Didn't you get the memo?

IdiotBox tourbox should not be used for inter-office memorandum.

jrmy sent me a pretty rad TPS report.

D.o.S., I believe you have my stapler.

I drove by a place called intertek today, made me pretty happy

First off I'd like to thank Chankgeez for putting this together and of course Matt at Idiot Box for the shirt (Which is awesome) and letting these pedals go to all of us. Very cool and pretty fantastic.

Overall these pedals felt solid, the paint and graphics were top notch (Loved the way some of the lights were integrated with the graphics) and the boxes/packing were phenomenal.

Unfortunately, my reviews are based off of bedroom playing, and some headphones. Band has pretty much broken up and I wasn't able to get anywhere where I could crank the volume. I was hoping to get together with some friends but it never panned out. Also, it usually takes me a while to really get into new pedals and it's been pretty busy for me. Good for work, bad for time...

I'm playing Fender Precision Bass and, unfortunately, still don't have a expression pedal. I'm lame.

I really liked The Blasteroid. A LOT. It seemed to keep much more of the low end and I agree with MSU when he said it is "thick and doomier". It's REALLY good with a Bass. To me, it sounded a little bit different then your normal fuzz pedal and in a good way.

The Mad Doctor Stutter might be my favorite out of the bunch. I had a lot of fun playing with this and wish I had a little more time putting it in various spots on my pedal board. My guess is it's probably tons of fun with the expression but... I wouldn't know because my dumb ass still doesn't have one. Overall I really liked this one

The Lazer Fuzz was cool. I love anything Star Wars so I'm a little bias. But, I couldn't get a lot of low end out of it. From a bass standpoint, without a blender, this isn't something that I'd personally use but I doubt it was designed with a bass in mind anyway. To be fair, I didn't spend a lot of time with it either so YMMV.

DeathRay was probably came in a close second and is neck and neck with the Blasteroid (I really love all 3). It was tons of fun. This is another I would have like to move around my board more. I thought it did well on bass and seemed to play well with other pedals. Again, I wish I had an expression pedal but this is another pedal I'll likely buy so I'll be able to do that down the road.

The Orange Cycle was something I wasn't even going to try until I posted. As it turns out, it was probably the most fun. I could have spent the whole time screwing around with it. I had NO idea what I was doing but it was still fun. At one point I was able to sync it up with a drum machine and it was damn near heaven. Then I tried to add a pedal and lost it. Haha Still... Tons of fun and it made me want to chase it again. I don't have a use for it right now for anything other then just sitting in my practice room and just playing with it. Which, I may do...

All in all these are fantastic pedals at just about any price point. But... At their current price point borders on crazy. Might be the best value dollar for dollar out there.

Awesome, Waterpilot, thanks for the reviews.

You're welcome. It was my pleasure to organize this for Matt.

Even though Matt doesn't post much, I know he's reading what all you guys're saying and he's happy that all of you enjoyed the tourbox.

Matt rules!!!!

I bought an orange cycle off BST that had some dead LEDs
he fixed it up for free and zipped it right back out to me

I will definitely be buying more idiotbox stuff

Nice work, LaoWiz, that looks like it's gonna be as sick as it sounds.
