My vote goes to the EQ pedal. I have simple setup to carry around with me to just jam with folks and the EQ pedal always gets packed. I was simply stunned at the quietness of the Danelectro Fish and Chips. I had tried other EQs but they all seemed to add too much hiss. The Fish and Chips does a great job plus they're cheap too.

Re: Most overlooked type of pedal
People would be very surprised to learn how much they can make one guitar sound very similar to another just by tweaking an EQ. I can make my strat sound similar to a tele with the exception of the woody hollowness you get from the tele.
And I can fatten up the strat to sound similar to an LP.
When I learned the value of an EQ before the amp I bought myself a midi controlled programmable parametric/24 band EQ for the main rig. Now I can change the sound of any guitar with a stomp of the foot and don't have to worry as much about other pedals.

The Flanger. Modern Rock has pretty much ruined it but I think with a little bit of time it can be used "tastefully" again.
