Worst pedal is also my best pedal.....SIB varidrive. Sounds awesome.... But I have to replace the tube in it every 3-4 months, It is non battery powered and uses an amp style power cord, adn I have had to take it in and get it cleaned up 2x in the last 18 months. (it is the first run of that pedal series so it is getting older.....) But I love the sound of it... Put a tele in front of it and my Super Reverb behind it, and go to town.

The worst pedal I have is probably my DS-2, which, although I haven't used in a while, I still think is a fairly good pedal for what I wanted.

The chorus is pretty good. I meant "DS-2>Icepick Chorus" in a "DS-2 going into Icepick Chorus" sense.

I thought you were ragging on the DOD chorus, since it's Icebox..

Ha. Right 'nuff. Funny. I'd never noticed. I always did think Icepick was an entirely inappropriate name for a chorus pedal. Well then, there you go.

You've bumped (another) ancient thread. This one is six years in the ground, and by fucking Aphasiac, of all people. Maybe stop it, eh?

I bought one of those fender pedals they brought out a couple of years ago. Was allegedly a flanger but it was actually a paper weight made the same difference to my tone whether it was on or off... fuck all nothing on it worked total piece of shit.

Or as the website I bought it from would have you believe "it's a very subtle flanging effect"

ibanez thrashmetal. All highs high gain wannabe dirty box of shit. It was my first. The ds-1 was heaven to my ears after that thrashmetal pedal. I also had a grunge oedal that sounded like a bag of bleeding dicks

My Electro-Harmonix "Deluxe Polychorus" not because it's shitty, but because it's broken and the cost of repairing it would be the same as buying a replacement. I loved that pedal! :cry:
