A little glow-in-the-dark nail polish or model paint goes a long way...

I noticed that on my Micro Chorus when I had it. The 10 Band EQ also lights up. And I loved the Tone Lok Echo that I had. It sounded okay, but the locking knobs was amazing.

I also like the Ler LaLonde method of putting arrows on the pedals. When all of them are facing up, then you know you've dialed in the tone again.

I have been playing MXR since 1980 and I never noticed it. Freaky.

or at least very nice level marks on all knobs - 1 through 10 kinda thing then smaller 0.5 ones. I like to write down settings and it's hard with some pedals that have like no markers. and the pedals with 5 knobs and no labels on them...ugh, don't get me started.

Have you seen these http://www.pedallabels.com/

I am surprised no one has come up with a locking knob. Sort of pull up to adjust, and then push down to lock. You see guys with tape all over the knobs, and I always think there has to be a way to lock them.

Ibanez did it with the Tone Lok Pedals

I like the one on the new SD Vapor Trail.



I discovered the MXR glow in the dark knobs a few years ago, and couldn't believe I'd never noticed it before.

If nothing else I miss my old Phase 90 for that.

Have you ever noticed that the stripe on MXR knobs is glow-in-the-dark?

I was bringing my gear in from the car yesterday and left my pedals sitting in the sun for a minute. When I got to the jam room, I saw the knobs glowing in the dim light. I suppose this could be very helpful when bright stage lights go off.

I've been playing MXR pedals forever, but somehow I've never noticed this until recently.
