Your first ever pedal ?
Mine:
Still have it and wont sell it ever, only worth a few pence now anyways. Still like it for what it is.
I think it came from Grotts Guitars in Newcastle back in the day. Think it was the same day the owners were out of their tree on whatever and offered a Flying V for a stupid small sum. I remember my Dad talking about that a few times. Quite a few years later I bartered on a Jagstang for £250 which was a great deal too.
Miss those days.

mine was my DD-3, got it when i was 15 from a shop in london. a guy behind the counter in one of the shops we visited tried to pick a fight with me for some reason because i didn't know the respective definitions of echo and delay. i wonder if he ever made a connection between that incident and his front window getting caved in the following week.

I expect a lot of DS-1 posts here as y'all fucking KurdtZ kids.
Mine was a Cruze Flanger. Cruze were like Daphon or something back in the day, plastic pedals based on Boss but with terrible bypass. I bought a Flanger because I thought it was weird and had read somewhere that Robert Smith and The Chameleons used them. About the same time I bought an old Carlsbro Echo Unit which was larger than an Orange TT, that was actually decent, but the Flanger got lost after being spray painted bottle green with Halfords left overs we had used on a BMX

Got it used in probably 1998, maybe 1997 (missing the knobs), still using it.

Vox wah, was a massive Hendrix fan in the earliest days of my guitar playing and the intro to voodoo chile was one of the first things I ever learned/practiced on guitar so it became necessary. Especially after I saw this pic.
In my first band I painted all the lettering/knob pointers/switches on all my pedals with glow in the dark paint so I could see the board better onstage... still love seeing the green alien VOX logo looking at me when I get up to take a piss in the middle of the night.
