Have You Bought Any Pedals Lately In 2025?

Not that I’ve noticed .
It all sounded great the last time I used it on my desk with a

Thanks! Must be something about my power supply it doesn’t like

Carcosa will be in tomorrow. Looking forward to a new fuzz!

I bought a new Mk2 and a pre loved Mk1 .
I only wanted a Mk2 and already have a brilliant Mk1 but for £14 I had to grab it.
Both arrived earlier .

A Polytune 3. Not the most exciting purchase but using my phone was getting annoying. Its buffer will keep me from imagining tone suck as I add to my board, too.

As a pre-birthday gift to myself, I picked up a Peterson StroboPlus HDC Tuner - not exactly a pedal tuner. More like a desktop/workshop tuner.

Also grabbed Walrus Audio's new Xero (Stereo) Polylooper pedal, which is incredible (_EDIT - and was delivered, today, the 8th :-)).

This one seems to have a learning curve, but so many possibilities!

The tuner is heavy, but not as heavy as the StroboStomp HD. It has a built-in lithium ion battery, which supports charging with the included USB C cable, the same sweetened tunings as the StroboStomp, color-adjustable display, metronome, etc., etc.

I wanted to see if I like the display on this tuner is any better than the StroboStomp HD, or if the tracking was any quicker, but haven't really done the acid test comparison between the two, just yet.

So far, the Turbo Tuners are my favorites.

I can never seem to get a decent picture of the display on any of my tuners :-(.

The Plus HDC has a little kickstand (LOL) so you can stand it up on a tabletop or something. It also has a built-in microphone, and you can use a wired clip adapter (not included) for other acoustic instrument tuning (without the microphone (like a violin, etc.). Not sure if I'd put that to use, but one never knows.

I’ve just seen the WA Looper on Andy’s The Week In Gear video .
He just covered what it does a full deep dive video coming.
For me it seems overly complicated with features.

I can tell Im going to have to invest some time to wrap my head around how to effectively use all the features.

I got more phasers like Small Stone and Bad Stone. Just want to hear how they compare to the Phase 90 Script and Block logo.

How are things working out with the Carcosa?

I’ve wondered about the Mesa pedals. What’s the verdict on this guy? Hot rodded tubescreamer or something else?

Estimated delivery day was updated and delivery is now scheduled for tomorrow.

So far so good! I'm loving the mid gain, crunchier tones a lot. Nice balance of bite and compression. I need to put more time into it with other amps but I can already tell it was money well spent.

If I don’t use this regularly I completely forget what’s what and have to ask my son.

Last week’s purchases still on the way-

That damn TC won’t be here until next Monday despite being closer to me than the EVH90, which will be here tonight.

"Have I ever!"

I ordered a EVH Phase 90 this week too but I paid full list price of 129$.
@DrewJD82 how was yours only 79$?
