So, being pedal making addicts, I think it's time to wheel out the fruits of your obsession. Mainly because I've just done that and the picture I took vs the one I took a year ago almost to the day is quite shocking!



I also have a box of part made effects and have made quite a few for other people.

But I can stop at any time...

I've got it under control...

EDIT (there are a couple of bought ones in there too)


So, show us your stash!

Well of course... there's no such thing as a pedal building addiction anyway ;) 
I've managed to hit a roadblock of time deficiency lately... :(
Really love your pedal designs man... your website is very cool

Impressive sir. I have to admit that I've started buying pedals... Essentially stuff I can't build myself for one reason or another and just have a massive need to buy. The first two are in the pic above, the Prometheus (mad filter thing) and the Geiger Counter (nastiest fuzz in the whole universe). I also have two more currently on the way from the states, a Rainbow Machine (makes the Prometheus seem sane) and a WET Reverb. I do think I might have a problem. Especially when it comes to the less usable pedals (WET Reverb aside, just heard all the demos of that and *needed* one)...

I love pedals but the buying of them has taken a backseat since eBay came along and meant shops don't bother much with second hand trades and stock, and prices went up and up due to bidding.

Back in the day you could get lots of bargains, now it's hard to do so.

That Ross chorus I have was £15. Ridiculous. It sounds gorgeous.
New pedals intrigue me and I'll only buy digital or stuff I can't make or approximate myself.
I don't think I'd ever buy another analog pedal again especially something drive or fuzz.
Things I'd look at in the future are Strymon one the honeymoon wears off for example.
I've never really been mad on ehx but I like the idea of the freeze, hog and pog series.

Well, before I got into this great hobby this was my pedal board



But since I've been building and I have a loooong way to go to get to Juan these are what I have in order of when I built them. Not on a board yet as I'm building that right now.

I thought that your name was familiar and it suddenly hit me, you are Juansolo from the bkp forum!
Nice stash by the way, I'd hate to be your roadie.

Top to bottom, left to right they go: Bazz fuss with diode toggle and tone switch built into an old reverb tank, Spring reverb unit, BYOC digital delay and ping pong, EHX Cathedral, EHX DMM, Lovepedal babyface tremolo, NAND gate synthesiser, DOD250 with diode toggle and tone switch + some holes, Arduino tap tempo tremolo, BYOC phase royal.

And here's some closer pics:

I'd hate to be Philly Q's roadie. I have this mental image of his house being wall-to-wall wormoth parts...

Totally with you on that, the two new ones coming are digital, as is the WMD. The Promethus isn't but it's mental, utterly barking mad and I've no clue how it does some of the things it does, so I have no problem spending some money on that.
