I'm going to try the Keeley Super Phat Mod today, which i'll probably end up going for if its as good in the flesh.
OCD on 18V
I'd like to try some of the Bluesbreaker derived pedals like POT/KOT or the JHS Morning Glory. A Mk1 Bluesbreaker is the one pedal I regret selling. Not going to get one now though given the prices they go for. Might build myself something based on a Bluesbreaker.
EQD Palisades, the only drive pedal I've kept since getting Helix (along with 1 juansolo fuzz).
For me its a swiss army knife for colouring and driving an already driven Marshall style amp, be it the victory kraken, old JCM800, amp sims in helix, or whatever ropey backline is provided.
Zoom Hyperlead for crunch to full-on rawkstortion.
Zoom Ultra Fuzz for paint-stripping insanity.
And the sound of some sort of virtual abattoir where digital pigs are slaughtered. Slowly.
Don't talk politics and don't throw stones. Your royal highnesses.
Of course, I should have just said "Valvesporker".
Surely a valves porker is the opposite of a digital pig.
Back when I had an Ultra Fuzz, it made me feel guilt, self-loathing and nausea on more than one occasion, such were the "animal in distress" noises it made.

However, I would like to point out to those that have not experienced an Ultrafuzz before that although digital porcine genocide (that's going on my list of potential future band names btw) is super fun, the Ultrafuzz is capable of way more subtle and useful stuff, I've even used it as a pretty decent clean boost when the Tim had a "issue" mid gig.
Wonderful pedal and leads me to wonder if anyone makes a clone of it? I could use a spare I think as it's getting a bit old now.

You'd need a big box to do it all through-hole.
I wonder what the closest comparable pedal is without going down the route of the rather unpredictable Fuzz Factory?
Isn't it strange how these were once a staple pedal, and now eq pedals are so out of fashion it's odd to see one? They can do so much!
Great fun loves a valvesporker
Those zoom pedals are ace. I sold my metal distortion as I was matching the sound I wanted with a cheaper digitech pedal but it was seriously capable. The ultra fuzz is staying though - good for paint stripping, thick rhythm, dying animal noises and braining any intruders to the house (it's heavier than your average brick).
