Welcome Adoom.
If you haven't completely written off the silver rose, devi is doing a deal of sorts...you get the silver rose+a hyperion+a shirt for the price she was charging before.

It's cool that this thread is still going, interesting reads.
I'll do up a partial list of my fuzz history for the first half of 2011 so I can contribute something to this thread

That is interesting. That $400 option looks interesting. I'll give it a think. Thanks dude!

I tried to start a list of all the distortion pedals I've had too...

I've owned way more crappy distortion + OD pedals than great fuzz or OD pedals. Glad that's changed!

[Holy Schnikes]

I've picked up quite a few this year, trying to chill a bit lately.

As for the ultimate, ever-growing badass pedal collection, univalve's your man!

Great stacking pedal?

it's ok.. but.. story goes like this...
I got one [#45], loved it so I got another for backup [#47] and to use in another rig, at the time I was using it in a barge blending loop with a bbe sonic stomp to get my fuzz sound... then I tried a bunch of other pedals... got frustrated because nothing was really getting the sound I wanted so I got a third [#100] with thoughts of modding/having modded with a blend and a eq/tone... then I finally found out who was selling Katana Sound in the US and ordered the Super Bass Fuzz which gets the sound in my head Then #2 came up on ebay for cheap Then MLC sent me the EA so I sent him #47 [which I never ended up using...] and a DOD Octoplus...

also... i will try and do an actual list today. that cop out a page or two back in unacceptable...

First my girlfriend bought me this for my birthday the first year we were together. (Oliver's in her favorite band ever so it was all cute and stuff)


Then I picked up this guy


Then got Dissss one With Torn's Peaker and Noise Floor ZG (bright)


Then I got one of These Great Destroyers but didn't go too well with my bass or guitar rig so I traded it (top right)


For The 3xFx Fatman V2 And used it as my primary bass fuzz


Then I added a Test Pattern to the arsenal


having satisfied my hunger fer fucked up noises. I decided I need less crazy dirt so I got both of these recently and and now sufficiently depressed at just how much money I've spent on this shit in the last year.
Blackout Effectors Mantra Overdrive

Smallsound/Bigsound Fuck Overdrive



When you lay it all out like that. I realize how fucked up I really am. I need help.

[Holy Schnikes]

You son of a bitch, I wanted that FUCK SO BAD! COOLEST FINISH EVER!! The LED placement is genius. Actually, thank you as I would've been buying a second Fuck due to the allure of that sexy ass finish which is both illogical and irresponsible on my part. Still....

PM me if you're crazy enough to let in go one day, please let it go.

Congrats on the super cool collection!

Thanks, pretty much if anything came in a limited edition color or graphic and was under 250 dollars. I jumped this year... a very dumb way to go about things.

but now when I get hooked on junk in an alley way I have tons of heroin fodder.

Ohhhh this so much. This is pretty much what I'm attributing most of my acquisitions to this year.
Damn ILF and its fair prices for awesome one-offs.
