I...still have all of these!
I'm not actually using any of them but the Disaster Transport right now, but I don't feel any need to get rid of the others. I'll add the mini Fuck and Hall of Fame to the list.

I've come to realize that there are pedals that I've gotten rid of that I'd like to get again, and in my book those are keepers:
Prunes & Custard
Monarch
Big Spider

just.
I got the ECT and it doesn't stack with the ECT like it does with my muff. I was kind of stupid, but I got 2 pedals that are staying on my board out of it. I'll just have to pick up another I suppose
I've got a Rusty Box coming in the mail, I'm going to try to use it in the same way that I did the Monarch

That should work, someday you will get another
Can't believe it didn't play nice with the ECT, that is a first

At first it was sentimental these were my first decent pedals, but I have tried to replace them to spare them abuse and they just won't go away.
Probably would never sell....
Mastotron
Tone Reaper
Fuzz Probe
At least one muff GGG-rams head comes to mind
other than that everything seems expendable
I didn't do very well with this
Mastotron,Fuzz Probe are both gone
Still kicking myself over the probe

Yeah, seems like the Monarch was cutting some of the immense bass coming from the ECT (which is weird, because my Muff has just as much bass)
I'm hoping that the Rusty Box, being bass-oriented, will not cut anything regardless of the pedal used

Should work well,
I used to do something similar with an MXR bass DI
I am adding the following to my list of keeper pedals
Subdecay Echobox
Monarch
RV-5
Fuzz War
may try to take 2013 off from gear
Tried it in 2012 and did OK for a few months

Hmmmmm Keeper pedals eh?
Well I'm satisfied beyond belief with my Guitar board (I havent had guitar pedal GAS in months) so:
BAT Burial Chamber
DR. Sci The Elements
Strymon Timeline W/ DMC-3
Eventide Space w/ T1m ED3
Dunwich clean/250hz boost
And on my bass board after much trial and error I went back to what i knew was what i wanted so these are my keepers:
Monolith Tectonic Shift (fuck all his BS, but this thing is amazing)
EBA Supercollider v2 (my second one)
Verellen Big Spider (my third one)
Hopefully once my Dunwich preamp / DI will be a keeper and I can sleep easy at night w/ no gas again.

I've kind of gotten over the whole 'big amps' thing, no matter how awesome it is to stand in front of a wall of amps or a full stack. In the context of my house, my little 20 watt tube head through my 1x12 is plenty loud, loud enough to compare to a full stack on stage or in a larger environment.
Plus, the space gained and the money earned are two positives as well- with the other half of the money from my Sunn (after paying the Verellen off) I bought a pre-lit 6' Christmas tree, tree skirt, 2 sizes of plates, bowls, and some other things and STILL have money left!
Think I might end up making a Prunes and Custard. I've seen the schematics floating around somewhere. Would probably save me a good $100. I just love that splattery overdrive sound clean blended under my signal. Its so interesting
