I honestly don't remember ever plugging mine in.

The more pedals I try and listen to, the more I realise this to be true. Which makes me kinda want to by a Kernom Ridge. That one is also expensive ofcourse, but the tweakability and control you get is huge. It just looks so damn... modern, and digital (I know it's not). Pretty, but modern. Ugh.
I / We guitar players are a weird bunch, that's for sure.
(Also, without context, this is a pretty weird thread title. ...Or a great title for a song
)

I don't think thats completely true. There is some "nuance" to the sound of the pedal based on how much of which frequencies are being clipped and not just the EQ curve of the pedal.
It is much more apparent with clean amps being used as a pedal platform, but at some point, with an overdriven amp, the pedal ends up disappearing as the amp overdrives and compresses. At that point the overdrive just becomes an EQ pedal pushing the amp.

There were amazing reviews about Hardwire's version of their reverb pedal. I missed out, and wouldn't mind if they reissued it.

I can’t believe it’s now the most expensive pedal I own
Lol, I hadn't even thought of that...yet! I think I'll continue to keep mine. Its a good pedal...a good pedal, not really a great one, but good enough that I won't be selling it.
Unless they start to go for $1,000! Lol!

I had one in 2006 after all the hype back then. I didn't bond with it and sold it for the $40 I paid for it. I still wouldn't give you $20 for one now.
Back then for roughly the same money the SD1 was the better option in my opinion.

I'm glad my Helix sounds about 10 times better....and has a Rat to boot too!
But in all honesty, it's the player's ears and how they react to whatever they are playing thru.
$600.... or a used Helix LT...hhhmmm. lemme think about that.. lol!

Which is worse in your mind, people asking $650, or or people actually paying $250?

The Bad Monkey is the best sounding tubescreamer type pedal I've ever tried. Being able to boost the bass and treble to compensate for the "mid hump" of the TS is the reason. I don't know why they stopped making them. They seemed to be very popular. Most people on this board seemed to love them.

Since we're discussing discontinued overdrive pedals that have risen in price, how do you all view the Fulltone OCD vs the Bad Monkey?

I bet it would sound great through my$400 Pathfinder 15r.

It's an OK pedal that sits on the floor with the rest of my motley crew of pedals. It does what I want, almost, but I do understand the "blanket over the sound" comment that someone made in this thread. It stays in service because stacked with a DOD 250 type pedal I get the upper end chime/bite that the pedal was lacking. Love the combo with the neck pickup. Love the goofy graphics and the fact that it was one of the first pedals that I actually kinda liked.
