Just saw the Dirty Doper is getting it's curtain call.

And I was wondering what other cool things are out there floating in the ether that we use that aren't exactly collector's piece unobtanium (although you can totally post your pre-CBS Fender or your spotless Model T if you want and I will show the standard, token gear-forum envy) but are nevertheless difficult to replace.

I'd say the Doper qualifies as that, for me, for sure. Easily one of the most inspiring distortion/sound generator/noise boxes I've ever played.

Totally agree on the Doper. About the only pedal that never goes into storage. I love that pedal.

Yup. Can't say it better.

Maybe the LAL 87 or 86. Yamaha SGV300.

Hahaha, I'm both sorry & not sorry about axing the doper.

I have it on my mind to maybe retool the circuit (but it's a low priority), but as it is it's such a clusterfuck to build I have to retrain myself every go around. It's just not sustainable in its current form, and I feel like consistency is all over the place.

There's more stuff on the horizon, and I do plan on upping the insanity on a few things. The future is bright. The doper, however, is overdue for a stint in rehab. Happy trails.

Ampeg Sub Blaster suboctave. y'know how the meatbox came back out of nowhere because some influential cats started hyping it? That's my prediction for the future of the Sub Blaster. It is undeniably the best analog sub octave pedal I've ever played, and really the best suboctave period for my money. I feel like I need to buy like 11 of them so I'll never be without that deep delicious goodness.

hope I can get back in on the doper before it's gone.. definitely one of the gnarliest boxes I've ever used.


does the infinitphase count? cause apparently it's a bitch to even get them direct >_<

I feel this way about Mellowtone stuff. Every time they come up they're hyper cheap and I'm always in love with the pedals when I get them.

Eric is building again, though. Small batches, but relatively easy to snag. Seems like he's going to pick up speed this year!

And yeah, the 86 are few and far between, holding firmly on to mine. Still need to get that unobtainium 87, though.

Yea I'm excited to see what he comes up with! I didn't have money two weeks ago when two Singing Trees popped up, hope I can snag one or he makes them again.

But I use my Wolf Computer, Melx2, and CC/DC all regularly now.

I'd also throw the Digitech Timebender in this category. Fuck that thing is never leaving my hands.

the zeibek submarine is on the list. SOunds like Oz is a douche, but I like my sub.

i wish rozzbox v2 was still out there.

Right now I can't find a single Infanem second voice / deluxe or harmony synth anywhere. Maybe those will go up in price now? (Please no)

oh my, that's some vintage TB drama. Brings me back.

I'm a huge DBA Kill Kill Filter fan.

No real value, harsh clipping sound and a nice tone knob to leave always on.
