Chank, let me go through my E-mail. Around this time last year I would put a max bid on EBay for pedals (usually my Bid was $35) and I surprisingly acquired pretty cool stuff from that.
Off the top of my head....
1. DOD DEATH METAL (this is actually one of my favorite pedals ever)
2. Digitech DigiDelay ($25 I think was the final?)
3. In this period I acquired my Metalzone (that was the closest to the $35 mark)
4. A couple of old Boss Choruses
Freak Craigslist accident but I got a Boss Bass Chorus, BF-2, and SYB-5 all for $50.
Recently got a Metalcore for $27 (Beleive it or not, if you are into stacking dirt, this one fits in nicely...don't think I would use it as my only dirt).
I love those cheap distortions. I'm all about GAIN! I want the gain turned all the way up and add more! I want all my high gain pedals to go on a train to Gainesville and have an orgy in gain. When I lift weights I want even more GAIN! Then I watch PAIN & GAIN with my pedals with the gain turned all the way up....FUCK!
