Worst Pedal Names?

Post by Blood_mountain »

I saw this pedal on IG the other day, didn't see a post for terrible pedal names, so decided I'd post it and start one. Worst pedal names? This one is pretty baaaaaaaaad.

Inb4 sharky says he loves the name of that pedal enthusiastically and provides some weirdo Japanese pedal with an opaquely racist name that was only in production for 17 minutes in 2003.

Raptio. I have no idea what they were going for, or if perhaps it was just lost in translation, but it's a gross fucking name and I won't use M.A.S.F. pedals as a result.

Most food-themed names (DOD and Danelectro, lookin' at you), most EHX pedals, KMA with their mythical/exotic names that nobody can remember. They also have one called Logan, lol.

I tried using Google Translate to figure out what raptio means, it didn’t translate. Is it rape?

raptio is nasty. Had no idea. Wasn't there a pedal that was akin to "wet pussy"?
