Oh here's a good one: The original PDF-1 looks so, so much better than the current version, even though the current version is arguably more useful:

The first one is so classy and stylish. Nothing about it calls for more childish fonts. Yet that is what they decided on.

I still love the first version (and on an unrelated note miss the pedal itself) and hated the V2 when I first saw it. But it's really grown on me... :erm:

Oh so true. They make some neat stuff but I dislike the rest of their designs.

McBess is to blame (partially) on the revamped Stone Deaf graphics, though I don't feel as sour as some of yous :trippy:

I do wish they would go back to bigger & sturdier boxes, as the scaled-down versions aren't as physically robust as the original wedges, a la this hello sailor rat...

Overall I like the first one better but its mainly cuz of the knobs. But honestly the font game is weak af on that one. You gotta be a masochist to use a decorative script on text that small.
