Some guy was clearing out a stack of old gear he hadn't used in 20+ years so I bought 5 pedals from him.

First an Aria Diamond Wah. Classic Japanese 70s wah.



Second, a block logo MXR Dynacomp. I was thinking of getting one of these for a while for my cleans.



Third, an original script logo MXR Phase 100. It's a phase 90, PLUS 10!



Fourth, a Boss CE-1. The original chorus pedal that also has switchable vibrato. Been wanting one for years.



Finally, a near mint Boss BD5. One of the most obscure pedals from the early days of Boss and one of the lowest produced pedals by them. It's a cross between a horrendous octave up fuzz, compressor and graphic EQ. You can either run the EQ, EQ+Fuzz or EQ+Compressor. It is one of the most unique sounding pedals I've ever come across.

The BD5 is the most horrendous sounding pedal I've ever come across. It's brilliant. :lol:

I had an MXR phase 45, it was interesting (nice) and very early in my gear history (which is now long LOL). Back then IIRC Blackmore was using 2 x MXR phase 90's (Burn time frame, think "Mistreated"..)

It's basically a phase 90 with 4 different depth settings. So it's got the typical phase 90 sound plus 3 others. I'm really digging it.
