all of their craptasticalness, most of those DODs could be pushed to some potentially cool extremes...

Cool, I just snagged one of these off ebay for 30 shipped. Can't wait to mess with the trim pot.
