Echoplex pre: cool, might want it.
Bass pre Pedal: want for sure
Havalina fuzz: will try, might be cool.
Fet driver: was always interested but the bonamassa One was here about 230 EUR. If the white One is cheaper, i'm gonna Check it Out.
Swollen pickle: i'm the only one here, that likes it? I think it is a stupid Name (like dr. Scientist hahaha) but with the graphic makes that gross concept cool imho. So now i will finally buy One.

Well I think it's ugly as sin but I like the control redesign and it's a good sounding circuit.

Have you ever tried designing a pedal?
Have you ever tried it ... ON WEED?
the Echoplex pre and Univibe have a great look... to bad all MXRs look bland as fuck and Way Huge apparently got high and messed up the party... wish all of their companies had the same good aesthetics as the mother goose

MEH...MSRP: $171.41 which means around $100 new.
Also, those screws on top don't appear to be doing anything other than holding the face plate on.
At first look, I thought they had turned the enclosure upside down but I guess not.

Yeah I just meant it's a great place to collect cat hair and spilt beer and dirt and stuff... I like it still but top screws are dumb, I'm looking at you Trogotronic...

Necro-bumping cuz I was thinking of getting either the dunlop or the exotic (probably the latter) to stick in front of my microvibe, as it gets lost when run into my heavy fuzz. I tried the clean boost of my fz2 before it when I ran it into my ape blaster the other day and it sounded awesome, except I will be employing the fz2 for my main fuzz.
Was thinking also of the black eye boost, seems to be in a similar ball park.
What do you guys think I'd be best off with (price is a factor)?

You could try the Henretta one, Emerald Prince I think?
From what I read people seem to dig it more than the other ones you mention, it's reasonably priced and the dude is right here on the forum.

I can vouch for Kevin (Henretta) being rad.

Thank you! Forum members, both here and The Gear Page, should always contact me if interested in one of my products. I sell through dealers, but I always have everything up on Reverb.com (some of my dealers do too) and will always entertain reasonable offers, especially from forum friends who I have directed there.

Cool thanks duders!
Sorry, Kevin, I'm fairly ignorant when it comes to these type of peds, as I've never had need of one before. Was unaware of it until Tristan pointed it out.
Definitely checking it out now.

Hey, man. No need to apologize. I was pretty ignorant of these types of circuits too until a customer asked me to do the Echoplex preamp in a custom little box for him. Now I get it. I have one on my board that I keep always on, and I'm among the pickiest of players when it comes to gear.

After YouTube demo shootout I would have to concur, yours sounds the best.
Also, no knobs, tiny box.
Fucking winning.
Expect a pm from me when I have money someday.
