im really impressed with the Sonic research turbo tuner, and Ive yet to read one bad word from anyone whos tried one.

many to name but if I had to pick one,,the best pedal I got in 08 that was an actual effect was a BJ modded BigMuff,,the finest sounding muff Ive came across.

for utility, the SBEQ

for pure fun, the Dyna Red

for the most amazing lead fuzz tone of my life, the snow white fuzz

and for funky goodness, the snow white auto filter and tiny orange phase....mmm mmmm good!

2008 was the year of GAS-gone-wild for me, my new years resolution is to spend way less time and money dealing with effects and a lot more time playing and practicing... I have a long list of absolutely amazing purchases this year, but I suppose the #1 spot has to go to my Honey Bee. Its what got me started down the BJFE road which has led to much happiness and meeting many cool people :D

Hey Doc! Mine would have to be the Aqua Marine / Sky Blue just barely over the Cliff Hanger.

This is tough, I picked up some really nice pedals this year.

Probly have to go with model H too, but the homeybee and Pine green compressor are pretty close behind. Most of the other pedals I picked up that weren't BJF didn't last.

For sheer nostalgia, the Ibanez Fl-99 flanger I picked up is great... I had one like 10 years ago when I started playing the guitar, so getting one back was great!
