[Most Neglected FX on this forum is...]( PhuzzphayzZ · Jan 14, 2023 at 8:22 PM · Replies 75 Talk Box. What say you? Latest: Wild hypothesis for fun: Tubescreamer is simultaneously the least talked about and most talked about pedal here. I haven't seen a thread on the regular old ibanez TS808 ("It doesn't have to be good to be a classic") in ages. There is perpetually an active thread on a TS-derived FOTM overdrive pedal. Maybe not... Forum [Effects, Pedals, Strings & Things]( [Read more](

After a lot of research and listening to online demos and reviews, I've settled on a Big Muff style fuzz as the sound I'm after (no gated, spitty stuff for me). For those with experience with them, which... Forum [Effects, Pedals, Strings & Things]( [Read more](
