Have You Bought Any Pedals Lately In 2026?

[dronerstone]

I just bought a PLXFX Hommie edition Bion Boost for a buddy that doesn’t understand the concept of an ‘always on pedal’. He’s gonna see…

Great idea, always on treble boost is something that sticks once you try.

Homme or Iommi...?

Hommie…was a build for another forum and the ‘hommie’ thing was an inside joke there.

This arrived today from Latvia, and my Recoder is scheduled to ship out the second week of May.

I bought some used ZVex pedals recently.

I just got the Mastotron in today. I haven’t had a chance to play it yet, but have liked playing through one in the past.

I've been eyeing the Mastotron for years...

If Zach ever decides to do a vertical variant, I'll have to jump on it.

That was my problem with the two zvex pedals I had. Horizontal 1590bs with side mounted jacks, they took up so much space on my board.

The last and only pedal I bought in 2026 was the VP4 all the way back in January.


I need to catch up!

I haven't bought a pedal in 2026 yet. My last pedal purchase was a dd-500 back in November

Honestly; I am geared out right now. So even saying I should buy a pedal of some sort I don't have any idea what in the world I would buy? Maybe an AM4 I don't need Don't feel bad!

Apart from a new reverb pedal there's not a lot I really want and tbh I'm not sure I actually need a new reverb pedal.

I'm writing and playing a lot at the minute. I find I'm less interested in buying stuff when I'm in that mode. My home pedalboard has loads of stuff on it but my rehearsal/gigging board is pretty stripped down.

Stripped down to the essentials is best. Especially if you are being musically productive vs. tone or gear chasing. You have the bonus ability of being able to build whatever pedal you want as well; so that probably is a nice little tidbit to hold on to

Ah, well if we add pedals I've built then there's been a few.
