Yep.
I didn't care for the RAT, but I notice that quite a few people do. Keeley even mods those pedals.
But from my own personal gear: 1. Bespeco Volume pedal: I can't even give mine away! 2. Danelectro Danowah: Cool wah housing, crappy fuzz effect, too many wah presets...what was I thinking? 3. Korg Toneworks 411 fx Superfx multi-effect pedal. I bought the pedal for $200, the programmability function went out on me, and I can't even get Korg to take their product back! The presets still work though... |

Danelectro Wasabi Chorus/tremolo- geez, could NEVER get it to stay at one setting, ever. Pain in the butt knobs, so-so chorus, took forever to get the levels right, and sucked betteries like a DDL... cool lights on the fins, though...
Nobels Tremolo- another pedal that was too cute for its own good-tone control (?) just didn't work right, another level control that needed to get dialed in on every gig, and it would spaz out every once in a while when it was on... BAAAAADDDDDDD pedal! Plenty of others, too, but these were the worst... Franc Robert Back Alley Blues Band

The yellow DOD overdrive/preamp pedal from the early 80s (or maybe it was from the 70s... I got it used in the early 80s). That thing was so awful sounding that I got rid of it and didnt buy another overdrive pedal for 20 years.

Late '70s Big Muff. Worst $36.00 I ever spent. On top of being a signal loading piece of trash it died within two weeks.

I have major hate for my old boss sd-1
depending on its position in the chain it would either do nothing, or turn everything harsh, suck the life out of the tone, and the bottom end magically dissappeared. ugh luckily i managed to sell it for twice what i paid (sale) |

Hey, I have the digitech grunge... and I like it! Actually, I like it for the one thing that it does... and I think it does it very well. It sits comfortably on the shelf waiting to be played. I agree, it is not versatile, but it does what it does.
Oh, yeah... another pedal, almost as bad as the ZOOM I mentioned earlier is a Behringer distortion pedal I tried once. It was so noisy I just could play it. Yuck!

DOD Buzz Box because it sounded like someone put a knife through your speakers and shredded the cones. In fact, the guy showing it to me at the store initially thought there was something wrong with the amp when he first plugged it in to show it to me...

Blackbox X-Ray.
Someone said something about a modified TS9 circuit, but the volume/gain knobs were essentially backwards(forgivable) yet even with full product description it was hard to get a decent drive sound out of it, ending up sounding like "annoying low-gain buzzy dirt". It turned out to be a less-than-clean boost pedal with confusing color options. Unjustifiable $150 flipped as soon as I could find a buyer. |
