I got my first rat for free in 1999 and it was the first pedal I ever truly bonded with. I used to try to bond with other flavor of the week boutique dirt pedals but always ended up coming back to the rat. Now I don't even try.Shadoweclipse13 wrote:RAT's are amazing.

Re: top 10 pedals you own.
I don't own many right now, not many boutiques but in order of favorites:
1. EHX Holy Grail Reverb (Big Box)
2. MXR Carbon Copy Analog Delay
3. Danelectro Chicken Salad Vibrato
4. EHX Bad Stone Phaser
5. Fulltone OCD
6. Proco Rat 2 Distortion
7. Boss DD-3 Digital Delay
8. DBA Fuzz War (I'd rate this higher, but it's too insane to play in the house when my wife is home)
9. EHX Soul Food (great as a boost, good low gain overdrive)
10. Boss CS3 Compressor.Sustainer (It would be top 5 if it weren't so damn noisy)
I have a Morley Alligator Volume Pedal that I love for swells, before my reverb and delay, that I love when I play in stereo.
Edit: Picked up a Whammy V in a trade. That will be moving up the list very quickly.
My top 5 are probably because they sound great in my 68' Bronco (Vibro-Champ) with my Jazzmaster at lower volumes which is how I play 90% of the time. The bottom 5 kick ass with my AC-15, or when I stereo or wet/dry both amps.

Re: top 10 pedals you own.
2013
Now:
1) Rangemaster - it's just magical. On it's own... goosing other pedals... I don't know what else to say
2) Death by Audio, Ghost Delay - takes care of having more than one delay on board, and it has really dirty repeats
3) Death by Audio, Reverberation Machine - dirty, dirty, dirty reverb. Mmmmmmmmm
4) Smallsound/Bigsound, Mini - zero-out the bias, dime the volume and set the gain to "broken"
I still have the Malekkos, but the DBAs are really doing it for me, right now.
I have a bunch of on/off pedals, but also have long-standing relationships with:
Distortion + (now modded)
Harmonic Percolator
Rat
SSBS, Fuck
and believe it or not, the EHx Freeze.

Mooer Black Secret Distortion
Ibanez BC9 Bi-Mode Chorus

Re: top 10 pedals you own.
I don't even have that many, but my ARC Effects Big Green is all the fuzz I need, and it's earthshaking on bass. I got comments about it after nearly every show of my old band.
I also would miss my Ibanez TS-7 and my amp-fx Micro Amp clone. That's about it. Maybe that nice Behringer analog delay. I'm really into effects in theory, but don't use them much in practice.
