What are your favorite looking pedals?

Post by StevePirates »

I'm a sucker for a good sticker. I really liked the Dwarfcraft Spectacular Aenima, and I really like the EHX Cathedral reverb. What are some of your favorite looking pedals?

Moved from pub as it sits nicely in the effects subforum.

Dwarfcraft always look great. The original shiva and internets are great.

i personally like the old bigass ehx stuff, its so FUCKING BIG!
there was a pedal that roach made, it looked like a 50's car. really fucking cool, it was for a class project or something.

the mu-tron pedals are cool. the old pre-boss roland pedals look cool. and yeah, the big box EHX ones.

I always thought the ibanez 9 series looked cool. the 5 series was awful though, what the hell.

but in the end it doesn't really matter what they look like of course. it can actually be cool if it looks wack but sound cool due to it's sleeper nature.

To be honest, I really like the look of Danelectro pedals, especially the Cool Cat series. They remind me a lot of the Roger Mayer pedals shaped like a spaceship, and other old ass pedals with funky footswitches, like the Superfuzz with the big rubber pad over the switch.

This.

Big stomp switches, making them easy to hit and you can stomp 2 at once for easy switching between pedals.

+1 I don't think anything will ever beat the Boss pedal design, in terms of functionality and ease of use.

i quite like the MXR style and boss pedals mainly for the size. the boss pedals look boring as all hell but i love the practicality of the design as well as the soft feel when pressing it. the mxr design has more room for cool printing

i do agree with the dano pedals but sometimes i find the switches a little sticky, and hard to adjust settings when it's velcro'd down and the knobs are out of sight.

Cannot believe someone stole my idea - except mine was going to mount the switch in the front bonnet and the knobs on the room or boot. The leads would go in the back. Of course they didn't exactly steal the idea since i never publicized it but i do have two muscle car models for this very purpose including a bright green Plymouth Barracuda

I've always thought the Moog pedals looked great.

I like the look of the Strymon stuff too.
