OK, the corollary thread.

Post you favorite Art/Graphics or industrial design for a Guitar Pedal

Here's mine

Best Art/Graphics? This will be hard to top

BEST INDUSTRIAL DESIGN?

I'll go Origin Revivaldrive

 

[Drak]

I always wanted this put on a pedal.
One can hope.

It's clean, bold and all about the candy apple red paintjob.

(note: many people associate EVH with this; incorrect - it is a Keely-modded BOSS Distortion type circuit - 1978 was the 1st year of the BOSS Distortion pedal)

It's got an evil Wilford Brimley and Diabeetus.

'nuff said.

The original and gallery series of Catalinbread's Sabbra Cadabra are killer.

The original grail:

I'm a sucker for stuff that looks like vintage console gear:

This one is a vintage device that looked like a retro device at the time: (a 1970's pedal that looks like a 1960's turntable/TV console)

The new holy grail

I also like line drawings on pedals. Pretty much anything by Walrus, Caitlinbread and Earthquaker Devices are pretty cool IMO.

I also dig groovy retro style.

Always thought this one was way nicer looking than the Line6 variant.

 

[Lucius Paisley]

I think the response to this pedal was an overreaction, it's really kind of cute.

I have nothing to offer but sincere love for this delicious thread.

When you put it in that context.... yessir it's world class beaut!

 

[Mincer]

I've never tried that delay pedal, but I am a big fan of the Line 6. The Vox looks way cooler. I wonder how it compares to today's mega delays, too.

 

[Bogner]

I like these pedals. Colors, fit and finish, simplicity in some cases. All great stuff IMO.

 

[Bogner]

Gotta love this beauty!

Interesting that this pedal probably makes BOTH best and worst looking pedals -definitely in the eye of the beholder

Yeah, that's one of the ugliest designs I've ever seen. Needs truck nuts and some random useless camouflage. Also, chrome knobs on pedals suck balls . . . you can't ever see the settings when it's even slightly dark on a stage.

I know a lot of people that feel it's the best looking thing ever... not my cup of tea.

I do think these keep getting more valuable, as pedals with 12AX7 pre amp circuits have basically been proven unneeded with modern pedal designs -so these will get rarer and rarer.

The first pedal I ever built from scratch was a 12AX7 overdrive pedal.... but nothing as good as this pedal.
